Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW S 1000 XR 2019

The S 1000 XR, with its now 165 hp Supersport power unit combined with the geometry and comfort of a Bigenduro, is one of the fastest motorbikes on the public road. The extensive range of accessories makes it even faster or even more comfortable, as required. However, with a seat height of 840 mm and a long crotch arch, it is only conditionally suitable for smaller riders. The 790 mm high seat, however, remedies this. The brakes are as strong as the engine, the XR convinces with precision and above all stability. Despite the insane performance, you feel well and safe, as you would expect from a BMW.

Good things take time, they say. Triumph has kept to this and with the Tiger 900 GT Pro has put a motorbike on the cast rims that continues the long, successful path of the 800 with many detail improvements and is just as much a practical everyday motorbike as it is for extended tours and trips. The Triple has become sharper and yet is still a harmonious unit with which even beginners can do no wrong without boring the experienced motorcyclist. And that's thanks to sufficient suspension travel on roads of the most varied qualities as well as quite moderate off-road passages. There was little to complain about in our first impression, but we will certainly take a closer look at the Tiger.
