Have I missed the bit where you bought a Tiger?
The only comment I would add on this apparent concern over fuel range is that we live in the UK, there really are quite a lot of petrol stations, and if you are really concerned about not being able to find one within 200 miles then carry a fuel bottle.
Oh and I bought my Tenere without a test ride having ridden big singles before (DR600 x 2) and went from a Hayabusa to it. First ride I thought what the f
uck have I done?! It's not at all like the DR's, it's 50kg heavier with the same power output. The seat is uncomfy, the shock is dire, the ergonomics for wind deflection are a joke, the bars are too low if you want to stand up and it isn't very quick at all.
that was 30,000 miles ago.
