[TIGER1454]

Hello all,

I have taken delivery of my 2006 Tiger from a company called SKIDMARX based in Weymouth, Dorset.

They had my bike at their factory to develop a HUGGER for the UK/USA and European market place.

Whilst my bike was with them they also produced a DARK TINT screen and headlight protectors for the TIGER. The screen is taller than TRIUMPHS touring screen, and has for me, sorted out the wind noise.

You can contact them via their Web site address, just put a search in for SKIDMARX.

They are also looking for a spoke version Tiger for HUGGER development.

SKIDMARX gave me the HUGGER, SCREEN and HEAD LIGHT PROTECTORS as a thank you for using my bike.

So if you have a spoke version Tiger get to them and you'll have some free goodies aswell.

I will try to post some pics, not sure how to do it yet. Can someone help?
If not my bike has been pictured for their web site, sould be on there very soon, have a look.

Merry Xmas to you all.

Hello geordie955 No it doesn't.

Hi there , I've just taken delivery of an 06 Tiger and as with a lot of 6' plus people, am interested in a screen that works.
How have you found the Skidmarx for buffeting and noise?

I am also interested in the hugger and have emailed Skidmarx for details along with the h/l covers. Other covers look severely butt ugly.
Thanks for your post.
Cheers

Hello CEBEE
The screen is taller than the Triumph touring screen and narrower.

I had the the Triumph touring screen on my bike. All I can say, is for me, the screen is much quieter I'm 5' 11" tall.

The hugger is very good, keeps the rear shock and rear nice and clean, and really sets the bike off nicely.

The headlamp covers are dark tint for photographic purposes, because the clear ones dont really show clearly on photographs, I think that makes sense!

I can email more photo's if you wish.
