Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with some prior experience, as the punchy triple engine and sporty chassis reward confident throttle control.
PurposeA sport-touring machine designed to blend fast, engaging road riding with real-world comfort for longer journeys.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and manageable 218 kg dry weight make it approachable for most average-height riders, though the mass is still noticeable at low speed.
CharacterEnergetic and confident, with a characterful in-line three engine that pulls strongly toward high RPM and a chassis that feels eager in corners.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for off-road adventures or absolute beginners seeking a low-key, forgiving first bike.

2015 Triumph Tiger Sport Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 835mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2015 Triumph Tiger Sport, with a relaxed knee angle of around 130 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.
