Just found my new passion :o :o :o :o
It used to be the Yamaha Super Tenere but its spot has been filled.
The Tiger Explorer. A shaft driven 1200+ triple, with switchable ABS , Cruise control, throttle by wire, and a 950 watt generator.
Can you say........SAAAWEEEETTT!!!!

awesome.

both bikes are sweet and the speed triple looks cool too.

while the explorer does look amazing, i've always been fond of the bonnies and that mcqueen edition is sweet

Hey Guys.....
That Triumph could be on my list too. As you might have surmised....I'm leaning toward an adventure tourer also. That thing will run down a logging road right????     ;D     Joni

Joni,
You might want to look at the Tiger 800 XC. That's the fire road runner. I've really looked at that one too.

Joni, I think that is the SE model. Its the XC that's more dirt oriented. Very sweet machines.
