I reckon it should called "The Gym". Because anyone that drops one is going to have to have spent some time in a gym learning to weight lift. :shock:

Actually, I agree with aeronica that Explorer is fine as it is but also that the Explorer monica would have been better used on the 800XC.
2013 800XC 33000 miles & counting.

QuoteHigh-capacity generator

Class leading 950w generator allows the simultaneous running of multiple electrical accessories, including heated rider and pillion seats, heated grips, high power fog lights and a top box with integrated power supply for charging on the move. The bike also comes fitted with a power socket situated close to the ignition, which can be used to power a GPS unit or items of heated clothing.

950 watts you can put aircraft landing lights on this sucker and still have power left over for your coffemaker  :ImaPoser

QuoteRider aids

Electronic cruise control, traction control and switchable ABS brakes give Explorer riders piece of mind, and come as standard equipment.

I am starting to like this beast ....................even the look is starting to grow on me , oh hell I'm doomed ...........want want want  :love10

I suggest "Devourer" !
1. To eat up greedily (miles/road/perhaps fuel)
2. To destroy, consume, or waste: other unnamed brands of biggies
3. To take in eagerly: what one will do when placed on bike  8)  8)
4. To prey upon voraciously: yes yes wanna have one yyes yes yyyeesss

Please don't ban :oops:

With the pictures of the Kawasaki's 1000 Versys in todays comic along with obligatory ugly silencer but IMO a better looking front end, it certainly give buyers a fair old choice,Triumph will be looking over their shoulder before they've sold a bike.

Chris, that Versys looks like a multi strada to me, I agree with triumph looking over their shoulders tho'.

I will be at the NEC to see the beast in the flesh, doing some stand duty for the TRF.
Black 885i Tiger UK based
Orange 955i Tiger Canadian based
Norton 961S never got it, tired of waiting
