If you’re in the market for a new adventure bike at the moment and have a rough budget of around £13k, it’s pretty likely that both the Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin and the Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro have caught your eye.
They’re two cracking adventure bikes, and we’ve been lucky enough to spend a year with both in the ABR long term garage. In that time we’ve got to know them well, as we’ve ridden each throughout the UK both on and off-road.
That’s why we decided to get together with Youtube motorcycle reviewer MotoBob in the grounds of the magnificent Ragley Hall Estate to answer one simple question. If you’re going to buy one of the two tomorrow with your own hard earned cash, which would we suggest and why?
From the engine, comfort and handling through to features, value, and sheer looks, we look back on the years we’ve spent riding both bikes to give you our verdict, and help guide that big decision. Enjoy.
Want to ride both of these in one place? Read on…
If you want to ride both of these yourself, check out the 2022 ABR Festival. All of the major adventure and touring bike manufacturers will be there with fleets of test bikes to be ridden both on and off-road. That’s not all either…
Held in the stunning grounds of the Ragley Hall Estate, Warwickshire, on the weekend of 24-26 June 2022, the Adventure Bike Rider Festival is the ultimate weekend motorcycle event.
It’s where thousands of like minded riders all come together to make new memories and experience a weekend of freedom. The ABR Festival is more than just a traditional biker get together though.
Across the weekend you can take part in a host of on and off bike activities including rideouts, masterclass sessions, off-road tuition, and much more.
Early Bird tickets to the Adventure Bike Rider Festival have now sold out, but you’re in luck! There are still a number of Discount tickets available, which will give you a saving of £15 on weekend tickets.
