Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2022

Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2022

With the slimmer Tiger 1200, Triumph has now joined the ranks of the very best in the top enduro touring class. The Rally models also convince in practice with real off-road competence, the GT models with exemplary agility, both with power and sovereignty in every situation thanks to the three-cylinder engine full of character. It won't knock the BMW R1250 GS off its throne as the best-selling motorbike, but it certainly doesn't have to hide from it or other contenders. Our comparative tests will reveal whether it has what it takes to be the best "big adventure bike" of 2022. Especially since the cat of prey manages the balancing act between long-distance and off-road capability, which a touring enduro always has to master, really well, more in one direction or the other depending on the model choice.

Powerful engine

High-quality electronics package

Semi-active chassis regulates finely

Extensive standard equipment

Long-distance comfort

Excellent wind and weather protection

Agility

Better model spread between on- and off-road than the predecessor model.

Minor load change reactions on Explorer models

Blind Spot Assist not available on Pro models

High pillion seat restricts freedom of movement for sporty off-roading

Moto Guzzi V7 Stone 2022

Moto Guzzi V7 Stone 2022

The Italians know exactly how to polish an icon - the V7 Stone also has the characteristic, longitudinally installed V2 engine with the typical sloping cylinders. And with this model in particular, this should appeal not only to true Guzzi fans, but also to all those who are looking for a balanced, uncomplicated motorbike. Although the engine has its typical vibrations, it behaves well, the chassis is more comfortable than sporty, and the seating position is also well suited to the comfortable character. The single-disc brakes at the front even grip surprisingly well and the overall look goes straight to the heart. Only the LCD instruments seem out of place and modern.

modern engine with classic feel

low-maintenance cardan drive

comfortable seating position

good single-disc brake at the front

superb design

LCD fittings not optimally readable, strongly delayed gear display
