Only sort of off-topic: Tiger 800 vs Tiger 800 XC? And do we wish the Explorer were made in a more 'XC' like package?
The XC doesn't appeal to me personally in any way, shape or form. Quite frankly the 1050 would probably be a fine match for me.
Although I've always felt 8-900cc is the perfect size for a motorcycle.
One thing that chaps a little about these Triumphs though is the lack of range. I'm seeing most 800 riders report ~200 miles/tank tops. That kinda sucks. I have to admit I've very quickly grown spoiled by the 250-300 mile range of the wee. Don't know if I can ever go back now.
