Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to intermediate to experienced riders who want a capable adventure bike without the intimidating bulk of larger ADV machines.
PurposeBuilt primarily as an adventure-touring motorcycle that handles long highway stretches, twisty backroads, and light-to-moderate off-road trails with equal competence.
Rider FitThe tall 19-inch front wheel setup and adjustable seat height demand decent inseam and confidence balancing a mid-weight bike at low speeds, especially off-road.
CharacterA refined, torquey triple-cylinder engine gives it a distinctive character that blends smooth road manners with genuine adventure capability.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking outright sportbike speed or a lightweight, nimble commuter for tight urban environments.

2015 Triumph Tiger 800 Xcx Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 845mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2015 Triumph Tiger 800 Xcx, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 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.
