Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2023

Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2023

The Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is a typical premium touring enduro, with very comprehensive equipment and real long-distance qualities. With regard to the competition, it may lack a bit of a unique selling point and also has some minor shortcomings, but no other big enduro offers such a good price-performance ratio. Buy it, put it on and ride off is the motto. The GT Explorer doesn't need dozens of ticks in the accessories catalogue, everything you need is already there.

Silky, yet powerful engine

Semi-active chassis with wide adjustment range

Excellent brakes

Comfortable ergonomics

Extensive equipment with many comfort features from standard.

Quite limited lean angle clearance

High-frequency vibrations at cruising speed

Slightly sluggish turn-in behaviour with standard tyres
