- Triumph's all-new Tiger 1200 is aiming straight for BMW's all-conquering R 1250 GS in the battle of the big adventure bikes.
Insidebikes were among the first journalists to sample the latest British challenger, and Carl Stevens rode the more street orientated GT Pro and GT Explorer versions in our world first review.

First proper review and I'm so happy to hear that it's as impressive as it looks - preorder is in and counting the days for it to arrive
Great! Happy travels! Please grace us with an owner's review when you get some mileage on it. Want badly to have it as well, but i never get a bike in its first year of appearance.
@@nickpapas6496 We'll have done a long Scotland tour on it by July, I'd be happy to give thoughts
@@CCharlsburg Thanks man! I am looking forward to it!
WOW! The bike looks so much better than what I've seen in magazines etc. Looks like Triumph has hit this one out of the park! What a great looking bike! Looks like it's going to give the GS a run for it's money.
Wow. That exhaust note sounds great. First review I’ve seen and very encouraging. Looking forward to the Rally Pro review 😎
great video . happy to have the first opinions and tests of this tiger 1200. I ordered mine which should arrive at the beginning of April 2022
Where did you get yours from?
@@ScragNath I live in France. deliveries of the first motorcycles are scheduled for early April 2022
Great video 👍🏻, waiting for triumph 1200 rally pro review 😍
Im a Triumph funboy! I have a xrt 1200 from 2019... Heated seats, grips, electric screen, etc... Nothing else i could wich in a bike! I like this new one but I wouldnt change mine xrt for this! Mine looks a real fat 1200 😂 this looks more a 900 with shaft drive... And... Only pros do off road, serious off road with these beast even with less 25kg...
Never the less it's a beautiful bike and Im sure much better than the competition! All the best to Triumph 😎
Great video, thank you, best regards from Barcelona!
Great review!!! I have a Speed Triple but I now want to try this after your review. Just wondering how it compares to new Ducati V4 Multistrada.
Great video and very well presented.Brilliant.
Good review i drive the 2014 1200 explorer for over 60000 km's.
And i love this bike and drove it thru many county's in europe.
But this one is gone be my new one .
I hope next year.
Best review I’ve watched thank you so much. Just bought one of these today. 👍😎
Какво е мнението ти за този мотор след като вече си собственик?
As the road oriented models, the Electric screen and backlit handlebar switches for night riding will be missed, sure wished they could have been on the premium option list. Nice review.
It has backlit switches. I know because I own the GT Explorer. My last 2020 XCX had the Electric screen and I like the manual one better. Easy to adjust and quick.
Excellent review!
Made my mind up for me 😁
Nothing here is a review, everything is a commercial. A review would have real comments about the bike and vs competition. There are good reviews out there actually reviewing the bike and not just praising it from start to end.
So glad to see a review by someone under 6 feet tall.
I put a deposit on one today. Black GT Explorer. Should be here (California) in 2 weeks! My first new bike in 14 years.
Sounds great but I'm surprised to hear it has a snatchy throttle, the previous Tiger 800 and 1200 had gorgeous throttle response. I guess a test ride is in order.
GT Explorer is nice but I loved the look of the previous Tiger 1200 models.
Hello, I want to ask about how does it feel off the road? I mean, I don't want to go to a really difficult terrain, but a dusty way or something like that? Because I pre-order the gt explorer but I don't know if change my order for the Rally explorer?
Any note on the engine “character”?
Will these bikes be available to buy in 2022? I can't find anywhere to part with my cash right now.
