The fully adjustable fork of the Tiger Sport accommodates the rebound damping in the left bar and the compression damping in the right bar. During the basic set-up, the engineers in Hinckley slightly overshot the target – even with the valves fully open, the fork still dampens tightly.

If the tiger should go hunting in pairs or with luggage, the preload of the shock absorber can be easily and easily adjusted from a distance.

It was not until 2016 that the triple was extensively revised as part of the Euro 4 update. The result was a drive full of character with top manners.

In contrast to the MT-09, the Tiger weighs significantly more and has a much higher center of gravity.

The CP3 engine is also pure joy in the Euro 4 vote. The cover above the collector is supposed to simulate a stub exhaust. fake!

Three-cylinder fun bikes in a duel

Content of

The Yamaha MT-09 and Triumph Tiger 1050 Sport have a lot in common, for example an in-line three-cylinder with around 120 hp. However, the two motorcycles also have a displacement of over 200 cc and a weight of almost 50 kilograms.

She hammers in a super sporty pace Yamaha MT-09 up the mountain. The lustful drive inspires with refreshing liveliness and spontaneity. Pressure from below, punch in the middle and further thrust into the rev limiter. Amazing! The fact that the rear section swings at full throttle at the corner exit has not improved much with the model update. To put it bluntly, the booth wobbles like a cow’s tail because of the shock absorber underdamped in the rebound. Nevertheless, the Yamaha simply seduces you to heat as soon as the triplet starts its growling song.
