Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Pro: High adventure on two wheels


TRIUMPH has taken a bold approach with the 2024 Tiger 1200 GT Pro's design.

The sculpted bodywork, sharp lines, and muscular stance gives it a commanding presence on the road.

The large windscreen offers excellent protection from rain and wind, and the comfortable ergonomics make it easy to put in long miles.

The TFT display is modern and informative, providing all the necessary information at a glance.


The Tiger 1200 GT Pro is equipped with Brembo brakes that offer exceptional stopping power.

The feel is progressive and the bite point is well-defined, giving me the confidence in all conditions.

ABS comes as standard, ensuring safe braking even in low-traction situations.

The brakes are powerful enough to bring me to a stop quickly and efficiently, even from high speeds.


The braking system is well-balanced, providing consistent stopping power regardless of the load or riding conditions.

The ABS system is effective at preventing wheel lockup, even on slippery surfaces, ensuring that the rider maintains control during braking.

Overall, the braking system on the Tiger 1200 GT Pro is a high-quality component that provides excellent stopping power and safety.

The semi-active suspension of the Tiger 1200 GT Pro provides a remarkably comfortable ride, even on rough roads.


It effectively absorbs bumps and potholes, reducing my fatigue during long rides.

Additionally, the suspension helps me to maintain stability at high speeds and provides excellent support when cornering, preventing the bike from leaning excessively.

To suit my various riding preferences, the suspension can be adjusted manually.

Overall, the Tiger 1200 GT Pro's suspension is a standout feature, offering a comfortable and stable ride in all conditions.


The five distinct modes are Rain, Road, Sport, Off-Road and Rider.

These modes adjust parameters like throttle response, ABS sensitivity, traction control, and suspension to suit diverse conditions and rider preferences.

Rain Mode provides a gentle throttle and heightened ABS/traction control for wet conditions.

Road Mode strikes a balance between performance and comfort, ideal for daily commutes and touring.


Sport Mode caters to those seeking thrills, with a sharper throttle, reduced safety interventions and firmer suspension.

Off-Road Mode provides a more aggressive throttle, reduced ABS sensitivity, and increased traction control for tackling challenging terrain.

Meanwhile, Rider Mode allows me to customise the settings to my exact preferences.

The Tiger 1200 GT Pro is incredibly stable at high speeds and is a natural highway cruiser.


The chassis is rock-solid, and the suspension provides excellent support, ensuring that the bike remains planted even in crosswinds.

The large windscreen offers excellent protection from the wind and rain, making it a comfortable and enjoyable motorcycle to ride at high speeds.

The Tiger 1200 GT Pro is powered by a 1,160cc triple-cylinder engine that delivers a smooth and linear power delivery.

The engine is capable of producing a healthy amount of torque, making it easy for me to accelerate effortlessly from low speeds.


The six-speed transmission is precise and smooth, with well-spaced ratios that make it easy to find the right gear for any situation.

Weight distribution on this machine is excellent, making it easy for me to manoeuvre through traffic and on winding roads.

The low centre of gravity contributes to the bike's agility and confidence-inspiring handling.

It is surprisingly agile for a motorcycle of its size.


The chassis is well-balanced and the steering is precise, making it easy for me to carve through corners with confidence at Kuala Klawang, Negeri Sembilan .

The suspension provides excellent support, ensuring that the bike remains stable even when pushed hard.

This Tiger is not as nimble as a smaller adventure bike when it comes to tight hairpins.


However, it is still capable of handling them with ease, thanks to its stable chassis and powerful engine.

The 2024 Tiger 1200 GT Pro, priced at RM113,600, is a versatile and capable adventure touring motorcycle that is designed to conquer long distances and diverse terrains.

With its powerful engine, comfortable ride and advanced technologies, it is a worthy contender in its class.
