Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2020

It's impressive how well the bike manages the balancing act between on- and off-road, doing exactly what a touring enduro should be able to do, or what you still want to do with a touring enduro. And it does so with a degree of maturity that is astonishing for a new model and shows that Triumph has done its homework and has sensibly further developed the already underrated Tiger 800. Even if some die-hard Tiger fans may miss the now less pronounced, typical whistle of the three-cylinder. The question of whether the Tiger 900 Rally Pro is ready for the road can only be answered with a "when do you want to go again?

Three-cylinder engine full of character

significantly improved off-road capability

comfortable suspension elements

quickshifter with blipper as standard

generous standard equipment, even heated seats for rider and passenger

good ergonomics

good wind and weather protection

long-distance capability.

Handguards not very robust for off-road use

flood of switches on left handlebars

BMW F 800 GS 2009

Fully equipped with special equipment from Touratech, the BMW looked very imposing and gave the impression of a real, masculine adventurer's motorbike. Headlight grille, engine guard, grippy, wider footrests, and much more hopefully deceived many eyewitnesses about the same-sex partnership on the breathable comfort seat.

Fully equipped with optional extras

imposing impression

good workmanship

pleasant chassis.
