    hi all, this is my first post on the site, collect my Tiger Sport Tuesday, pretty excited about that, but not looking forwards to the journey, collecting it in Leeds, 400 round trip.
    One question, is there a site I can download a workshop manual for it, it is a 2017 model, so the latest one. Thanks in anticipation of a positive result.

    What colour are you going for as I am waiting until early September to get a black one.

    It’s a low mileage silver one, 919 miles on it only.

    Yeah I'm sure that you will love it.
    I opted for a black one but not sure if I have chosen the right option as none available until September and after a bit of research I think cleaning may become a chore.
    I had a test ride on the silver one and it looked great.

    Good morning and welcome in! Check out the Triumph website for help with a manual. If memory serves me correctly, some are available while others are not. I bit the bullet and bought one from a dealer, pricey, but worth it. Good luck!

    Welcome to the forum and good luck with your new ride. I think the Haynes manuals for your bike stop at 2015, but that could change any time. That may just leave you with just the online Triumph version to consult. IMHO access to an accurate manual is well worth the money you pay, unless you never intend to turn a wrench yourself. I've always bought mine as part of the original deal for the bike. You may want to look at this: https://www.thetriumphforum.com/threads/workshop-manual.7898/

    Welcome Martin. You can download a workshop manual from Triumph at a cost. I think there's a link in the thread HD posted above.

    Welcome to the Asylum you should fit right in. To keep the inmates happy we will need photos of you're new bike when you get it
    Great idea to buy a silver one and spray it BLACK as you Don't have to wait till September to get you're new bike:p

    I like your way of thinking , with my spaying talents it would come out matte black anyway. Just had a call from the dealer saying that my new bike has arrived early and I can get it next week if I want, I think that he is just trying to get his sales figures up for the 18 reg. Told him that I would wait till 1st to get the new reg, it's gunna be a long 2 weeks.
