Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Tiger 800 XC Special 2014

The Tiger 800 XC already draws attention to this in its name: the large and narrow tyres, the long suspension travel and the upright seating position certainly allow for off-road excursions. In addition, the 800 XC is extremely manoeuvrable, making it a lot of fun even in tight corners. The power output of 95 hp is easily sufficient for this, and the typical characteristics such as the muffled sound and the powerful mid-torque are also very noticeable. The brakes are pleasantly soft for gravel and off-road use, but also seem somewhat toothless on the road.
