Man Hanso I too have been thinking about the Tiger 800 for a while now. So many places we go have roads the Rocket can't travel on safely. Well that and we know I'm old and scrawny
I have been wanting a dirt bike for a while so I can scout/explore hunting places

Ya ever since I raised Black Angus hunting has not been in my thoughts. But the rest of that explore stuff would be nice. I was just up scoping the area out where the RAA will be and accidently had to ride the Rocket on a non-paved road. Would have been great on a 800 Tiger twisties on gravel
 


Who would have guessed! - I'm also a PCYC archery coach and Archery Australia instructor... Or more correctly I was until 2 weeks ago. The PCYC gig was robbing too much family time and after 5 years of voluntary service to PCYC my family had to come first. Tried to get my son into the sport but he lost interest shortly after I bought him a Hoytt rig. Myself, I'm a Uukha / Angel guy through and through - but don't shoot enough now to justify keeping my gear.

That would be my choice for a second bike for sure.
 
WOW M8s?!
I spent two daty riding an 800 Tiger around Missoula, Montana.
While it was a smooth semi- comfy ride, I found it woefully under powered.
Look at the new Honda 1200X. My bro, Dan has one and it's a bonzer!
 
Don't under rate the big girl in the dirt.
I recently crossed a 50k section of dirt logging roads with a bunch of other bikes on a road run.
The torque and low cofg put me way ahead of a few less confident riders on discovery bikes.
140k and power slides on loose gravel opened a few eyes
Who needs a dirt bike when you have an R3
