And ah still wudnt get a Trophy
Too many electrical conflict fr cheep chinese sensors .
And honestly every triple I have heard including me own that has more than 15k on it sounds like a bag of rusty anchor chains being dragged around by a sony JCB .
Even WMB Ditch pumps sound better ...
And DON'T get me started on Triumph gear boxes !!!!

Water ingress ..  me an me m8 for the 3rd year in a row in Alps and it pissed down .. is 05 tiger clocks FLOODED speedo chucked it as did the Rev counter .. fuel gauge was 1 min full then arf then empty etc .. idiot lights all on then winkING ... mine was a 10 plate .. same problem .. if Tripe motorcycles can't seal down a long standing model like the tiggur a more cplicated Trophy has NO chance
. Nor the EXPLODER

Have tested the Trophy each year since it came out.
It is top heavy, better two up and definitely needs the correct suspension  set up dialing into it to get the best from it.
Has a 'cheap' feel to it - feels and looks like a 1977 Allegro dashboard.
The onboard computer is a nightmare to use.  It is not intuitive and over complex.  The ergonomics are poor.  Setting the cruise control is difficult due to it's position and being on the throttle side.  Other controls on the left 'bar require a thumb the length of a baboons to operate.
It has a slight understeer, but as a tourer it works well handling/chassis wise.
The engine is awesome, pulls well and has character, but has to be worked hard to get the best from it - not unpleasant but could do with being a bit more lazy for a touring bike.
Solo, with the massive dimension top box, it can feel a tad unstable when riding with spirit (!)
Overall I quite liked it, but it isn't a bike I'd have in my garage

love the Allegro a analogy Chris
