Its been to long since my Tiger so its hard to tell. Has plenty of leg room though. Fueling is spot on and has lots of bottom end. Roads are full of sand so its tough to get a feel for power, havent even had it over 6500 rpms yet. Tiger suspensions are sweet as sugar and when I get a little time I'll start playing with settings. I've had to resort to Race-tech front ends on every bike other than the Tiger because our roads are junk and spoiled, hoping I can leave it alone. How did you get the picture that large? Keep in mind I'm computer challenged!
Beautiful shot! I'm hearing nice things about these bikes. Our man, Glen in Chase, B.C. has one of these I think.... Is it as powerful as your 1050 Tiger?
I have found that if I right click (on your mouse) on someone's small image, a window will appear with "copy image" (among the choices), which I click on. I created a "Quick post", right clicked once again on the post and a window of choices once again appears, and I click on "Paste". It sticks(pastes) it on my new post.
Here I did it to my own picture of Gustov, by editing my own post and copying the image and pasteing it once again.

Rode down to the Chiropractor's office after work then out for 100 mile ride around my neck of the woods. It was a great evening for the first long ride of the year and with very little traffic to even think of. The ride home was a bit interesting though as even with my sunglasses on the sun was directly in my eyes and blinding me every curve I'd go into. I really couldn't find a good spot for pictures without looking into the sun however so I just spent the time riding
Love the narrative, Jedz!
And I'm not gonna complain. You are out in the elements and for short rides...which is an acceptable risk. Thanks for sharing your riding life.

Wet spring here, but oh boy today....just over 60? when I left the house before 9am.
Rode up to Norris Dam first, and then the long way home after that. Out for about 3 hours, and stopped for lunch on the way home.

This was my first ride this year.
Some of you know, (especially those close to me, and some at Brown County last year), that I have been struggling with riding, to the point I considered quitting.
But today was very nice. After a bit I relaxed and actually enjoyed the ride. So we shall see in the weeks/months ahead, how this goes.
Good to hear from you Justin.
'Taint really spring here either (32 and snow this morning) , but that doesnt stop you.
Hey, Bob. Good the hear you got out, and it was good.
Yah, take it easy. Nice quiet rides out in the country.

Bob those pictures are stunning!!!
Likewise Dave! I have been lurking and now that I'm riding again I just figured to share.
This winter has sucked still lighting fires for night warmth but It's dwindling...
Bikes are out, clean and I am riding... Just not too far.
Quite the revolutionary I see....LOL...
Love the Vermont Green Mountain flag.
Only posted a link successfully once.
Rode the Kat for the first time in 16 months today, after swapping a stock engine in.
Just a 65 mile loop after watching Suzuki win for the first time since 2016 in MotoGp.
It was a pleasant ride, though the tires are almost done. Some wet/dry sections, but no rain falling.
Interesting the riding postions between 2 bikes. Kinda got used to the upright ES riding position, then hopping on the Kat.
Definitely more crouched.
