I found out how patient I am this past weekend, Due to my faithful Tiger deciding to finally attempt to leave me on the side of the road approx 10 times. I was literally taking the long way to my local dealer to look at a pretty clean 05 BRG Tiger with all the trimmings (3 bags and tank bag, crash bars and wind screen....etc). When as the day got warmer the bike at any RPM would just stop running, as if I shut the engine off at the kill switch. Then after a small break between 5 and 20 mins the bike would light off as if nothing was wrong. Turns out that at 76K miles I am just about due for an ignition pickup according to Cascade Motos amazing service tech. So I can say after owning and abusing this bike for over 60K miles the first time it tried to leave me stranded, it FAILED and $85.00 hard earned bucks later she is up and running like nothing happened. Try that with a BMW. :D Adios
