Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro 2021

The Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro is a very good touring bike, as long as you are not in a hurry. It has plenty of equipment, every conceivable electronic feature, extremely pleasant ergonomics and a well-balanced, easy-care three-cylinder engine. At the same time, it is oriented towards comfort across the board. Others are better at racing around corners, but the British lady prefers to cruise in a relaxed manner. Why overuse the soft chassis when you can instead enjoy the top wind protection and inhale the landscape around you.

Accessible, superior engine

Very comfortable ergonomics

Extensive electronics package

Good wind protection

Also very comfortable for pillion riders (seat heating!)

Top quickshifter

Chassis too soft for sporty drivers

Slight engine vibrations noticeable on the motorway

BMW F 900 XR 2020

The new BMW F 900 XR proves that it now needs no more than the middle class. With 105 hp, you are never underpowered in any situation and the two-cylinder offers enough elasticity to be both relaxed and very sporty on the road. Its solid quality and proven high-volume technology of the F 850 series make it a perfect companion if you want to be sporty on the road with a high level of comfort. As a basis, the equipment is sufficient, but the BMW accessories programme gives enough options to put together your dream motorbike (recommendation: Gearshift Assistant Pro!).

Resilient and powerful engine

Variable ergonomics

Sufficient wind protection

Great Brembo brakes

Stylish looks

Wide range of accessories

Behavioural sound
