The engine of this motorcycle has been updated and here is why the GT makes a compelling argument as a tourer

Tiger Touring

For most motorcycles, updates are usually limited to aesthetics or, in some cases, ergonomics and electronics. Triumph have gone one step further by actually extracting more power from an engine we have appreciated since its launch in 2020. Here is what stood out for us after riding the latest Triumph Tiger 900 GT.

In some markets, those who want a Tiger for the road can choose between the GT and the GT Pro but in India, we get only the GT. What are we missing out on? Not much because most of the kit that is offered as standard in the Pro is available as an option in the GT. Electronic adjustability for preload at the rear and the customizable Rider mode are possibly the only things one may miss. This particular motorcycle we tested had some optional kit, including a quick-shifter and sump-guard. Some may opt for the centre-stand, too, for ease of maintenance.
