Looks nice but the 575lb "curb weight" probably means 600lbs in reality.

That is nice; but I think tweaking the bike with your own accessories and upgrades is a lot of the fun of buying a new bike. Especially a bike like the Super Ten that has a lot of aftermarket support.

Thats pretty light in compairison. I'd like to test ride one of the Tigers. Recently rode a speed triple and was very impressed. Your Tiger has the same configuration right, a triple?

Triple is the shizzzz, how'd she feel? Rode a speed triple a week ago and Iam thoroughly impressed. Triples feel so even and balanced to me.

You are absolutely right man, she's incredibly stable. I love to have a drag with no limits.
