    08 orange tiger here, just love the thing, not bad on gravel either. Wish there was more tire choices out there and more skid plate options. 50 plus mpg and plenty of power. Mileage is the main reason I didnt buy ktm, and I love ktm. But at least the tiger has the ktm color so it fits with the rest of my bikes.

    Greetings DP and DP admirers...first time post to this thread, but subbed for a long time.

    +1 on the Tiger 800XC...I've had mine a year...a mix of day trips on forest service roads and twisties in N.Ga, TN and W.NC. as well as a couple weekend jaunts around the SE. If I could only have one bike, this would be it...fortunately that's not the case...:D

    I think BMW, KTM and Triumph have nailed it in terms of mid-weight, do-all bikes, but of the lot, the most balanced is the Tiger...and ya gotta love the motor!

    Oh thank God. I was horrified that you might be bike-less for an extended period, thus I'd be DP Treadless and might have to work at work instead of read this.
