Yes sir/ma'am
The tiger is my dream ADV bike. What's it like to ride?
Probably the most comfortable motorcycle I've ever rode
Comfortable, hmmm. Interesting way to describe a 100hp motorcycle with a sound resembling a V8 but it revs to 10k.
I sold my tiger sport to get this and I still ride a superduke. Neither have cruise control. So I guess that's where I'm coming from. But you're right it sounds pretty hot.
Interesting. I think of comfortable bikes as cruisers, as that's what I'm used to with my GZ250, and the low seat height is super nice. Something with a high seat height like an ADV bike seems super stressful in the city (where I live), where you stop often.
I tried riding an old Ninja 500, and that thing was super uncomfortable for the 3 minutes I was riding it. Maybe that's just because I've never ridden a sport bike before, even though I've tried out a Trident 660 and a Harley Sportster, and I even thought the latter felt slightly aggressive ergonomically.
Looks like you should invest in a kickstand enlarger plate thingy rather than having to find a rock
Meh I just wanted a taller angle to get a better shot.
