Camped out off the Tiger over the weekend in Buescher State Park. We rode Park Road 1C between Buescher SP and Bastrop SP several times over the weekend. Great little windy road with lots of elevation changes.
The photo below is from the Bastrop SP end of the road. This area was completely...
What rear tire are you running now? Does not look from this angle like a K60. I recently got some Shinko 705s. They are great on the road but I want to go back to something more knobby as my confidence off-road is shot with the 705.

Finally got my front Ohlins fork cartridges worked out. Even though the Tiger 800xc is listed as a specific application for these cartridges you will have problems if you are over 200lbs. I am apparently one of the people who got to help them work through whatever remaining issues there were...
