Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Tiger Sport 2014
In direct comparison with its little sister, the Tiger 800 XC, the Tiger Sport 1050 can only score in one area: The brakes are extremely well-balanced and apply properly when you need them. In most other disciplines, however, it cannot prevail. Especially in handling, the big 1050 is much more stubborn than its little sister. Since it can't really be used off-road, its radius of action is much narrower than that of the Tiger 800 XC. However, if you are looking for a universal partner for the road, which, in addition to a comfortable riding position, should also offer a certain amount of sport, the Tiger Sport 1050 is certainly not the wrong choice.
Aprilia Caponord 1200 Rally 2016
The Aprilia Caponord 1200 Rally is unmistakably the top model in the Capo range: a classy set of panniers, crash bars, engine guard, additional LED headlights and an extravagant set of spoke rims are incredibly pleasing to the eye. In terms of performance, the Rally with traction control, ABS and cruise control is not far removed from its "normal" Travel Pack sister. And the engine, with its 125 hp, is and remains a powerful companion that impresses above all with its throaty V2 sound and good power. You have to like the comfortable chassis - while fans of the hardcore league will turn up their noses, everyone else will enjoy the ingenious active chassis that smoothes out even the roughest knocks. The only thing standing in the way of off-road use is the road tyres; the front 19-inch wheel would certainly be happy to take on the odd off-road excursion with different tyres.
