Return to Biking

[weebriso]

Hi,

having sold my Tiger 800 six years ago to start road cycling ( I know mad  ) I am looking to return to the scene.
I am looking at the latest Tiger 800 XCA 2018 - 2019.

My question is I see a few of these in marine blue 2017 so is this the year that they came out?

Also due to these lock downs I cannot see any in the flesh so what colour looks best? ..thanks.

My 2018 Xca is in Red. Looks great.

If it's the same as the one on the cover of the current Nacelle magazine, yes it does 

[Grumps]

Yes. That’s the one.

Yes, I have a 2018 model XCA which was first registered in 2017.
The 2018 models were released in November 2017 and have the full LCD instrument display and LED lights & indicators.
Which colour is best? I say marine blue but that’s just mine is

Thanks for that info yes nice bike👍.. torn between marine blue and red myself 😁

One other thing I would say about the Marine Blue is that it’s not blue, blue.
It’s a sort of semi mat metallic Blue-Green and, depending on the light, looks at times more green then blue and at other times more blue than green.
A curious colour but I like it!

Agreed. Shame Triumph didn't offer this colour on the 900, I would have bought one...............
