a guy in my work has one. not seen him though i leave at 3 and he comes in after me in the morning. same colour as yours but not looking as good as that one. nice big bike i was thinking the other week that i would be handy to have for the winter.

the heated grip switch on the one in my work is like somthing from a 1978 austin.

Very nice. The Tigger is on my shortlist for my next bike. What's it like as for riding long distances?

Well when i collected it i did 514 miles which took 10 hours due to 4 blizzards and mad amounts of roadworks with no real issues. Only stopped for fuel, 1 coffee and a 30 minute lunch at a mates. The only thing i have decided is it needs hand guards, fingers were a bit numb. to be fair it was minus temps and either snowed or rained for most of it. riding position was very comfortable, and because of the increased height visibility was an improvement on the sv. Wee bit wind blast but less than i'd expected.
On the whole couldnt fault it. Would not have managed the run on the SV.

Real reason i got it was for multiday trips and pillion rides as the sv didnt quite fit the bill. Wife needed a comfier seat and more luggage space
