What bike?

Saw this on BBC news site. My thoughts are a Triumph given the triangular section on the engine casing, any other thoughts?

Looks like a Tiger Sport 1050

old speed triple?

Nope, the triple has two circular sections heading from the head stock to the sub frame mounts, and the pillion pegs are very different.  Yep it is the current Tiger 1050.

Ironic they’re choosing the motorcycle industry to promote an economic growth story when motorcycle sales are down :thinking:

And Triumph are moving more and more production over seas.  :)

Tigger it is.  Assembled here in the UK I think…

Adventure bike sales are the only ones on the up (and I have one too!) Honda NC700X DCT (no way will I take that off road!!!)

Yep, there are few true bikes that you could consider adventure bikes.  Anything with 17" front and rear is not an adventure bike.  What they are is tall-rounders.

I’ve just added to the NC sales :roll_eyes:

any one want a VFR 800 crossrunner?

any bike is an off-road bike. just depends how daft you are
