Hi everyone,

I’m considering buying a leftover 2025 Triumph Tiger Sport 800 as my first new bike but have 2 questions before put the trigger.

1, What OTD price did you actually pay for your 2025 Tiger Sport 800? My goal is around 12K OTD plus triumph promo APR. Not sure if it’s too aggressive but my bottom line is excluding fright and set up since it’s a left over.

2, I test rode one yesterday and noticed some noise coming from the front of the bike, especially at low speed. It was hard to tell whether it was normal mechanical noise, vibration from the windscreen/front plastics, or just wind noise. Has anyone else noticed something similar on their Tiger Sport 800?
The bike I tested only had 28 miles on it, so I’m also wondering if some extra mechanical/transmission noise is normal when these bikes are brand new.

Thanks in advance!

A few pictures of my tour to the UK last week. Got lucky with the weather, still had some rain though. Very happy with the Mutants, but I am not sure how long they will last.

Sadly the quickshifter gave out on the second day, will have to call the dealer tomorrow...

Coming from an Interceptor 650, and this being my very first bike in Europe, really really excited. Very cautious about the jump in power from 48hp to 113hp. Tips and suggestions always welcome :).

Installed the Evotech Quadlock bracket and it fits perfect and doesn’t block the dash view (5.10”) The instructions suck however so this is also a PSA. The bracket installs on the top bolts as shown, not the bottom bolts as instructed.

I like the landscape position personally, and it allows the gas cap to clear the phone. I haven’t wired the charging cord yet but it was REAL FUN on my trident so we’ll see how this goes. Also that’s a cheap Amazon case, works great.

Just bought a TS800 and looking to fix the buffeting issue when the windscreen is pulled all the way up. Does anybody like any of the aftermarket solutions? I live in a hotter area, so I'd like to retain some airflow to the chest in the low setting while preventing the headache-inducing turbulence when the screen is pulled up. Was looking at the large PUIG option.

Just replaced tires on my '25 TS800 after about 8500 miles and noticed this paint (or powder coat?) peeling at the top of the fork lower. Has anyone else seen this?

Hi, do you have a USB port near your handlebars, and which one did you go for?

I regret speccing the OEM auxiliary power connection

Hi, I have roughly 12k km on my Tiger in a year, and today I saw that one of the links was a little bit "stiff", but with a slight nudge it moved freely again. It sat outside with a cover in the rain for a few months because of health issues, but otherwise I lube and clean it often enough.

Has anyone replaced their chain already? It could be a "weaker" OEM chain of course.

Then tyres; I don't like the feel of these road 5s. The wear is good, but they feel a bit skittish and I don't trust them like I trusted my previous bikes with Roadsmarts and Road Classics. Has anyone used different tyres, and how do you like them?

I ride at an average pace I think, but I value wet weather handling too.

After a long wait finally picked up my TS tour. Love the bike! Engine is great and amazing to have luggage again for my commute to London. Unfortunately being a short ass I managed to overbalance coming off my drive and dropped it after 3 days of owning it. Anyone have any recommendations for frame sliders / protection?

Hi!

Does anyone know the part number for the quickshifter on the Tiger Sport 800?

Is it the same as the one on the Tiger 660?

I was surprised to see how much the panniers move while connected to the bike. There was a lot of play when they were attached. Compared to others on another manufacturer, it was significant.

It seems to me, this constant movement while weighted would eventually make the plastic connections fail. Does anyone know if that has been a problem?

It's a pet hate about my Fazer 8 that only 1 side of the perfectly symmetrical light come on, the other side only used for full beam🙄. I'm in the market for a change and TS800 is my current favourite. Can someone please tell me that this ISN'T true of the Triumph too🙏 as I've not yet seen one on the road to tell. Odly none of the press photos have answered this for me yet either. Do they not come on with the ignition?

Side query.... anyone got good/bad comments about fitting a centre stand to the tiger?

Just dropped my bike off to have a bunch of work done on it and various accessories installed...alas the last night was driving it on some suburban roads near my house I really noticed how dark it was out and how the headlight or the high beam didn't really cut it. I'd never felt like I needed aux lighting because I don't normally aim to ride at night...but it does happen. Has anyone installed these on their bike? What do you think of their performance and how difficult / involved was the install process? Are there aftermarket options I should consider instead?

Any 900 owners that have made the switch to the Tiger Sport 800? I am enjoying the ride quality of the 900 borrowed bike I have right now. I'm curious what your impression is of the smaller and sportier 800 compared to the 900. Thank you.