Very similar to the BMW GS GOOD REVIEW
Comfortable. That does it ! Sin ce I'm still doing stints of 400/500 km. Though I wonder if there's enough to justify the difference withy the 900…
I am a bit intrigued. What is the fuel range or tank capacity of the standard? Maybe I missed this, a 30 litre tank is great but let's be honest 18k on a bike is a lot and although it has a lot of good features, I would be interested to know capacity of the lower more affordable spec version. The gs also is off road and on road capable for the same sort of money, so how does the triumph combat this? Great review. How would you say the triumph does in relation to the gs overall?
the t pro is a 20 litre tank. the explorer is 30 litre
Former tiger owner here. Things I hated: wind noise, incredible top-heaviness/high CoG. Have either of those things changed? I dropped my tiger with pillion twice on badly cambered roads at a stop, both at junctions, which is why it went.
Weight is still high up apparently
@@awesomeagnihotrisvlog that's a shame, but I guess with the way triple engine in the Triumph is there is no way counter it other than roll the heads further forward more but they've probably rolled the engine forwards as much as they can... I wonder if the bigger rear wheel is designed to help with CoG feel
Speaking as a short legged (29" inseam) current 1200XRT owner and someone who has sat on and manually maneuvered the new GT Pro, there's a whole world of difference. The new one is more akin to the 900 than the old 1200. I could rock the gt between my knees - I would dream of even trying that on the XRT. I test rode the new 900 and it was a revelation and was all set to pull the trigger on one but they were unavailable until late last year. So I thought I'd wait for the 1200. Couldn't believe how light it felt and can't wait for a test ride!
The GT Pro looks like my next bike
Rode it yesterday [GT Pro]. The GS is a barge in comparison.
What’s happened to the heated seats on the GT Pro 🤔😢
Standard on the Explorer now. Accessory for the Pro.
Ghaaxvaaakktt! I bought a bike then you show me this bike and I want this bike.....
First road review 👍.Been waiting on a review. I have the 900 gt pro. Caught in 2 minds over the new tiger or KTM 1290 Adv s. Leaning towards KTM tbh. Good video
Can’t understand the fawning over GS. Triumph have model that’s round about 14 years old and are criticised for being behind the times. Hell’s delight the GS engine was developed just after the dinosaurs were wiped out. Won’t knock the GS as I’ve never ridden one but, in my opinion id never be seen dead on one, it hit ever ugly branch on its fall out of the ugly tree…
so is the throttle snatchy ?
Too bad you didn't show yourself seated on it to get an idea how tall the bike is
18K !!
Trying to count how many times you say Really Really in 11 min 😂
Can't believe that was only 11 mins!
wow its is a Bike!
✌✌✌✌
Very hard to take a review serious that uses 11 min on how amazing everything is and the only critics is a manual screen versus an electric. No comparison towards the rest of the market (KTM 1290, BMW 1250 etc).
Looks Indeed more like a commercial spot
@@lagnop3 Agree, not a review but a commercial.
@@P33T_ aren't most 'reviews that these days - hard to find a honest review - only a few guys on TH-cam doing it..........
Or maybe it’s just good? Watching folks complain about the location of the ignition, the seat height being 2mm too high, or the test ride suspension feeling to “unresponsive” (when they didn’t even trying a different riding mode) is also stupid.
It is a commerical. Unless they bought the bike themselves, it’s just a big fat thank you for inviting them to the demo ride experience.
The fact is, with Triumph, they make a great bike. It may not suit everyone, and has trade offs, but they are in the business of making great bikes or they go out of business. How negative is a review actually going to be?
Clues in the title full review & road test, it's his own personal review of the bike, not sure why he has to compare it to other bikes, personally found the review informative and useful.
Nice bike.. but not for me, not with those vibes through it.
Every bike has a blind spot monitor. It's called turning your head. Stuff like that stupid radar shouldn't exist on bikes.
Can't see the problem to be honest, if it stops just one motorcyclist getting seriously injured or killed then that's a good thing, are you anti self cancelling indicators then because as you well know some riders forget to turn them off, yes common sense should prevail but any form of safety in my book is a good thing.
Bad noise!!!! Triumph they don't make it this year with this change in motor. Always I hear from far triumph bikes now is so shit the sound of motor!!! 😞😖😣
