  • I’ll add the Tiger XR to the list of ones to try for sure - thanks.

    It looks to be usefully lighter than many at 210kg but the tank is smallish. Do you remember how far you were going on a tank?

  • They look great - two slightly bonkers types raced the Baja 1000 on one AND finished. They've got to be pretty tough, even if they were fairly heavily modded.

    In my general experience Tank Range is almost always > Arse Range, irrespective of the bike. I'm pretty sure all the adventure bikes have got larger than average tanks though.

  • Made a decent watch! Surprised they lasted aswell as they did, gearbox issues sound more like rider abuse/ terrain so relentless you stop giving mechanical sympathy because you just want it to end. Air filter pretty standard, they aren't cut out for that dust without being cleaned out evry few hours.

    The alaska 5000 mile job sounded ace, but it's one of those timed paved Road jobs, not really that much
