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

No matter how smart you are you can never convince someone stupid that they are stupid.

I thought it was quiet too. All I could hear was a high pitched noise, turned out to be coming from my heated jacket controller  :*&*
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

It is quiet isn't it  :icon_sad:

I think it's two years coming up since I sold my 955  :icon_scratch: . And the idea was to get my house extension done, get a more secure brick build garage, and get a 1200. Unfortunately......covid kicked in, I could't find a builder, the builder I did find turned out to be a complete Walter Mitty character who knew jack sh!t, then when I finally found a good builder to complete the extension the price of materials had sky rocketed !! So I've got no money for another Tiger, and won't have any for a long while. I'm even going to have to get a job !!  :icon_eek: :icon_mrgreen:

So I think my motorcycling career of almost 40 years has come to an end. I've got away without any major injuries, so it might be time to call it quits. I always pop into the forum every day, but there's nothing much I can contribute any more  :icon_sad:

I hope the forum continues, it deserves too. It's is such a wealth of information on early Tigers.....the most comprehensive on the interweb. So if you're on other Tiger sites, direct others to come on here for their information.....and fly the TigerTriple flag  ;)  :thumbsup
Safe Riding.

You never know how a Tiger might find you Tiger-G. ;) You just have to be open for it to happen. After 40 years it might also be hard to kick the habit. ;)
