    Morning All,

    Just joined - what a fantastic resource.

    I'll be upsetting some of the purists as I've been given a Tiger 885i with a blown engine so I'm looking to put ot on a serious diet and strip out all the un-necessary bits. Possibly junk the airbox and use pods and re-map the engine.

    I think I may lean heavily on the Tech Section but any advice welcome.

    Cheers Gents,
    Jack - is there anyone local you would recommend to rebuild the engine? I was going to do it myself but after spending a chunk of money at SEP in Kegworth having the crank and camshafts re-machined etc. I'd rather have an expert re-assemble. I've bought a complete spare engine to use until it's done.
