Another tiger convert
hi all, I'm, a new convert to the Tiger camp. I had an 06 Sprint, and just wrote off my 07 Speedy so when it came to replacing the Speedy, I decided I wanted something with similar ergos, a bit of wind protection, the Triumph 1050 motor and a more comfortable seat. I picked up my Blue, 08 Tiger tonight and it seems to fit the bill on all counts. I'm really looking forward to getting some km's on this new beast.
Like a lot here, I'll consider what I need to do to fix the lights and keep an eye on the rear shock. In just 10km home from the dealer, the front end is much more compliant than the Speed Triple - great for comfort but not so great for spirited riding. Tonight I upped the front end preload, compression and damping to firm to get rid of some of the dive under brakes. Will see how it goes tomorrow when I get to ride to work.
