Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2021

Satisfaction quickly spreads in the saddle of the Tiger. The machine offers an enormously wide range of uses and an over-complete set of features for this class. A really good touring enduro! However, the long suspension travel is a bit of a downfall for sporty riding. At the end of the day, however, this is the only compromise of this otherwise thoroughly successful machine.

Three-cylinder engine full of character

practical off-road performance

comfortable suspension elements

quickshifter with blipper as standard

generous standard equipment, even heated seats for rider and pillion

good ergonomics

good wind and weather protection

long-distance capability.

Handguards for off-road use not very robust

flood of switches on the left handlebar

overall large and ponderous appearance

KTM 890 SMT 2024

The KTM 890 SMT is a bike that oscillates between two worlds - too sporty for touring riders, too heavy for real supermoto fans. But this niche is precisely where its appeal lies: if you are looking for an agile, touring bike with supermoto genes, the 890 SMT is a real fun machine that boldly defies the mainstream. Despite minor weaknesses in terms of comfort and image, it is an insider tip for individualists - and is currently particularly attractive thanks to discounts.

Unique concept: Supermoto meets touring

Agile handling: Surprisingly manoeuvrable for its weight

Powerful engine: Powerful 889 cubic centimetre two-cylinder engine

Sporty riding position: Front-wheel orientated, lots of riding pleasure

Solid comfort: Suitable for touring shorter distances

Unclear target group: Neither touring nor pure supermoto

Vibrations: Noticeable from approx. 80 km/h

Moderate wind protection: Windscreen hardly provides any protection
