Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Niken GT 2021

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro 2021

The Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro is a very good touring bike, as long as you are not in a hurry. It has plenty of equipment, every conceivable electronic feature, extremely pleasant ergonomics and a well-balanced, easy-care three-cylinder engine. At the same time, it is oriented towards comfort across the board. Others are better at racing around corners, but the British lady prefers to cruise in a relaxed manner. Why overuse the soft chassis when you can instead enjoy the top wind protection and inhale the landscape around you.

Accessible, superior engine

Very comfortable ergonomics

Extensive electronics package

Good wind protection

Also very comfortable for pillion riders (seat heating!)

Top quickshifter

Chassis too soft for sporty drivers

Slight engine vibrations noticeable on the motorway
