I have done some big mile trips on my Tigers and i have had brilliant service from them both. They eat up the big miles on the slabs but are just as capable in the twisty stuff, even when loaded up like a pack mule (Side boxes, top box, tank bag etc). I have taken the Tiger on fire roads and some green lane riding but not any extreme stuff (although some here have ) It is big and heavy, but if you keep power to the back wheel it pulls through just fine.

For me it just makes those long long days in the saddle so easy, i can't ask for any more than that i guess ??

Just my thoughts ?
