For our third Ultimate Overland Motorcycle Build, we sought after a bike that is as off-road capable as it is long-haul comfortable. We think the 2023 @triumphamerica Tiger 1200 Rally Pro is a world-traveling platform powerhouse and a perfect choice as our 2023 Ultimate Moto Build. To complete the theme of the motorcycle, we partnered with @tacomoto.co to design an eye-catching graphic wrap with a world map.😍 Learn more about this year’s build at the link in our bio!🔗 • • • • • #ultimatemotobuild2023 #motobuild #triumph #triumphmotorcycles #triumphtiger1200 #triumphtiger1200rallypro #tacomoto
