Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer

About

The Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is the highest-specced model in the Tiger 1200 GT range, designed with a strong focus on road touring while still retaining impressive off-road capabilities. This bike features a new 1160cc three-cylinder engine with a 1-3-2 firing order, which provides a more torquey feel at lower RPMs and a smoother power delivery. It comes equipped with a 30-liter fuel tank, blind spot detection, tyre pressure monitoring, heated rider and pillion seats, and hill hold control. The semi-active Showa suspension and the updown quickshifter enhance both comfort and performance. The bike also boasts advanced electronic rider aids, including tunable riding modes, ABS, and traction control. With its comfortable riding position, ample legroom, and adjustable windscreen, the Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is ideal for long-distance travel, whether on paved roads or venturing into off-road terrain. Its combination of power, technology, and comfort makes it a strong contender in the premium adventure bike market in India.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is a formidable contender in the adventure bike segment, offering a blend of power, comfort, and advanced technology. My experience with this bike has been nothing short of impressive. The new three-cylinder engine, with its 1-3-2 firing order, delivers smooth and potent power across the rev range, making it suitable for both on-road cruising and off-road adventures. The semi-active Showa suspension and the various ride modes ensure that the bike handles impeccably on different terrains. While the bike is tall, it is surprisingly manageable for riders of average height, thanks to its well-balanced chassis and adjustable seat. However, the throttle response in the Sport mode can be a bit abrupt, and the blind spot radar system, though a nice feature, may not be a necessity for everyone. Overall, the Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is a highly capable and comfortable motorcycle that is well worth considering for anyone in the market for a full-sized adventure bike.

Price

In India, the Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is priced competitively within the premium adventure bike segment. The ex-showroom price for this model typically ranges around 20-22 lakhs, depending on the region and any customizations. Once you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can go up to around 25-28 lakhs. This pricing is reasonable given the extensive list of features, including a 30-liter fuel tank, blind spot detection, heated seats, and advanced electronic rider aids. While it may seem steep, the quality, performance, and comfort offered by the Tiger 1200 GT Explorer make it a valuable investment for serious adventure bike enthusiasts.

2024 Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer on road price is Rs 24.04 lakh in Delhi, Rs 24.86 lakh in Mumbai, Rs 24.34 lakh in Kolkata and Rs 24.65 lakh in Chennai. The prices mentioned here are approximate and we suggest you contact your nearest Triumph dealership to get the exact on-road price quote in your city.

Latest Updates

Thursday, 15 February 2024 01:25 PM For the 2024 model year, the Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer has been significantly updated with a new color option, Carnival Red, in addition to the existing Snowdonia White and Sapphire Black. This model also features improved low speed control, increased ground clearance, and enhanced comfort and ergonomics. The bike includes advanced technologies such as Blind Spot Radar, cruise control, and a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System. I believe these updates make the GT Explorer an even more appealing choice for long-distance touring.

Thursday, 15 February 2024 03:38 PM The 2024 Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer boasts a refined T-Plane triple engine, delivering smoother torque delivery and superior low speed control. Changes to the crankshaft, alternator rotor, and balancer have enhanced engine inertia, making the bike more manageable at low revs. Additionally, the bike features Active Preload Reduction, which lowers the seat height by up to 20mm when the bike comes to a standstill. I think this improvement in low-speed handling is a game-changer for urban and off-road riding.

Monday, 11 September 2023 06:34 PM Triumph has introduced the 2024 Tiger 1200 GT Explorer with a range of ergonomic updates, including a flatter seat profile and repositioned footpegs for greater ground clearance. The bike also features a longer clutch lever to reduce rider fatigue and enhanced all-day comfort for long-distance touring. The Showa Semi-Active Suspension now includes an Active Preload Reduction feature, further enhancing rider comfort. I believe these ergonomic changes will significantly improve the overall riding experience.

Monday, 11 September 2023 04:47 PM The 2024 Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is equipped with advanced technology, including a 7-inch TFT instrument cluster with My Triumph Connectivity System, Adaptive Cornering Lights, and a keyless ignition system. The bike also features hill hold, cruise control, and up to six riding modes to suit various conditions. I think the integration of these technologies makes the GT Explorer one of the most advanced adventure bikes on the market.

Monday, 11 September 2023 05:59 AM In terms of market availability, the 2024 Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is priced at Rs. 33,39,000 (approximately) in India, reflecting a minor price increase from the previous model. The bike is expected to attract adventure riders looking for a blend of road and off-road capabilities. I believe the pricing is competitive given the extensive updates and features.

Mileage

Monday, 18 November 2024 03:44 PM The mileage of the Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is a crucial aspect for any potential buyer, especially in India where fuel efficiency is a significant consideration. In real-world conditions, this bike can deliver an average fuel efficiency of around 15-20 kml, depending on the riding style and terrain. On highways, where the bike can cruise at a steady pace, the mileage can be closer to 20 kml, while city riding or off-road adventures might bring it down to around 15 kml. Given its large 30-liter fuel tank, the bike offers a respectable range, making it suitable for long-distance touring without frequent fuel stops. Overall, the mileage is satisfactory for a bike of its size and power output.

Ex Showroom Price vs On Road Price	Ex-Showroom Price is the Manufacturing Cost of the vehicle + Dealer/Seller Profit + GST (Goods and Service Tax) + Transportation Charges (from the manufacturing plant to the dealership). On the other hand, the On-Road Price is the actual cost you pay to the dealership to make the vehicle legal to run on the roads. It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
