The radiator on the Explorer 3-cylinder engine is pretty large, making it susceptible to dirt and stone impacts. As the original plastic radiator guard provides only limited protection on rough gravel roads, we recommend replacing it with an aluminium radiator guard. Touratech's radiator guard for the Triumph Tiger Explorer offers impeccable protection against stones is made from black anodised laser-cut aluminium that unobtrusively blends in with the bike's overall appearance.

The radiator cover can cause the engine to overheat under extreme conditions with high outside temperatures and an extreme engine load.
