Greetings all! Recently added a Triumph Tiger 1050 to the stable with the intention of riding some logging roads throughout the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Oregon, Idaho, etc.) in the US of A. Been riding street bikes for more than a few years and a buddy was looking for someone to ride the dirt with him. Nothing hard core but I’m still looking to outfit the bike right. 2008 Tiger 1050. Putting 85/15 tires on, looking to install engine guards, because life happens, and a skid plate. Having a devil of a time finding anyone who has the skid plate in stock. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Welcome to the madhouse you should fit right in. To keep the inmates happy we will need photos Tucker
Thanks to all for the warm welcome! Been enjoying the Tiger a lot. Terrific in the twisties as it’s half the weight of my other ride. Thinking I’m going to go hunt through some motorcycle parts bins at a bike wrecking yard for the skid “plate” (not mark!).
Welcome aboard Paul, hope you enjoy the forum and source the plate for your new steed, the members on here love to see pics of your bikes
Paulb61 Welcome to the family. You sure you want to associate with these inmates. You will be getting remarks now about skid marks. But they are a decent bunch and you will love them. We will be waiting for the picture of the steed. Quietens them for a while as they drool over it. Gives nursey a well needed rest. Ride Safe Joe
Warm welcome Paul, good luck with the skid plate and the off-roading. Happy to see your enjoying your Triumph
