I thought that this one would be closer than it is.

Oh, well.  I went BMW for sheer quirkiness.  The Tiger seems like just another great all-round bike.  Ho-hum.  Seems like anyone can build one of those these days.   Lol

I miss that cheesy Tony the Tiger striped paint job, but that's hardly a reason to not pick the Triumph over that second-ugliest Beemer ever made.  Plus I'm too old school, a Bemmer should be a Boxer engine.   Twofinger

Tiger. It makes sense and kicks booty. The R12? Meh. Waaaaaaaaay too much money. You could almost get an RC45 for that kind of dosh and the R12 ain't RC45. Mercy.
