I hope this has works not sure if the image is too big or too small ? I'm sure I'm not the only one who has computer problems as I only use Apple Macs at work and cann't get my head round my wife's pc. Any way this is the new bike just after I brought it home

Title: TIGER EXTRAS
Post by: SHROPSHIRELAD on August 11, 2010, 10:44:58 AM
The engine bars are the ones Triumph On Line sell as they look the same to me. Lucky for me some had spent alot of money bolting items on to the bike before I brought it . since I took the pictures it now has Touratech oil and rad covers a MRA screen the flip type which makes a big difference for me. Hoping to fit BMW hand guards to.  Does any one know if the Touratech Skidplate with fit with the Triumph On Line engine bars as this is next on my list.

For me the screen works very well when set at it's highest settings. I'm 6ft2 and have the seat height set in the middle.   The bike came with the stock screen which as you may be able to see had been cut down slightly this to works well........

Another welcome from me to a fellow "blacktiger". You have a nice clean example of the best colour. Did the previous owner use it at all?
Keep your eyes peeled for a UK Tiger meet next year sometime. It'll be posted on here in the "Up and Coming" section.

I did want one in orange but couldn't find one in good condition at the time.  What kind of polish do you use on the body work as I'm finding all the polish I have leave smears on the black plastic.
