Triumph’s all-new Tiger 1200s copped a thrashing through challenging terrain in South Australia.
The Rally Pro had the 20-litre tank and no radar or heated seats, but we didn’t feel the lack.
Australia has been waiting for the all-new Tiger 1200s for quite a while – not as long as everyone waited for the Ténéré 700, obviously. That was like waiting for a NSW government review into appointing a former party leader to a cushy, big-money job – but long enough. Adventure Rider Magazine was able to chat to Triumph’s Chief Engineer, Stuart Wood, in issue #51 to try and get some of the info everyone was busting to know, and we’d sat in on a couple of those Zoomy-meeting things where various people teased us with bits and pieces about the new bikes.
