Triumph Tiger 800 XC 2017
The new edition of the Tiger 800 XC can be considered quite successful. Even the "conventional" version can do much more than its predecessor thanks to the ride-by-wire system and standard traction control and ABS (both can be switched off). However, if you want to venture off-road more often, which is definitely what the designers had in mind thanks to the large wheels and spoke rims, you should choose the Tiger 800 XCx, which costs just under 1000 euros more. Thanks to the freely selectable riding modes, the x-version can be optimally tuned to the respective terrain. In addition, there is an engine guard, self-resetting turn signals, cruise control, main stand, underride protection, an additional 12V socket and hand protectors - which probably more than justifies the extra charge.
Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2024
With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, Suzuki now has the right large V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will be staying almost exclusively on the road will find the standard model a reliable travelling companion or even a buddy for every day, while those who are less restricted in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find a good choice in the DE. However, the main selling point remains the engine, which with its 107 Horsepower and, above all, its rich torque, leaves little to be desired.
