Photos of the new 2022 Tiger 1200 GT Explorer climbed on the bike again to verify it feels as light as I thought, and yes it is easier to bring upright than my Tiger 900, of course the tank is empty. Also it is a bit taller, like having the seat at the highest setting and with rear preload for passenger & luggage
The first tests and lots of pictures for TIGER 1200 EXPLORER and TIGER 1200 RALLY PRO are available: Links for TIGER 1200 Explorer: Test: https://www.1000ps.at/testbericht-3...it-der-passende-tiger-triumph-tiger-1200-test Photos: https://www.1000ps.at/motorrad-bilder-detail-triumph-tiger-1200-test-2022-21020 Links for TIGER 1200 RALLY PRO: Test: https://www.1000ps.at/testbericht-3009075-erster-offroad-test-der-neuen-triumph-tiger-1200-rally-pro Photos: https://www.1000ps.at/motorrad-bilder-detail-triumph-tiger-1200-rally-pro-erster-offroad-test-21015
I like it. Some very positive reviews coming in now. MCN gave a 5 out of 5 review rating. I've got a demo ride booked for 16th April.
I had a two hour test ride yesterday, greatly underwhelmed. Comfortable : defo, Nimble : defo. Weight loss : impressive (bike not me). Gearbox : slick. Performance even in sports mode underwhelming even compared to my 1200XCA and 2013 Tiger 1050 Sports. Noise from exhaust...what noise ? Suspension : non sports mode ...wallowing, sports mode ....good.
