Triumph Tiger Sport 800 2025

Triumph Tiger Sport 800 2025

The Triumph Tiger Sport 800 presents itself as a versatile sport touring motorcycle that offers a successful blend of sportiness and suitability for everyday use. Particularly noteworthy are the new 798 cubic centimetre three-cylinder engine with its linear power delivery and yet still plenty of character, as well as the well-tuned Showa suspension, which offers both comfort and stability. The features with quickshifter, cruise control, cornering ABS and traction control as standard also emphasise the bike's modern aspirations. The ergonomics are accessible to many riders thanks to the low seat height and narrow design, while the fuel consumption and range are impressive. However, the wind protection shows weaknesses, especially for taller riders. However, this hardly detracts from the overall impression, especially when the price of the Tiger Sport 800 is taken into account. No other new crossover bike offers this kind of value for money.

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE is still a wonderfully unreasonable and brutal fun machine. It reminds us why we love motorbikes. It provides great moments in the saddle that make you forget practical disadvantages. The Marzocchi suspension elements installed since 2024 work incredibly well and, in conjunction with the Brembo Stylema system, make the XE a factor not to be underestimated in the country road duel. Off-road, it is unrivalled in this class anyway. All in all, a fascinating motorbike that attracts a lot of attention.
