This is my first Triumph and I'm glad I went for the Tiger as you can see!
I'm not very accomplished in the Mechanics side but ready to learn more.
Hope you like and look forward to comments and any info from all thnx ..

FINALLY THE PICS !!

try again and this time reduce the pixel count to say oh around 1500 and they will be much more pleasant to view ....................

resizing them by reducing the file size does nothing for the image size

you got to change the pixel size with a photo editing software like photoshop for example

or even simpler is to open a FREE photobucket acct and store your images online then using the Img tags they will display properly on forum msg boards .

How clean is that steamer? Blimey.... was it still in the delivery crate when you picked it up?

I love the avatar too, it kinda looks like the top left hand corner of a very interesting video.  can we have the rest please?  :love10
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Just what I thought too, the decals give the game away a bit but still, very inpressive. :thumbsup

You might want to think about replacing the plywood top box plate with some alloy before you get much more rain, unless it's marine ply of course  :lol:
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

 :roll: You're worse than my mother, really  :lol:  

What you percieve you lack in the mechanical region you make up for in the polishing stakes, I'd happily barter / trade skills with you if we were in the same area. :wink:

Thnx for the support lol.  At least i got the message across about the lack of mech skills here  :)
Lets see how long the shine last in the English weather, and the top box plate is actually alluminium, but see how it looks  :lol:

I also will look forward to buggin you lot with stupid noob questions about the mech side of things  :wink:
