[soph9]

BTW...love NZ..was down there on an old Honda 250 back in 1989 We will get back some day for sure.

We used the Heideneau K60 on our trip cross country last year and we love them for the riding we do too. Thanks for the psi input it probably will come in handy on some of the sections of roads we will be riding very soon.

as for the Tiger? It does LOVE the road and feels like a substantial touring machine. With the extra weight up top although not really noticeable on the tar I wonder my self how this will feel off road. We are used to the smaller F650GS and will have that to compare. One thing is the seat is wider than our Beemer and when standing I can really feel the width. Still can hug the tank but again time will tell if we both feel comfy off road too. 9 days and hopefully today we get our luggage and some little fun accessories!
