Triumph Tiger Explorer XC 2013

Triumph Tiger Explorer XC 2013

The Triumph Tiger Explorer XC is a stately motorbike that already signals when stationary that it does not necessarily want to be abused as an entry-level machine. The bulky fairing therefore fits very well with the overall character of the British men's motorbike.

Light handling

agile

fun to ride

direction changes made easy

flawless functioning of the brakes

upright seating position.

The big Tiger cannot rely on a particularly low centre of gravity,

Honda VFR1200X Crosstourer 2013

It's not for people crossing Africa, but it is for people crossing Europe. Great travelling comfort - a mixture of tourer and touring enduro. The engine drives it like the brochure promises "V4 with 1200 cc" - actually wasteful.

Powerful four-cylinder engine

innovative looks

pleasant driving experience

fascinating technology

high performance.

Large overall weight

irritating concept

somewhat boring design.
