If this is true from the Triumph Facebook page and also thanks to markbvt & walker from the Triumph Tiger 800 Forum, then I know Cheryl & I waited for a reason to see what Triumph would do with this great bike. Now…did they or will they add handlebar controls and ambient temperature with on/off ABS button????
Tubeless spoke tires? Notice the loss of the Nissin brakes and the fact Triumph has join the band wagon using BREMBO??? BMW uses Brembo brakes. I would say in my remedial knowledge this is a step up.
Triumph has been listening! Good on Triumph! Apparently this was indeed at the show in Italy…so, the next question is this a real release bike or just for show? Any thoughts? Comments, opinions??
***I believe that some folks from Triumph might be still be reading this BLOG…why not post comments to them…who knows they might read this post! ;-)***
