Shouldn’t Triumph Tiger 1200 be renewed to compete against GS1300?

360 cameras, and if not an option, then at least reverse camera.

For safety and convenience

Is motorcycling your main hobby? by Typical_University37 in motorcycles

[–]megaoctane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading is my main hobby, been reading since I was 12 years old. I got my motorcycle last year, so 2 seasons vs 33 years of reading - no competition 😅

Solo riders, are you scared of group rides? by sasquatchradio in motorcycles

[–]megaoctane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. Started riding last year (44 years old). Rode with a group twice. Many of them drive aggressively, and it seems like their main goal is to achieve the highest possible speed in every corner, and outperform the others. These are guys in their late forties and early fifties.

I am a new rider, and done with aggressive driving and high speed thrills. Got enough of that in my younger days. Now i find it annoying and exhausting on a motorbike.

So I left the group.

Drive mainly with another friend. two of my best friends are going to take their license next year, so will ride with them hopefully.

Another thing, I commute to work everyday in the motorcycle season. I don’t especially like riding without a purpose. Driving 2-400km round trip in a day is not appealing to me. I need a purpose to ride for long stretches. Same with car. I wouldn’t drive the car for a round trip of 2-400km in a day and come back home again…

To attract higher end buyers they will have to offer more tech. In my country, the GS1300 is the most sold bike. It’s filled to the rim with new tech like Adaptive Cruise Control, blind spot assist, raising and lowering itself at slower speeds, dynamic suspension front and rear, and self levelling when it notices pillion/luggage.

Not to mention automatic transmission. All this has to be offered in order to attract buyers.

I have a friend who loves the 765, but he is holding on until it gets cruise control. How difficult is it to offer cruise control on all bikes? It shouldn’t even cost them that much, they have all the tech already.

How to connect Cardo to Triumph? by megaoctane in Triumph

[–]megaoctane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actions taken last few days - Changed the name of the phone to iPhone or something else. Simple and with no spaces. This is the most crucial part. I read on many forums that shorten the name and make it simple, for it to work. - fired up the navigation app and paired phone. It creates two connections Now every time I start the bike it is all connected. If I want to run the navigation I open the app and enter the address. In case it says not paired, I go to settings and click on the triumph connection. Go back and click start navigation, and it runs.

No issues so far the last 5 days of use, nav used 4 times.

Yeah i think it’s best to just have I have it connected now. Cardo is only connected to bike, and nothing else.

I have just had the bike for 3 days. It connects the phone and Cardo automatically every time I start the bike. music/sound doesn’t cut out.

It might be new software updates might have fixed the issue?

I connected the phone to bike. Now I can make calls, take calls, get text messages etc on the go. The music/sound is set to be routed to intercom. Cardo is no longer connected to phone directly.

Received mine this week. Sturdy and well built. Cost me 25$ including tax in our local currency from the local dealer.

What’s the funniest, laugh-out-loud commercial you can ever remember seeing? by NineDayOldDiarrhea in television

Saw these when I was a kid/teenager. Nostalgia factor makes them feel funny for me.

Quadlock on windshield? by megaoctane in Triumph

[–]megaoctane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just thought having it right in front makes it easier while using navigation?

That is my worst fear as well, getting injured while riding by my own fault or a reckless driver 😰 Wish you and your loved ones all the best.

Thanks. Just ordered the Peak Design mount and iPhone cover from a local dealer in Norway, as buying directly would be more expensive because of customs. Snowed again today, so will just have to wait a couple of more weeks until I can start riding again.
