I reviewed this bike over the weekend, and it was amazingly good. I got home and pulled up the base map in TuneECU, and you would not believe how restricted it is from the factory. The tune and ignition tables are good, but the ride by wire stuff is crazy restricted. In sport mode, you can twist the throttle all you want. It will never deliver more than 64% throttle opening, and it only gets to that paltry amount, near redline... 15 minutes for an ECU flash to unlock Sport mode and that bike will be so much more powerful.

Great, informative review as usual. It’s easy for short people to ride bikes like this, riding isn’t the problem. Even getting on and off is easy, just use the pegs. No, the problem comes when stopping and setting off, especially when there’s a slope or if there’s loose gravel. That’s when the difficulty starts and dropping the bike, sooner or later, will happen.

As the only serious shaft drive alternative in this category (and no, I'm not including the big Yam) and if the shaft design doesn't require the maintenance of that of the GS, I think Triumph are onto a winner. Am I right in saying the GS doesn't offer a 21" front wheel option? Really interesting camera placements; would be nice to ditch the wide angle setting though.

Big heavy bike (including clutch). Vibes are noticeable but the marmite engine (t-plane crank) is the main problem depending on preferences. Performance and road holding are excellent, comfort is good, electronic extras are great and the bike has serious road presence. There is a lot to like. Less so if if you are used to riding the more traditional smooth throughout the range triumph triples. For me the t-plane sounds like a tractor and as this is supposed to be a bike that doesn't seem right.

Thanks for the review, Chops. Seems like a cracking bike and very much fit for purpose save, as you mentioned, tft limitations etc. Without further research (which would be wise) I’d put this Tiger almost on par with the 1200GS. Purchasing decision would probably come down to perceived quality of finish, service costs and local dealer reputation. As regards it’s performance against the Multistrada, I’d wager it wouldn’t bother too many potential customers.

So that is the reason I bought the shaft drive Triumph 1200 Tiger Rally Explorer, it’s different to the main stream, in my opinion it has the edge over the GS older mans bike, faster, lighter, more refined but most of all, its British!

here's an alternative view, I've had a 900 rally pro a year, rode it all over the place including 2 rallies, so quick word onthat, seat is 3 hours comfortable the foams not quite right, twitchy front end two up and that's it no other complaints other than you have to fit better protection its a brilliant bike. I've just test rode the 1200gt, unfortunately not the rally, the engines smoother, its faster though not massively and that's the only two advantages over the 900, the handling is the same. Bits I really didn't like, the new dash is awful massive step backwards and I just don't like keyless. Shaft drive?? I can clean, lube and adjust a chain, no biggie... Just my opinion everyone has one and everyone's is valid. Test ride before buy. I'm sticking with the 900.

Hi Chops I have ridden this bike and compared it to my Pan America it no better than my Pan America Special and I found the switchgear fussy and not as easy to use, also you don’t get the Say Nav map on the screen like Pan America and Ducati. And no ARH suspension which is fabulous. Why do you all ignore the Pan America in group tests and not seen you test one?

I think Triumph has a connectivity option so that you can have turn by turn navigation but yes, it's not as good as an integrated satnav.

Great effort from triumph. Lovely peachy engine. I agree the dash and operation are pretty distracting and not safe. I wonder if BMW have patented that toggle wheel On left bar? That’s perfection and wheel worshipers Might just buy the GS solely for that😂 as always enjoy your view point. 👍

I’ve been looking at this and the S1000XR. For some touring and some very spirited riding what would be your preference ? I’m not a fan of the boxer engine so not really considering a GS 🤫😂

The ultimate spirited riding adventure bike is the new multistrada v4. However the Tiger does a pretty decent job! XR is probably better though as the 17inch wheel makes a big difference but the power delivery is a little bland and some buzzing from the engine. Its a tough shout! Oh also consider the Superduke GT it's probably the ultimate hoon touring bike

I had a Gen 3 and it was amazing, but traded it in for a KTM 1290 SDR. That was just nicked so considering getting the new Gen 4, so tempting! Really looking forward to your comparison vid.

Hola, estupendo video!. En mi caso, no soy un piloto experto y solo conduzco en carretera de asfalto. No hago grandes viajes, solo alguna salida pequeña. Para el día a día tengo una moto pequeña de tipo cafe-racer. Acabo de perder una Multistrada V4S en un accidente, y me planteo comprar, o bien otra V4S de segunda mano, o bien una Triumph 1200 GT PRO. El precio bien equipadas se acerca mucho entra la Tiger nueva con una V4S de segunda mano, ya que la Ducati es bastante más cara. Mido 170 cm y utilizo en cualquiera de estas motos la opción de asiento más bajo. Valoro mucho la maniobrabilidad, facilidad de manejo y agilidad en la moto, también su seguridad. Tengo la impresión de que la Tiger es más manejable que la V4S, y que a pesar de pesar prácticamente lo mismo, la Tiger parece más ágil. La potencia no me preocupa porque ambas tienen de sobra. La protección aerodinámica sé que es mejor en la Ducati que en la Triumph. El sonido, creo que es mejor en la Tiger, ya que en mi anterior V4S la verdad que el sonido no me gustaba nada, suena a lata, supongo que por el euro5. Creo que la transmisión por cardan en la Tiger suena mejor y es más práctica y más suave que la transmisión por cadena de la Ducati. Desde tu opinión o consejo, y sabiendo mi altura, grado de experiencia y uso de la moto, ¿me recomendarías una Multistrada V4S completa de equipamiento de SEGUNDA MANO (unos 26000-27000 €), o una Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO NUEVA equipada con topcase, maletas y protecciones (25000 €)?. Gracias

Hi Lamb chops....nice review...hope you get to read this....I've just bought the rally explorer..I love it..fantastic bike...I've owned many bikes..including 5 gs's...BUT....there is a fly in the ointment...the navigation interface is a joke.!! The my triumph app is worse than useless...For a nearly £20k motorcycle,it's not good enough...Why did triumph not save the money spent on that app and install android auto and apple car play instead.....sorry for the rant,but I need to get it out there.....triumph need to know they messed up the interface.....all the best...keep up the good work..!!

Late to the party as usual... I traded in my '19 Tiger 1200 for the Steve McQueen Scrambler 1200, knowing that the new version of the Tiger would be coming out. The McQueen will be with me for ever...a new Tiger soon to follow...If they can get here (Canada) in some semblance of time lol My wife will appreciate the comfort of the big ADV over the Scrambler for sure...it's not really designed as a day tripper 2 up :D Cheers from the colonies

It looks very like a GS from the front with the beak/screen. It has shaft drive non? I had an R100GS. I wouldn't like to take it off road in slushy muddy stuff. Overkill, still prefer a V85tt at 5'8 myself. Was Arundel castle attacked in the Civil war - Rounheads v Royalist?
