    Good morning all,

    Andy from Atherstone, Warwickshire .
    Started riding again last week after the purchase of an 06 Tiger 955.

    Love the bike, I'm a bit rusty and I'm looking forward to contributing to the forum..

    Stay safe all

    Andy

    Welcome to the forum Andy. I'm also relatively new to the forum and Triumph ownership but there's many old hands on here ready and willing to give tips, advice and tech help with your Tiger. Enjoy!

    Welcome. Nice bike. The most important thing to do as a returning rider is join this forum. Oh, and try to keep the bike upright.
