Triumph Tiger 800 XC 2017

The new edition of the Tiger 800 XC can be considered quite successful. Even the "conventional" version can do much more than its predecessor thanks to the ride-by-wire system and standard traction control and ABS (both can be switched off). However, if you want to venture off-road more often, which is definitely what the designers had in mind thanks to the large wheels and spoke rims, you should choose the Tiger 800 XCx, which costs just under 1000 euros more. Thanks to the freely selectable riding modes, the x-version can be optimally tuned to the respective terrain. In addition, there is an engine guard, self-resetting turn signals, cruise control, main stand, underride protection, an additional 12V socket and hand protectors - which probably more than justifies the extra charge.

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2020

It's impressive how well the bike manages the balancing act between on- and off-road, doing exactly what a touring enduro should be able to do, or what you still want to do with a touring enduro. And it does so with a degree of maturity that is astonishing for a new model and shows that Triumph has done its homework and has sensibly further developed the already underrated Tiger 800. Even if some die-hard Tiger fans may miss the now less pronounced, typical whistle of the three-cylinder. The question of whether the Tiger 900 Rally Pro is ready for the road can only be answered with a "when do you want to go again?

Three-cylinder engine full of character

significantly improved off-road capability

comfortable suspension elements

quickshifter with blipper as standard

generous standard equipment, even heated seats for rider and passenger

good ergonomics

good wind and weather protection

long-distance capability.

Handguards not very robust for off-road use

flood of switches on left handlebars
