    New to the Tiger family! I'm a long time rider (52 years) and long distance traveler. I am pretty sure I'm going to trade my 2016 Vstrom DL1000 with 71k miles on a Tiger 900 GT Pro. Been really lusting lately!

    I do all my own work on bikes including the dirty tire change the hard way. Hope the valve adjustment
    on the Tiger will be a little easier than a Vstrom.

    Wondering if my insurance will go up or down? I have Progressive right now. I own four bikes currently but really only ride one most of the time.

    So, looking forward to reading comments about this bike and enjoying more motorcycle stuff.

    Purchased today but Red instead of White! I found one with 800 miles and got a steal of a deal!
    Now, if I could only change my profile name somehow!
