dat dash… Hope it is possible to, at least, make do with those awful white lines… what were they thinking!!!?
"suspormance" it's a new word ! We need to make it stick ! ( re around 8:00 ish )
I had a 1050 sport it was a great bike ,only sold it as it got to heavy to hold up as i got older
Looking forward to trying one of these
Bring back the good old Needle and a small TFT . or go full TFT. but this looks like shit. the white lines surrounding the dashboard lights and the shiny finish. how can Triumph be so out of touch with the market regarding displays? I am also really not liking the one function only cruise control as well as the buttons cluster finish. I hope If we buy this one because it does answer a need of the market, to see it one day upgraded to what it deserves.
2 major things that would make me buy this over a tracer 9: It looks better, and it probably handles better.
Another top review, i felt i was riding the bike .
Best regards from Austria, Vienna. Ordered one already in November. Waited for a test a long time. Thx a lot !!
This is looking like a perfect every day bike
Great review, can you adjust the cruise control with the buttons?
Thanks for the review! A friend of mine is thinking of trading his 660 for the better touring chops of the 800. Do you recall 6th gear rpm at 70mph/110kph?
I'm in the market for my first ADV motorcycle this year. So far, the CFMOTO 800MT-X is top on my list but I'll definitely look at this bike as well. Thanks for the review.
why do manufacturers think this is better than a proper tach with a needle?
Cockpit looks horrible, doesnt look like a 2025 bike.
I understand the built to a price but the dash is unforgivable. Maybe on an RS version? But when? 2026 may be too late?
I wish triumph would just come back with the Trophy
Worth a look.
Can’t wait for the Trident 800!
A shame that the first machines to be delivered will suffer from the usual Triumph problems : mapping to be optimised, saddles, lighting.
To be purchased next year
What is that green indicator that is constantly illuminated?
That would be really annoying, especially at night!
I just wish Yamaha wasn't being stingy keeping the GT model away from North America for absolutely no good reason.
What is the minimum speed at which cruise control works? I use it to avoid speeding tickets in city riding.
Hi Dan great videos.
I own Tracer 9GT with a standard seat which is pretty awful. You mentioned you own one with the comfort seat. Is there much difference between the two? Is it worth changing to the comfort seat?
<3
Great bike. Being the owner of a Tracer, and obviously just going on the video, I would still go to the Tracer. Why? Pillion seat doesn't look good enough and lack of center stand.. I go two up riding a lot. Why manufacturers have slowly got rid of center stands amazes me. It makes common sense in maintaining the bike..
I've said it on another video, it's criminal that they've used that dash. The thing is, they'll likely sell loads of these, so Triumph wont care what people think about it. I'm going to go and have a look at this when I can just to see if it's as bad as I remember. I had a Trident 660 for years and the dash suited that bike, and it was a £7.2 bike.
Have they made the 1st gear "normal" on this one, instead of comically low like on the 660? I really hope they have.
The triumph doesn't compare in reliability and service access if needed
Hahaha. You’ve not ridden a Tracer then. Nice to see Triumphs taken 10 years to copy it though 😂
Dan. Can you adjust the speed with the cruise control? Or does it need to be turned off, then adjust your speed and reset it?
