The Tiger 800 XRX was removed from the Triumph website. It is an outgoing model, and the replacement Tiger 900 is more expensive.

Have you looked dealer websites or contacted any to see if there are still any in stock? Normally discontinued models are removed by manufacturers before the remaining stock has cleared.<br />

You clearly want the Tiger, and if if comes with a full set of luggage which you will need to add to the Suzuki, so that will make a reasonable reduction in the price difference. And if you are planning to buy new then I assume you want a bike so live with for a long time. So if it is the one you really want and it feels comfortable, and you can actually afford it, then the higher price will be worth it to avid the constant regret of compromising. So get the Tiger.<br />
<br />
On the issue of buying new, this came up recently on another forum. My position always was that if you buy something new then you have to deal with the effort of breaking it in and, often, the various warranty repairs to get in in perfect road condition.<br />
<br />
Better to let someone else go through all that, and it seemed most others felt the same way. Thankfully not everyone, as the market needs people willing to spend their time and money to prepare bikes for it. So I would either recommend low mileage used, or thank you for your sacrifice.</div>
