The most i have ever ridden on the Tiger is 738 miles in one day. I was pretty knackered at the end of the ride and i certainly knew i had done it ! But considering that i have several bad vertebrae in my lumbar spine and osteoporosis in my neck, i cannot imagine being able to do it on any other bike ??

My only concessions to comfort have been the gel saddle, an MRA Vario screen and for mega long rides i fit cruiser pegs to the crashbars..... looks a bit strange, but just being able to change the position of my legs is a godsend
