    Hi, I'm new here.
    Just traded my 2010 GSXR750 for a Tiger Sport 1050. Hope I've done the right thing.
    Just having a look on here for snippets of info and inspiration

    GSXR750 is a young man's bike. Was looking for something a bit more upright and something that wouldn't kill my wrists and back. Being a fairly large chap (6'2") and awe bit more than 12 stone comfort is now my priority. Tiger Sport is by far the best looking bike. Originally fancied a Tiger XRX but think the 800 would be a bit lean for me.
    Tested the Tiger Sport and although I didn't fall in love with it, I do like it. A far better trade in price for my GSXR only sealed the deal

    Hi and welcome, you will like the Tiger Sport, I have the previous generation and love it, I was considering a change earlier this year but have had a really good summer on it including a trip to France and it is super comfy in standard form, great economy and a great engine.

    I always enjoy looking round Shirlaws when I am up your way. Enjoy the rest of the summer on your new bike.
