Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2022

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2022

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?

Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally PRO 2023

Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally PRO 2023

The Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Pro can do more than you think in many respects. Its chassis can cope with more, the chassis gives more confidence and stability and the engine has more smoothness, especially at the bottom. This is how the Briton conquers the Bosnia Rally as the best bike in the heavyweight class (around 250 kilograms). Above all, the suppleness with which it masters slopes, dirt roads and rocky passages set it apart from the competition. The electronics are also pleasantly restrained, the brakes are user-friendly and, on top of that, the ergonomics are perfect for both tall and short riders when the bike is stationary. If you prefer big touring enduros and like to swap the road for the trail, the Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Pro is the perfect choice.
