Thanks for having me on the test, was good fun getting to ride at sweet lamb. A Great venue with a little bit of everything for these adventure bikes.
-
Now that's an Adventure Bike test!! 👏
-
Would love to see the midweights reviewed in exactly the same format with the Africa Twin also there as the wildcard. Great job MCN! 👍
-
As biased KTM1290 SAR rider, the comment I would make is that most adventure riders will find the tarmac parts easier than the off road/gravel road bits. It's here that the added confidence that the KTM gives makes all the difference and reduces stress, making real adventure riding more of a pleasure.
-
One of the best MCN videos to date. A fantastic review and a format that's engaging and genuinely informative. More like this please.
-
I was on the edge of my seat holding my breath...what a joy of an episode. Every bike class and purpose should be tested in their element like this.
-
Cool test! The Triumph was a bit of a surprise, but the rest fell pretty much where I would have predicted. This makes me even more eager to see the R1300 tests against the R1250
-
Wow what brilliant fun. Fantastic to have James along.
-
Best test ever I think…the offroad race was sublime.
-
Nice work gents! Great format too. I think we all look a little too much at the paper stats, but real-world riding with feedback from different riders is much more relevant and important. Thanks for the comparo!
-
This is one of the best and most interesting comparison/test reviews I have ever seen for any category of motorcycle. Great job!
-
Great test thanks guys! And a big well done to Triumph!! 🎉
-
Absolutely love this format. Getting to see the bikes in action was everything
-
Thank you for a really good watch. Bit of a surprise with the winner, but just shows what a great job Triumph have done with their bike 👍
-
I appreciate and respect Michael's reviews. He's always practical and addresses points that are important in the real world. Any consumer can appreciate that.
-
Absolutely loved the format of this test, thanks guys.

I’m going for the BMW, with all its years it still gets the second place on the road test. And in real world its an absolute joy to ride, no diving when braking, it’s still a queen, where ever you go in Europe, we can have proper technical Assistance, but in general it’s non needy bike, always eager to please its master. For me the choice is clear. And now, it is even more. Thank you for the video, it was an excellent job from NCM !
-
I love my 22 Triumph Tiger rally pro. Beautiful to ride to work and on the weekend I take her to dirt. Thank you so much for the great video guys.
-
A real comprehensive test of these giant bikes.... Thanks....
-
Love this test! I bought the Triumph after riding the BMW and the Ducati. I didn’t test the KTM before purchasing, mainly because I knew it would be more off-road focused and I wanted something that would be nice and plush on the road for longer road trips. Very happy with my decision, and you just proved what I thought as well. Great video!
