In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The Tiger 1200 GT Pro and Tiger 1200 Rally Pro produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. Both bikes share a similar footprint on the scale, with only a negligible 4kg difference between them, so handling characteristics will depend more on center-of-gravity than raw weight. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the Tiger 1200 GT Pro. Its seat height is 25mm lower than the Tiger 1200 Rally Pro, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the tiger1200 if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the tiger1200 if you want the alternative brand character.
