    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...

    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?

    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!

    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...

    Luggage and Panniers?

    First off I already have a Ventura rack but I'm still obsessed with having panniers on my Scrambler, probably the same thing that makes me ogle at REI gear, lol. Anyone found any two sided luggage racks or pannier options besides Metalmule? I think it's great that they have made a set but...

    Airbox Removal Kit, covers or not?

    The weather is starting to go rainy and I'd like to keep doing some riding but I'm wondering if having an exposed pod filter is an issue? I installed an airbox removal kit awhile back and I have the side cover on the left side but the right is exposed. Is rain an issue with it? Thanks,

    Riding and camping in Portland Area?

    I was just thinking the weather in the Portland area is supposed to be nice this weekend Sept. 27-28. I have a Scrambler and I was thinking a bit o' riding and camping would be cool. Anyone know of a good route with some camping? Some light off road is okay, just got in the gravel the first...

    Hello from Portland

    Hey there, just found the site by doing a google search so here I am. I have an '06 Scrambler. I've had it for just a few weeks over one year now and I'm at about 3500 miles, not to shabby. It's my first bike ever too. I'll have to post some pics in the Scrambler forum because I just got...
