Definitely a newb re: posting but I've put approximately 3000 miles on my 96 Steamer since purchasing it last fall. Yesterday, I rode the bike in an Iron Butt ride. By the end of the day, 1080 miles and 19 hours on the road. Average speeds were spirited, shall we say.  The Tiger performed flawlessly all day long.  Comfortable, steady, fast and classic.  I love this bike.  :D  Just thought I would share how well these bikes still perform.  I guess I don't have to tell any of you that, though, eh?

Always nice to hear that somebody else is feeling the same way  8)
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
