Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to riders with at least a couple of years of experience, given its power, weight, and tall adventure-bike stance.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a long-distance, all-road touring machine that can handle everything from motorway miles to light gravel trails.
Rider FitAt 244 kg dry with a lowered 790mm seat option, it's manageable for most body types but still demands decent strength and confidence at low speeds and when off-road.
CharacterA refined, torquey triple-powered adventure tourer that blends strong performance with plush electronic suspension and premium comfort.
Not Ideal ForNot the ideal choice for a beginner rider or someone wanting a light, flickable bike for tight city commuting or serious technical off-roading.

2021 Triumph Tiger 1200 Xrx Low Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Triumph Tiger 1200 Xrx Low, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
