About the Triumph Tiger Explorer
The Triumph Tiger Explorer was Triumph's first true heavyweight adventure: a 1,215 cc inline triple with shaft drive, launched in 2012 as a direct rival to the BMW R 1200 GS Adventure. The 137 hp triple delivers linear torque and the 20-litre tank offers easily 350 km of range. The chassis is a tubular steel frame with the engine as a stressed member; suspension comes from WP, with semi-active TES on the XCa/XRx trims. In 2018 the name changed to Tiger 1200, but the architecture stayed largely unchanged until the 2022 redesign.
The Tiger Explorer targets experienced GS riders looking for a triple-flavoured alternative with shaft drive and full electronic kit (cruise control, riding modes, ABS, traction control). At about 246 kg and 837 mm seat height it demands a tall, confident rider. Also competes with the KTM 1190/1290 Adventure. On the used market it offers strong value compared to an equivalent GS, but shaft and electronics maintenance need attention.

What to check before buying
- Inspect the shaft drive rubber coupling and centre bearing for play and oil leakage.
- Check whether ABS and electronic throttle body firmware updates have been completed.
- Assess the steering head bearings for play; off-road use wears them faster.
- Ask about service on the electric screen adjuster; motors fail after high mileage.
- Test every riding mode and the cruise control on a test ride; sensor faults are not uncommon.
