I've just clicked the 800xc over to 500 miles today, so first service next week and we'll see how she really opens up.

Although,,,, I have been doing some comparisons with the Tenere... and,,, well,,, despite the massive power difference the Tenere handles the mountain roads much better, is faster and more responsive on difficult roads. The Tiger is more at home on the more open roads. They do make a nice combination of bikes to have, as they pretty much cover all conditions between them.
