La Tiger 800 XC ne me plaît pas seulement sur la route pour mes trajets quotidiens vers le travail. C'est un véhicule très simple qui, grâce à son moteur puissant et pétillant, est non seulement très utile mais aussi très amusant. Sur la piste de course, je n'utilisais le véhicule que pour mes activités d'instructeur. Mais je n'ai pas pu m'en empêcher et j'ai dû prendre la piste dans le groupe le plus rapide. Le châssis de haute qualité et le moteur agile m'ont également procuré du plaisir et la Tiger 800 XC est pour moi LE talent universel par excellence.
