2018 didn't have much competition in the 800 ish cc class of off road oriented Adventure bikes. It was the first year of Triumph's 3rd generation Tiger 800, and XCA was the most well equipped off road oriented version of the middleweight Tiger. It's only other direct competition was the BMW F 850 GS Adventure. The next closest competitor was the KTM 1090 Adventure which was lighter and more powerful. There was also the Honda Africa Twin in 1000 cc, Compared to these other bikes, I think the only one that really bested it was the KTM 1090 Adventure. I think the Tiger was geared slightly too high, so I recommend dropping two teeth on the rear sprocket for lower speed technical prowess, and upgrading the rear shock. The display was great. after 15k miles I never had a problem. I recommend installing upper crash bars so you don't have to worry about damage when you crash. Engine is fun and exhilarating. Handled all trails. The KTM 1090 Adventure was the one to beat in performance, but I loved the overall package of the Triumph Tiger 800. Show less

When I first purchased my 2005 Saxon Broadsword in 2007, I would have given it 1 star. The Stater was bad, the engine shook so hard I had to remount the gas tank, and the bottom end made a lot of noise - this was at 4800 miles. Now, this bike is perfect. Rebuilt the engine 1000 miles ago and sent it to the S Show less

This motorcycle has been a joy to own. Originally purchased from a family friend who bought it new and after deployment overseas decided when she returned not to ride anymore. I made extensive upgrades to it for light touring around Arizona. I had some wonderful rides on weekends when I was working and for a while before and after Covid when I retired. I really want to ride more but I am turning 73 soon and I am concerned that my motor skills just aren't where they should be for safe riding. This bike still has many miles of wonderful riding experiences left in her. Anyone looking for a comfortable easy riding light touring bike for weekend trips will not be disappointed. Show less

Rides like a dream. Rides like a new bike with the retro look and feel. After upgrading the air intake and exhaust the 700cc motor really opened up. The top end is a real treat. Thank you for listening Yamaha. Show less

Since the day I purchased the motorcycle from Harley Davison it has been an absolute beast and pleasure to ride. I have had no issues nor qualms with the bike. Originally it was a $30,000 motorcycle, but purchasing used is a great buy and value for money. Super easy to charge and superfast. Show less

I really like my bike I had several different Yamaha dual Sports and this one I like a couple things I don't like is one they took away all kick starts that's idiotic for any kind of bike that's on the dirt you never know when that battery is going to go dead and two I don't think I have too much torque as I'd like 240 but still at 250 should be able to at least pop up on command. All else is pretty good I like it quite bike nice bike Show less

It is a 2021 can am Ryker rally 900 edition ace. I love the bike handles amazing. Top of the model when I bought it. It was brand new when bought. Stayed in garage every winter and on battery tender too. New battery and oil change every year. No accidents. I am the only owner. No recalls last time I knew. Has windshield does not come with it when I bought it so I installed it. Comes with outside tarp and a 5xl helmet. I don’t think there is nothing I don’t like about it. Show less

I'm a 25 year experienced off-road rider/racer, now retired. Decided to try Adventure riding with friends. Bought this bike on a suggestion and found I couldn't be happier. This isn't a "beginner" or "woman's" bike as some suggest. Yes, it needs improvement from its stock form, tires, gearing, and ECU, and one can go on from there. But we all put our personalities into our rides and this is no different. I ride alongside T7's, KDX's, and others. Yes, 650's and up can out-power me but none of them out perform this 390 once it's set up. Mine is and if yours isn't, spend the time to do it. You'll find it a keeper. And yes, KTM has filed for bankruptcy but they're not going anywhere. Their reorganization will see to that. You probably won't be able to buy a new bike for a while but parts and supplies, and dealerships will be there for us current KTM owners. The bankruptcy concern is overplayed. If you have a KTM, keep it and ride it. Show less
