My new ride, 07 Tiger 1050 ABS

Unread postby PirateRiderBen » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:45 pm

Picked up this gem today, ohlins shock, hard bags, heated grips, HID lights, Triumph performance exhaust, gel seat, throttlemeister, and tons of other farkles. Needs a set of tires and an oil change and she'll be road ready. The few miles I've ridden her I think I can definitely love this bike. Which is great to me, coming from the near perfect Honda VFR.

I think you will enjoy the 07 1050 Tiger. I had one in white and enjoyed it for sure! Great motor and the brakes are super!
Enjoy!

The imaginary girlfriend says I should spend less time looking at motoporn. I disagree. Thanks for the pics! <bana>
