Motorcycle specifications Triumph 1200 TIGER EXPLORER XC 2014 The desire to cross the hills
presentation of the 1200 TIGER EXPLORER XC 2014
a serious competitor to the BMW 1200 GS, the Triumph Explorer is now available in an XC version. Like its smaller 800 siblings, which are available in two sizes, Hinckley's big trail bike intends to expand its range of action. So, what does this episode augur? Quite simply, a more adventurous version.
the most striking change is the adoption of spoked wheels. The 19" and 17" sizes have been retained, in order to enhance the 1200 Explorer's specific comfort and efficiency. On the other hand, it will be able to allow itself excursions in rougher terrain than its standard use. Suspension travel remains identical to that of the standard Explorer.
A number of standard accessories enhance the comfort and ruggedness of the Explorer: a set of hand guards, additional fog lights, an aluminum engine cowling and 22 mm-diameter tubular steel side guards. A further 50 or so accessories can be added from the catalog.
in this Cross Country version, the 1200 Tiger Explorer raises its game. With its big 3-cylinder, cardan shaft, on-board electronics (traction control, disconnectable ABS, cruise control) and dynamic capabilities, the British GT trail bike had already made a strong impression. This XC will appeal to more seasoned enthusiasts, with a barely concealed desire to compete with the R 1200 GS Adventure.
