Frequently asked

What is the seat height of the Triumph Tiger 900?
The Triumph Tiger 900 has a published unladen seat height of 32.3 inches (82 cm). Under your weight the suspension sags roughly 1.8 inch, so the effective height you reach is a little lower.
Can short riders flat-foot the Triumph Tiger 900?
You can plant both feet flat on the Triumph Tiger 900 from roughly a 30.0-inch inseam, and get the balls of both feet down from about 29.1 inches (in riding boots). Below that you're on tiptoes.
Can the Triumph Tiger 900 be lowered?
Yes. Off-the-shelf lowering options exist for the Triumph Tiger 900 — lowering links, a lower seat, or a suspension lowering kit can typically recover around an inch and a half, often enough to move a tiptoe fit to balls-of-the-feet.
