My experience is that the Tiger's brakes need regular and frequent maintenance. Lubricating the sliding pins, freeing off the pistons and cleaning the pads. I free off each individual piston and usually find that one or more is quite stiff; ideally you should be able to push the piston back into the caliper by hand.
I use EBC HH and find the brakes good enough, but only just, though I have to say the back brake is the best I've ever experienced.
If the maintenance is not done thew brakes can be grabby, pulse- giving the impression of warped discs, and soft feel at the lever.
No idea why Tiger should be like this, similar brakes on my previous Hondas never needed this attention.
