Unfortunately, my last trip did not end as it was suppose.  Watching the sea and lost in my dream, I did not saw the 90deg curve after the church.  So...I went from the sea to the earth, from contemplation to contusions, from broken waves to broken ribs.   Anyway, Can you help me to find a used front fairing?  None on ebay (there is one but in pretty bad shape). If you have a salvage yard around that have one, let me know.

Saw your post and thought Jeeze he's got to be kidding and sure enough not even on uk or .de  :icon_eek: just bide you time over the years I've literally dozens plus of course it's holiday time so less stuff on eBay.

I'd be surprised if Ivan didnt have one, postage could be heavy though.  http://www.triumph-ant.co.uk/

thank's here is their answer. I've asked them about the flasher too.: Can't help sorry there in great demand here and have been for 10 years , I think every one we have had in has had both of the parts damaged , if we get them in they will be listed in our eBay store there's a link on our website.

A couple of suggestions.

Take it to a composite repair / welding specialist to see if they can help.

Go to a custom GRP fabricator and ask if making a mould for a replacement is a viable option.

I'd wait,put up with what you have till October/November if not before one will turn up on ebay as they are all the same from 99/05.

Dad did the same thing last year on his Tigger.  Ordered a new one from Triumph.  It was not horrible in the price department and it is all new and shiny.

I came off the bike last month. Just picked up this today from my local dealer. Shiny, new, genuine. Even has the girly eye lashes. Give your dealer a call. If your colour isn't available, you can always have it painted.

Glad you're okay.

how much did you pay in our CDN bike third world,  bike bandit have it for USD420$...no way for me for a bike that old and in 95% chance of it last season.

Jayell

Not inexpensive. $396CAD plus tax. I couldn't believe it was in stock.

I really dig my Tiger and reckon there are a few good years left.

Way to much for a 17yo bike that I will sell a the end of the season or next spring.  I've made a search following in ebay and in some uk part locator. I can't believe I won't find one in the next few month.

thank you,

still searching....

Chris Canning

If your going to sell it why bother just knock the price of the bike down to the new buyer.

1- still riding the bike and hurt me to see her like that
2- people are stu....  they want to pay the price of a shit but they want to see a brand new bike

anyway, that is my choice.

The chances of you getting a yellow one are slim so then you will have to paint it as well and will it match  :icon_sad:

klingklang

sure yellow would be less hassle, but like I wrote I can paint it. I still have enough paint left from a previous fix jobs.
