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

Suzuki Burgman 400 2022

Suzuki Burgman 400 2022

The Suzuki Burgman 400 is a tried and tested maxi scooter that scores points above all for its reliability, large storage space and high level of comfort. It is ideal for daily use and longer journeys, but reaches its limits when it comes to modern technical features. For fans of classic scooters with a solid character, the Burgman remains a good choice, even if it is slightly more expensive than the competition.

Large storage capacity

High ride comfort and good weather protection

Reliable and proven technology

Stable driving style even in difficult

road conditions

Drive train and display appear outdated

Noticeable "rubber band effect" when starting off

No modern features such as Smartkey or adjustable windscreen
