    Tiger 1050 power socket for GPS?

    How scary is it to take off the fairing and get to the power socket? I bought a TomTom Rider and the Triumph GPS power cable and I want to do it myself. The instructions with the cable are lame and the owners manual doesn't show any details about where the socket is or how to take the...

    Tiger Exhaust?

    Have many Tiger owners changed their exhaust? I was looking at Triumph Arrow Slip-On Exhaust but I'm wondering if you can still use the OEM luggage with it. Any other good choices out there? I used to have a Scrambler and changing out the exhaust was one of the most fun things I did, I'm...

    Tiger 1050 Highway pegs?

    Just wondering if anyone had looked at doing a highway footpeg setup for the Tiger. Seems like if you got a Givi or SW-MOTECH Crashbars/Engine Guards you could put some highway pegs on. Anyone tried that? On longer trips I would love to be able to change change my foot/leg position without...

    Tiger 1050 Handguards?

    Just went for a ride last weekend and froze my hands pretty good. I'm not too interested in wiring in hard warmers but what about handguards? Looks like Barkbuster Storm and the Triumph handguards are both about $100, any preferences or another brand out there? Found a great hamburger...

    Street pics

    Here's my new Tiger. I was going for that Ghostrider look on the way to Condon Oregon. http://www.flickr.com/photos/40737277@N08/3758684839/in/set-72157621720011973/

    Tiger Accessories?

    Hey gang, Just made the switch from a Scrambler to a Tiger this week and I have no idea of where to look for accessories online, I'd love some suggestions. Staring all over with a blank canvas haha. I got a 2009 Tiger, white. Thanks,

    Buttpads, anyone bought one?

    Oh sweet! Did you buy a medium seat pad? Kind of looked like a dualsport wouldn't really work. Did you buy a rally or deluxe one?

    Buttpads, anyone bought one?

    I ran across a link to Alaska Leather on ADV Rider for these sheepskin butt pads, sounds pretty cool. Anyone bought one and tried it? http://www.alaskaleatheronline.com/servlet/StoreFront

    Barkbusters Storm handguards?

    I sent an email to Barkbusters, just thought I would post the reply I got. Many thanks for your email and interest in Barkbusters products. We have only had experience of the S1 with the Triumph Scrambler via our distributor in the USA - Twisted Throttle. Other options that might...

    Barkbusters Storm handguards?

    Oh anyone tried these yet, just saw them on Twistedthrottle.com http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/4880/528/ Might just be for rain and wind since they don't attach at the end of the handle bars. Still, kind of interesting. This is the first one I've seen that would fit...

    Metzeler Tourance tire pressure?

    Seems like I had seen a post about this before but I couldn't find it. What tire pressure should you use for a set of Metzeler Tourances? When I googled it I saw a big range anywhere from 28-36 all over the web. Thanks!

    TomTom 2 Rider GPS and Ram mount

    That looks sweet, do you sell them or know where to get one? Anyone know if the stem nut is the same size on the Bonneville as the Scrambler?

    Fly screen

    I love the Dart flyscreen I put on mine. I think it helps quite a bit for me. Before I put it on anything over 60 mph was rough, now it's much better. Seems like it took all the wind blast off my chest. I think it looks sweet too.

    Taking her home - and a bit more

    ST vs RS?

    Hey all, I did the Oregon 500 rally a few weeks back on my Scrambler and it took a good week for my back to feel good again, lol. My local dealer has several STs and one RS used, I'm really thinking about one of them. Just wondering what the main difference is between the ST and the RS...

    TomTom 2 Rider GPS and Ram mount

    I just bought a TomTom 2 Rider and it came with a Ram mount but the thing looks freakin huge to mount on the handlebars. Any alternatives to hooking it up? I would love to have it right below the speedometer instead. I bought it not so much to navigate to places but more for finding my way...

    Max Load?

    Wow it's been awhile, but the sun is out again :) Anyways, I can't seem to find my manual and I was wondering what the max load for a Scrambler is? I keep having friends want to go for a ride but I'm not sure who can go, haha. I weight 240 lbs, how much do I have left? I did put a set of...

    D&D pipes?

    I didn't do it myself, I had a great guy with a shop do the work. It was around $300 'ish for the labor but he also put on the air box removal kit at the same time. Let me know and I can give you his number.

    Luggage and Panniers?

    Nope I gave up on Happy Trails, they wanted 10 pre-orders before they would design it and I asked around and couldn't scrounge up more than just a few people interested. I ended up buying the Andy Strapz panniers, just need to make a frame now for them :)

    Hand warmers?

    Anyone found a hand warmer setup that fits the Scramber. I'm still riding and it's getting into the 40's and my hands are cold, haha.

    D&D pipes?

    I have the D&D slipon exhaust and I love it. I also did the airbox removal kit at the same time and afterwards on the dyno I had a 14 hp gain! The sound is awesome too. You can see a picture of my bike if you search for my username, it's called Hello From Portland.

    Luggage and Panniers?

    Anyone ever checked out these guys Andy Strapz http://www.andystrapz.com/productdetails.php?pid=34&BACK=51 They make a cool looking soft pannier setup. Probably would need a light frame though.
