Got shot of my ‘07 ’Bird (and Speed Triple) two months ago. Loved the Speed but couldn’t get on with the ‘Bird. I had a ‘97 ‘Bird from new and had to sell it under a cloud. Had the chance to pick up my latest one 7 years ago, never bonded with it, never got on with it. Picked up my GS Adventure today and rode home in stair rods. I hate riding in the rain, proper poof like that me, but if I had to do it again then there’s no other bike I’d rather to do it on.
That’s two Panzers in three days.
Surprised you picked up a Tiger after John’s experience. I like them but would always pick the BM.Picked up a Triumph tiger a couple of weeks ago, 165 mile ride in pissing rain. the Tiger performed better than my waterproofs. Don't think I would have attempted it on a Bird, I'm not the best rider in the wet.
