That's why I had to get my airhead gearbox rebuilt every 20~25K miles. Tiger's OK with 50K on it. Yeah the Tiger's change is a bit notchy but it hasn't broken yet.
Having ridden a rental R1200GS for 3200 miles around the USA West coast, I wouldn't buy one. It went alright but at times it was like riding a bucking bronco what with the torque reaction, the sudden clutch action and the enormous amount of transmission snatch. If my Tiger had that much slop in the chain I'd stop and adjust it! Also, far too expensive to pay for all the gimmcks they fit.
