Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro 2022

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?
