    Hello !
    I'm new to the forum, I'm interested in replacing my suzuki vstrom 650 for a tiger 900 gt

    I'm looking to learn about the tiger

    I do not like going to the dealers, I do all the service myself,
    but I fear a new model may have problems that may require an expensive part replaced, and the dealer will not be happy unless I'm doing the services with them.

    Just went on a bit of off-road ride with a group, a couple of tiger 900 rally were part of the group and they seem way more competent than the large BMW gs a large KTM 1290 , and the couple of middle weight v-stroms

    Cheers!

    Hi and welcome to the forum. :cool:
    The new Tiger 900's are as complicated electronically as any modern bike.
    I wouldn't have thought that you could service it yourself without affecting the 2 year warranty.

    The tiger is home !
    Love the handling and the engine sound
    Feels smaller than the vstrom, not by much, but certainly lighter and more nimble
