Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2022
With the slimmer Tiger 1200, Triumph has now joined the ranks of the very best in the top enduro touring class. The Rally models also convince in practice with real off-road competence, the GT models with exemplary agility, both with power and sovereignty in every situation thanks to the three-cylinder engine full of character. It won't knock the BMW R1250 GS off its throne as the best-selling motorbike, but it certainly doesn't have to hide from it or other contenders. Our comparative tests will reveal whether it has what it takes to be the best "big adventure bike" of 2022. Especially since the cat of prey manages the balancing act between long-distance and off-road capability, which a touring enduro always has to master, really well, more in one direction or the other depending on the model choice.
SWM SM 125 R 2018
Fans of 125cc supermotos who place a lot of value on great looks are in the right place with the SWM SM 125 R. The former Husqvarnas shine with pretty details like their red frame and definitely stand out from the crowd at the car park. You have to make concessions when it comes to responsiveness, which makes for high load change reactions in the apex of the bend. On the other hand, the SWM has the best brakes in the A1 supermoto segment, even if the CBS braking system prevents drifts on corner entry.
