    Thanks for the add. Bought my Tiger 900 GT Pro about 9 months ago. It had a couple nuances initially but the more I ride it the more I really enjoy it and the nuances are seeming to disappear. I live in Greenville, NC. If there are any other Triumph riders near here I'd like to link up and do some riding, and swap tall tales and big lies. DSCN4357 - Copy 3.2mb.JPG

    Cheers from The City of Oaks. I'm about 85 miles away up US-64.


    That's a badass looking bike you got there.

    Yep, the western part of NC is great for riding but I live in the flatlands near the coast. I do make it up to the NC, GA, VA & WV mountains at least 6 times a year to whittle away at the chicken strips on the tires :p and to ride dirt roads and trails.

    And STOOOOOPID driver headquarters is right here in Greenville, NC. I think it must be a law here that you must drive while staring down at a cell phone in your lap... surprised I haven't gotten a ticket yet!

    I was just there for a couple days up in the northern burbs. They definitely have a penchant for pulling out into traffic with little regard to oncoming vehicles.
