Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2026

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2026

The Yamaha MT-09 SP is a bike for connoisseurs - for riders who understand that perfection does not always lie in flawless smoothness, but sometimes in deliberate imperfection. It offers a unique blend of Japanese reliability, Swedish suspension expertise and Italian brakes passion, packed into a naked bike that cuts a fine figure both on country roads and in city traffic. If you are prepared to embrace the character of this three-cylinder and invest the extra price for the SP features, you will get a bike that is more than the sum of its parts - a vehicle with soul.

Characterful three-cylinder engine

High-quality Öhlins suspension

Excellent Brembo brake system

Comfortable seating position for long distances

Good workmanship and material quality

Versatile electronic equipment

Precise quickshifter

Lower peak power in segment comparison

limited high-speed stability

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2024

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2024

It is impressive how well the bike manages the balancing act between on-road and off-road, doing exactly what an adventure bike should be able to do or what you want to do with an adventure bike. And this with a level of maturity that is downright astonishing for a new model and shows that Triumph has done its homework and has further developed the already underestimated Tiger 800 in a sensible way. Even if some die-hard Tiger fans may miss the now less pronounced, typical whistling of the three-cylinder engine. I can only answer the question of whether the Tiger 900 Rally Pro is ready for the journey with a "when are we going to start again?"!

Three-cylinder engine full of character

significantly improved off-road capability

comfortable suspension elements

quickshifter with blipper as standard

lavish standard equipment, even heated seats for rider and pillion

good ergonomics

good wind and weather protection

long-distance capability

Handguards not very robust for off-road use

flood of switches on the left handlebar
