The machine was made available to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Neumünster. If you really want to experience something, go there and dare to take a test drive. Every test driver is guaranteed not to forget them.
Travel instead of lawn
One may think this is a disappointment with the hearty off-road look (especially the version in khaki). But you can see it as it is meant: this is a fantastic travel machine with excellent equipment. For everything else, the Motorradtest.de team recommends an enduro of mobile.de for 1,000 euros, because it looks so coolly smashed.
A mid-range bike, which is not middle class. The Triumph Tiger has style. She is the Range Rover of the motorcycle world, and that's really a compliment.
The test bike was put to us by Triumph Hamburg.
