In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The Versys 1000 and Tiger Sport 800 produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. When it comes to agility, the Tiger Sport 800 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 39kg less than the Versys 1000, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the tiger-sport800 offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
