Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO 2022

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

If you're a bit indecisive when buying a motorbike, and would prefer to have an egg-laying pillow, the 1200 is the best choice. In addition, the 1200 is the only true GS, namely the GS with a boxer engine and cardan drive.
