This is my first Triumph and I'm glad I went for the Tiger as you can see!
I'm not very accomplished in the Mechanics side but ready to learn more.
Hope you like and look forward to comments and any info from all thnx ..
FINALLY THE PICS !!
try again and this time reduce the pixel count to say oh around 1500 and they will be much more pleasant to view ....................
resizing them by reducing the file size does nothing for the image size
you got to change the pixel size with a photo editing software like photoshop for example
or even simpler is to open a FREE photobucket acct and store your images online then using the Img tags they will display properly on forum msg boards .

If I can remember my Photobucket log in I will deff do that lol. I might think I know what i'm doing but truth is i'm the same when it comes to computer stuff as Bikes not quite that good lol . thnx 4 the advice will do as soon as I get time...

blimey... has that bike been used, its mint
like the avatar too :roll:
How clean is that steamer? Blimey.... was it still in the delivery crate when you picked it up?
I love the avatar too, it kinda looks like the top left hand corner of a very interesting video. can we have the rest please? :love10
Just what I thought too, the decals give the game away a bit but still, very inpressive. :thumbsup
You might want to think about replacing the plywood top box plate with some alloy before you get much more rain, unless it's marine ply of course :lol:

:roll: You're worse than my mother, really :lol:
What you percieve you lack in the mechanical region you make up for in the polishing stakes, I'd happily barter / trade skills with you if we were in the same area. :wink:
Thnx for the support lol. At least i got the message across about the lack of mech skills here :)
Lets see how long the shine last in the English weather, and the top box plate is actually alluminium, but see how it looks :lol:
I also will look forward to buggin you lot with stupid noob questions about the mech side of things :wink:
lovely looking bike... 8) I love mine, so will probably treat it to a bit of tarting up over the winter, but at the moment cant stop riding it!!
Beautiful Bike!! Welcome aboard!

Wish I could say that it will always look like that, all effort will be made but i'm afraid winter riding has always been my way, lets keep fingers crossed this does not weather badly!! think i gotta polish up on my polishing :lol:
Hard to concentrate on the bike pics with your avatar doing that on the side! :shock:

Do these bikes weather badly? Ahhm yes, unfortunately if mine was anything to go by. Not enough silicon in the magnsesium alloy. Can you say TALC POWDER? Beautiful restoration job done tho, absolutely superb :)
