Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO 2023

Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO 2023

The Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Pro comes with a powerful in-line three-cylinder engine and plenty of features. The all-round carefree package on two wheels is easy to control, but clearly favours a more leisurely pace. If that doesn't bother you, you'll enjoy the smooth electronic suspension, good wind protection and plenty of comfort features. However, the newly developed Tiger 1200 is (still) a little out of round in some areas, as can be seen, for example, from the stronger load change reactions and high-frequency vibrations on motorway stages.

Linear, predictable power delivery

good wind protection

comfortable riding position

top brakes

High-frequency vibrations at certain engine speeds

rather sluggish handling

What could be better than getting even more power and torque in an already powerful naked bike! The predecessor, the R 1200 R, with its 125 hp and Newton metres of torque, could already be ridden very sportily, but the enlarged R 1250 R, now with 136 hp and a massive 143 Newton metres, pushes the boxer power to its current peak. The special thing about the R 1250 R, as with its predecessor, is that thanks to the extensive range of accessories it can also convince on tours. The new engine with ShiftCam valve control is not only more powerful but also more refined. The chassis and brakes are also convincing, and the seating position is pleasantly upright, allowing a wide range of riding styles, from sporty push-off to long-distance touring.
