Great day!  I am a happy new owner of a '98 Steamer, BRG.
Pictures will come soon, right now I'm on my way to home. Stopped for a late lunch dinner.
Bike feels fine and is a pleasure to ride, so steady yet agile.  I'm one happy chappy  :wings  :occasion14

I will tell more after I get home  :icon_biggrin:

I got home without any fuss. Taking pics tomorrow.  I will find out if Tigers like water when I give the bike a proper wash.  The rims are in exceptionally good condition, maybe they've been renewed.

The first time I rode mine I fell in love. It's big man sized and handles better than my old ninja. And those Keihin carbs are simple. You should have a lot of fun.

I was surprised how well these bikes handle considering the weight and size.

I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Busy day today, but I managed to ride my Tiger. Took my son home from school with it and went for a 70km ride with my daughter.  Our family loves the Tiger  :icon_wink:

Thr odometer reading turned to 99999kms today and I stopped to take a pic of it.

I try to add pics when I have more time.
