  • In the middleweight adventure bike segment, Triumph has 2 magnificent offerings in the Tiger 900 Rally Pro vs GT Pro. Triumph have a few more variations of the Tiger 900, however these 2 are on top of the pile in my opinion.
    I tested and rode them back to back to get a feel of which is the better. However, it is a tie and purely comes down to what ration you spend on off-roads and which suits your riding stile better. For example the Gt will change direction quicker and has that stunning rear fully automatic suspension for load and passengers where the Rally definetely has the better off-road capabilities, clearance and wheels.
    Both bikes in my opinion are a perfect balance between world class adventure bikes vs high spech and tech as well as total value for money!

    Hi great video but please wear gloves no matter how hot . As a ex police officer ive seen several major hand injuries with no gloves. and theres no surgery that can save it.

    Really like to know the Off Road performance of each of these. A lot of reviews, including this one, note the Rally Pro is the “more” off road type but never compare and comment on exactly that. Seen many reviews of the Off Road performance of the Rally by itself by not against the GT. Be good to know what the GT Pro can do off road to understand its limits and see when and why the step to the Rally would be required for some. Thought that would be fundamental to the point of the two.

    Hi mate …love review…a quick question….the performance of the Rally vs GT in the corners is too far apart ?? (asking cause I love the spokes wheel of the Rally but would prefer the handling of GT as iam a street rider) thanks and safe miles 🙌🙌

    I think the secret to Noraly’s success with people is she assumes the best and she prejudges nobody. A lot of people are guarded and even afraid of strangers, particularly if they are different in appearance. I have been fortunate to have been able to travel a bit and have found at the base level people are pretty much the same. Treat someone as you would want to be treated and things will work out. Walt Whitman said to be less judgmental and have more curiosity. Try to understand where people are coming from. Noraly lives that mantra. Much love to you Noraly…the world needs more people like you.

    Enjoyed the reviews and the way you rode As for the bikes, if someone would give it to me either ones free of charge, I'd sell it and get either a Japanese bike or a Beemer, never been a fun of 3 cylinders, with that annoying whistling noise that the engine makes. A bit too fancy with all this electronics. Service and maintenance mustn't come cheap either. Imagine if you drop it plus service and maintenance, it's a matter of taste I suppose and if you can afford it

    Aside from CC’s, what are you losing buying the 900 over the 1200? My wife and I are wanting Touring bikes and while I enjoyed the 1200 test ride, and my wife likes The 900 since she’s just not tall enough to feel comfortable on the 1200. I must have wind protection; comfort for long rides, and capacity to carry both a passenger and bags without being under powered.
    Thoughts?

    • @route21garage

      Hi Mike, the 900 is absolutely Brilliant and can keep up in every way with the bigger 1200. The only time you might feel you made the wrong purchase would be 2 up with full panniers touring. That is when you might just wish you had a few more horses. If your wife rides herself and you on yours, then that 900 can pedal proper aswell 💪👍🏻

I love the feel and size of the 1200, and I do think we may go two up once in a while with our youngest daughter, but she’s almost 20 and at that point where she’s spreading her wings. I love the weight and feel of the 1200…and how it handled the wind….but that sticker price is tough. Especially since I always buy bikes in 2’s since my wife is absolutely no passenger…my best girl loves to ride. :-) guess I need to think hard about the 900.
