    Hi all,
    Based in Inverness and ride a 1994 Tiger 885 with only 14,000 miles on the clock.I found this in a barn although it wouldn't start it did want to. Took a gamble bought it and took out the carbs and then off to Loch Ness Restorations(check out their site) carbs stripped and electronically cleaned back on bike and away it went. Just needs some cosmetic work done but a great runner
