I have just bought myself a nice black shiny Tiger 800 ABS Roadie with lots of fancy bits on it.
Its real nice to ride & makes my R1200ST look very very sad.
It does however sound like a Dyson Vacuum cleaner, which is a great shame.
My wife came out to the garage and pointed out that though the Tiger was black it did not look like a Harley ..(and sounded shit)....and went back inside.
I am still thinking about that comment.
Do you think I should buy her flowers?

Hey up Lads,
Nah the Roadie is all you need unless you really are going to go on the dirt.
The XC has a higher seat height which is not a plus for myself, which is why of course I did not go for a GS1200 and yes you can get a lowered seat but they look naff.......
Really not joking the "Dyson Dirt Sucker" exhaust tone is bloody awful, everyone to their own here, some may think its sweet.
But then I am used to the quite nice tone of the R1200ST with it short Bewolf exhaust which sounds great when up to speed.
Nearly lost the Tiger on the way home as I daydreamed into a fast roundabout in sports tourer mode!
Thanks for putting the Pics up Al.
