Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Tiger 800 XCx 2015

Triumph Tiger 800 XCx 2015

The Tiger 800 XCx appears to be just the right size as a universal talent. The engine is definitely the cream of the crop. It is lively, rev-happy, powerful and sounds a little daring. Nevertheless, it is always comfortable and easy to ride. The rest of the bike seems to be on a par.

great engine that is practical in everyday life but also a lot of fun

easy to drive yet never boring

Individual details seem a touch too cheap

Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2017

Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2017

Still sensational. It scores with the familiar Honda virtues, but never gets stale. A motorbike that goes with you through thick and thin and doesn't tire even on extra-long tours. Very robust off-road, also copes with really tough passages without any problems. Still the benchmark for touring enduros in 2017.

Comfortable but not boring

Pleasant and perfectly dimensioned engine

Seat height a tad lower than on the KTM- from 175cm height it could work

Suspension elements do everything off-road, but are too comfortably tuned at high speeds

traction control is annoying off-road - always has to be readjusted after every short break.
