We’ve been working with Triumph since 1 January 2015 and have ridden their adventure bikes from London to Beijing, Alaska to Argentina, Kenya to South Africa and all around Europe too.  We ride the  Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally and the Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro and have renewed our relationship with Triumph for 2022, using bikes from the all New Tiger range.  If your preference is to ride a medium or large adventure bike, these bikes should be top of your list!

We think the new Tiger 900 is the most capable, agile and dynamic middleweight adventure motorcycles available. The larger capacity new Euro 5 compliant 900cc triple engine brings improved performance.  It’s lighter overall by up to 5kg and the centre of gravity has been revised, moving 40mm forwards and 20mm down for better weight distribution.  It’s more comfy too because of the narrower stand-over width and the handlebars are closer to the rider.

The New Tiger 1200 range in 2022 is transformational!   It’s up to 25kgs lighter than the previous Tiger 1200 and more powerful. The Rally models have 21 inch spoked wheels and you can get a bigger 30 litre tank with the Explorer version. They’re all built for epic adventures – seems like they were built for GlobeBusters!

Planning an adventure where the black stop stops and the road becomes gravel and dirt, a bit like our Iceland Tour (above picture)?  We’d always recommend that you get some basic off road training first to help you enjoy the tour even more.  Triumph Adventure Experience has the latest models Tiger 900, Tiger 800 and Scrambler 1200.  Headed up by Chief Instructor, Matt Reed, you’ll get superb training on the best Triumph bikes, with no need to worry if you drop and damage the bike, as there is nothing extra to pay.  Phew!

When it comes to navigation we have definitely seen a change in the way people are using technology to help guide them around the world. Using a smart phone like an iPhone is becoming more and more of a popular choice for navigation. The ease of using one device attached to your handlebars and way you go. But when going beyond the normal roads and taking your bike on an adventure you need a navigation app which does what you need it to do and has the ease of upload GPX files and getting mapping. Scenic App is our best choice for mobile navigation.

We have been using a Cool Covers seat since 2018 and they have been brilliant! Cool Covers motorcycle seat covers are 98% permeable for permanent cooling whilst riding.  Air flows between you and your seat. It doesn’t heat up in the sun and keeps your bottom dry when it rains.  We’ve been in 45C heat in Las Vegas and somehow the bike seat is still cool!  But they are just generally comfy, so even in Iceland last year (as above picture), we are still using the Cool Cover!
