Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Speed Twin 1200 2019
The Triumph Speed Twin 1200 looks like a magnificent but also powerful motorbike in the photos. But even when test riding it, it becomes slender and dainty. On the test ride, it goes even further. It is an accessible and easy-to-ride motorbike. In fact, it's small, compact and lively. A good choice if you want to ride 1200 cc and 97 hp and always thought that was way too much. In detail, the Triumph is lovingly and beautifully finished. A heart-warming motorbike.
Triumph Tiger Sport 2013
The Triumph Tiger Sport 1050 is an extremely versatile bike. The ergonomics are in the sweet spot between sporty and touring and the suspension also manages this balancing act very well. The star and number one source of joy is definitely the powerful three-cylinder engine, which in this first generation of the Tiger Sport without an electronic safety net definitely demands an experienced or cautious touch on the throttle. It performs very well in all disciplines. It is in touring mode that it loses the most due to the lack of all comfort features. If you want something like this, you have to reach for Tiger Sport models from 2016 onwards.
