My friend Dave at DC Rogers Motorcycles is not a great fan of the modern triumph, although we agree that there are 'things' that you can do to them to improve their performance. Servicing is fiddly, which is its biggest downfall.

 

I have an airhead GS 1000 (c 1987 model) and it has been pretty faultless for the 25 years that I have owned it. That's a plus to start with! It is now worth what I paid for it in 1990 which is another plus and it took me for a 300 mile run recently with a fresh tank of fuel having sat for a year in the shed. Another plus.

 

You are TALL so a newer GS would suit you but you'd have to do a lot of leg work to find a nice one. You'd love the ride and performance too.

 

Try both and see?

 

There is a big movement in custom motorcycles which means there are lots of specialist bits and pieces around to allow you to fettle your bike to exactly how you want it.

As soon as my insurance goes down after a couple of years NCD I will upgrade my tiger 800 for the big Triumph Adventurer or the big GS what would you say is the better bike?
