Tiger down

[WIDGIN]

How about next Saturday 05/19?  

Anybody Georgia Tigers game for a ride from Roswell, TWO, etc.?  

I just found out that's a better day for me than Sunday this coming weekend.  Supposed to be sunny and high 70's.

The photos that were posted of the bike damage were very interesting and showed very clear damage to the tank and fairing despite the bike having crash bars.

I am planning to get some crash bars for my 2006 Tiger and have been considering the bars available from Touratech and Thunderbike. The Thunderbike bars are more expensive and look a bit "agricultural" but would offer more protection because they are wider up by the tank. But how much protection do you need? I like the neat, compact, design of the Touratech bars but worried that they did not offer sufficient protection to the tank and fairing. It would seem that the Touratech style bars do a good job of protecting engine cases but offer little tank/fairing protection. I am now convinced to spend a little extra and get some Thunderbike bars so that my tank and fairing might have some extra protection.

Perhaps with Thunderbike bars the tank would have been okay.  I'm not sure but I really don't like the looks of any bars except Touratech or Hepco-Becker.  I'm pretty convinced that the fairing would have been toast no matter whose bars were installed.  



Please install the Thunderbike bars and crash it for us.  Enquiring minds want to know  :roll:
