Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha XT 1200 Z Super Ténéré World Crosser 2015

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Triumph Tiger Explorer 2015

The three-cylinder lacks a little pressure from the rev range, but it revs and shrieks out of the top like a three-headed hellhound. The XC version in particular is a real man's bike with a lot of power and mass.

Powerful and lively engine

comfortable chassis

high weight
