Very nice test. And awesome country. Best regards from Poland 🇵🇱

Since my last post reply to you 8 months ago, I've now taken my Explorer on the Finnish/Russian border TET for three days. The track were still wet and a little bit snowy, but the bike was flawless, and loaded with soft luggage for 4 days travel camping along the way.
I got up to 125kmh on the long gravel straights and the bike was rock steady.
I'm very impressed with the Tiger overall both on and off road.
My next trip is 6 days across northern Norway to Nordkapp.
Thanks for all of your great videos.

Great report indeed. Have just run in my 2026 Tiger Rally Pro Desert Edition and waiting to clear the first service so I can get out there. Can't wait.  So far the bike reminds me of my previous SuperTenere,  but much more capable obviously.

Great ride, great blend of roads and tracks and a great bike 👍

Excellent real world review. Loved the showcasing the useful features (navigation on the display) while riding.

You picked the right, realistic off-road ride to show its capabilities. Impressively stable.

Triumph has built a winner. High on my list for next ADV. Currently on a '16 1290 SA....

Greetings from Germany. Very nice movie und so interesting country. I love it. And the bike! I have the same, as explorer and it´s built for my ash!  Realy! It´s a fantastic allrounder this bike. Was nice watching you and I wish you always nice moves. Stay healthy and enjoy the rides!

great video did the NC500 2 up on my tiger 1200 and amazing bikes that route looks so good

Age 66 , love my 2023 triumph tiger rally pro 1200  fire breathing gas drinking beast.. brraapppp

One of the best wineries in the country.

Loving your review buddy, I’ve got this bike as well as being lucky enough to have some nice others, this is probably my favourite one, just does everything. 👍

I went to the Grampians last weekend and went up that track you went down, Rosea track I loved it but I was on a smaller bike lol great tracks there I’m from down the great ocean road area and I’m spoilt here 👍🏻

Coffee and croissant!!!!! F.F.S. Man bacon and egg sarnie and a strong builders tea!!!!

I know if you are in the UK and unlikely to do much if any off road the suggestion is to take the GT Pro but this bike looks much better in my opinion and is plush. You’d have to ride like a loon as if you were on a different bike I reckon before you notice the subtle benefits of the different front wheel

I am struggling better tiger 1200 rally desert edition and Ktm 1290 adventure R.
Understand tiger is plush and super comfortable but a bit afraid about many reviews about very soft suspension.

On the other hand, now in greece I can buy it new for 19000 EUR. It’s even cheaper than new Desert X.

Also there is tiger 900 rally pro desert edition for 15900 EUR. Understand it’s lighter, conventional suspension but should be less comfort on a high way…

Ktm 1290 R has nice suspension for off road but price is 22k EUR…

Hard to choose )

I picked up my new to me, 2023 Rally Pro Explorer last week, rode for 4.5 hrs home without a problem. No stops for the duration of the ride, as I wanted to see just how far I could ride before I had to stop (I live in Finland, so I can ride for many hours without a problem). Well I arrived home before that happened!! The seat is super comfortable, and I'm 5'8" and could touch the floor with confidence with the bike lowered by the button when needed.
I highly recommend the bike to anyone who is contemplating getting one.
Also Wayne, where do you rate the Triumph after the Ducati (which is your pick of the big 30litre tank adventure bikes) and the GSA?
Cheers mate for another great video.

You don't mention that its not easy to clean the air filter?

I’m sorry but what are people doing to only get 250-300km per tank? I had the 2016 and 2019 versions of the tiger 1200 and routinely got over 650km on a 20L tank, like am I just an absolute grandpa on the throttle or is everyone else riding like they think it’s the dakar rally?

How would you rate the Tiger compared to the Multistrada v4 Rally?

That whole big and heavy thing is nonsense. They are so much fun.   I've been through winding roads having a great time with my camping gear on the back!

Ocean to desert, good choice and very nice indeed. Any chance you could share route info as gpx or google maps route? (there is zero chance of me doing this in 1 day but maybe multi-day trip)
