Triumph Ranking List Got Me Like… Really?

Surprised the Tiger 900 was ranked as low as it is. And the Tiger 1200 didn't get a glowing review. It seems the reviewer has a preference for naked bikes.

 

Well...... if you have read any of my previous comments on my ownership experience you'll know I wouldn't have the Triumph 400's anywhere near the top of the list.... no. 3?.... No way!

 

The difference in time for the F1 qualifying is often around 1 second from first to last place .... a tiny difference

This ranking of the Triumph motorcycles feels the same

Except that I disagree strongly on the 400 being #3

 

Purely subjective opinion in my view and should be taken as a purely entertaining read. How could anyone say the Bobber is the "least loved" of all Triumphs when it is one of (if not THE) best seller in the whole range?
Someone who yearns after a Bobber is not likely to want a ST 765RS. Horses for courses as they say. Doesn't mean one is "better" than the other.

 

I think the author, Stephen, just wants people to talk about him and he's succeeded.
None of his points have any back up and are just his opinion.
Probably the only accurate thing was the Street Triple at the top.

 

Has any one asked what sponsorship he gets from some brands as it influences his decision. Load of old Blarney.

 

Hi Joseph, it seems to me you're fishing for something here. Mind filling us in on your interest in all this?

 

I don't have the experience to order all of these bikes, but thought I'd have a bash at a top 5, based on bikes I like and bikes friends have..... and the admission that I've never had or wanted a really big capacity bike....

1. Tiger 660 - I really like the look and size of this bike, if I was to buy another Triumph this would probably be the one
2. Bonneville range - class leading retro
3. Street Triple 765 - they just seem to be very good!
4. Trident 660 - in the jet black colour scheme for me....
5. Scrambler 1200 - a bit big, but I like scramblers!!

Well Triumph fans, am I way off?

 

Nothing like a balanced, fair review eh!

 

Probably agree with the #1 choice - the Street Triple is a near-perfect bike. Surprised not to see the T120 somewhere near the top as well, and otherwise it seems to me that it's horses for courses.

 

Getting a security warning on that site - be careful folks...

Oh, and reading it after blocking some stuff, I think the author just took his preferences and rant them through Chat GPT (other LLMs are available)
