Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Lightweight For Its Class
The 2022+ Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer shed nearly 25kg compared to its predecessor, thanks to an all-new 1160cc T-plane triple engine with a titanium exhaust. This makes it surprisingly nimble for a full-size adventure tourer.
Watch The Electronics
Early 2022 models had reported software glitches affecting the TFT dash and rider modes — most were resolved via dealer firmware updates, so always verify update history before buying used.
Strong Resale Holding
The Rally Explorer commands strong used prices due to limited production numbers and high demand, typically retaining 75–80% of its value within the first two years compared to rivals like the BMW R 1250 GS Adventure.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"The best used adventure bike if weight doesn't intimidate you."
$16,000-$22,000 usedThe Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer is genuinely one of the best adventure bikes money can buy used, but you need to go in with eyes open. The 1160cc triple is spectacular — torquey, smooth, and it pulls hard from embarrassingly low revs. The semi-active suspension is properly good off-road, not just marketing fluff, and that 30-litre fuel tank means you're genuinely doing 300-mile days without sweating fuel stops. Check the heated grips work on both settings and verify the cornering ABS hasn't been tampered with — some clowns disable it and don't mention it. At this weight class — we're talking 245kg wet — you need to be honest with yourself about your riding. Drop it on a rocky trail and recovery is a two-person job minimum. Earlier 2022 models had some software gremlins around the ride modes that Triumph mostly sorted through dealer updates, so confirm those have been applied. Shaft drive keeps maintenance simple but inspect for any oil seepage around the bevel box.
