This one is for Coyote Chris.
Chris, you made some noise about considering a Tiger 800 a while back, and I haven't heard anything from you since. Well the gossip now is that Triumph, Honda, KTM, BMW, and Yamaha are all makeing some significant changes to their adventure bikes. You may have been wise to sit on your hands for a while. You may end up with an '18 model with good new things, or be able to buy an outdated '17 model at a close out price. Either way that's a win for you. I can't believe how smart you are!!!!
So, until the Motorcycle show when all these new bikes are likely to be announced we really don't know much. MCN has had some coverage or European models, but that doesn't mean we will see them here. After we get a look (on line) at these new bikes I bet the forums will light up - even for us "dated" people.
