Our Verdict
This Triumph Tiger presents a highly con
When inspecting this motorcycle, focus on the condition of the shaft drive and final drive components, which are specific to the 1215cc Tiger variant. Given the mileage, verify that the suspension linkage bearings have been serviced, as these can wear on adventure-style bikes of this weight.
Request a full service history to confirm that the major valve clearance intervals have been completed, as these are significant maintenance milestones for the Triumph triple engine. Ensure all electronic rider aids, such as traction control and ABS, are functioning correctly during a test ride, as these systems are complex and costly to repair.
As a 1215cc machine, this Tiger falls into the higher bracket for insurance, and fuel consumption will vary significantly based on riding style and luggage load. Expect to budget for premium tyres and chain/shaft maintenance, which are essential for safety and longevity.
Road tax for a motorcycle of this age and engine size is fixed, but you should factor in the cost of annual servicing at a Triumph specialist. Total annual running costs, excluding depreciation, are estimated at £1,400-£1,800 depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
While the MOT history is clean, check the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are common wear items that may not be flagged until they reach a critical threshold. Inspect the headstock bearings for any notchiness, which can occur on heavier bikes if ridden on uneven surfaces.
Examine the frame and engine casings for any signs of cosmetic damage or corrosion, particularly around the lower engine mounts. Check the electrical connectors for signs of water ingress, a common consideration for adventure bikes that may have been used in all weather conditions.
First registered in February 2018, this red Triumph Tiger has covered 42,730 miles over its eight-year life. The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT history since 2022, with every inspection resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. Its consistent annual mileage accumulation suggests a vehicle that has been used regularly rather than left standing.
There is no aggregate reliability data available for the Triumph Tiger 1215cc, so buyers should rely on the specific MOT history of this individual unit.
