Title: 1997 Tiger for sale
Post by: engine22 on March 12, 2015, 08:24:50 PM
I'm afraid it is time to part with my beloved 1997 steamer. It has been and still is a great bike, but I got a deal I couldn't pass up on another bike, and can't afford two. Bike is loaded with Corbin seat, full crash guards, full GIVI rack (lockable, removable hard trunk box and panniers), and longer windshield. Brand new chain and sprockets just installed, and oil changed within the last 500 miles. 47K miles and runs like a beast.

Here is the ad: http://westslope.craigslist.org/mcy/4928590809.html (http://westslope.craigslist.org/mcy/4928590809.html)

Let me know if you're interested.

Thanks.

Good luck with the sale. Curious though; what did you replace it with??

A 2009 VStrom 1000. Doesn't quite have the character of the Steamer, but better suited for the type of riding I do these days..

Just you asking that question makes me hesitate to sell my Steamer!  :^_^

You said it! But the Strom is a very capable bike.

the vstrom is plain vanilla
