Thanks Tango,

I’ve sent him an email

Thanks all,

£500 is the best quote I’ve had so far, I can just about add fuel &a or pressure so best not attempt any servicing myself

Cheers

Good evening all,

I recently brought a bike after years away from riding, a Triumph Tiger 800 2014.

I need to start thinking about the 12000miles service.

Has anyone any recommendations for mechanics in the Swindon / Wiltshire area?

Given the age I’m not precious about using a main dealer (to keep cost down) unless there’s a specific reason I should?

Many thanks

Thanks for the advice, I didn’t consider that.

I do ride fairly upright, as you say it’s the style of the bike.

I’m not trying to get my knee down or anything, just enjoy cornering

I start the IAM training July 8th, I’m sure I’ll get of advise then too.

Cheers

Morning all,

Thanks for all the responses, I absolutely want to stay safe hence will not be removing them.

Thanks again for the swift replies

Cheers

Evening all,

I recently brought a Tiger 800 after 9 years with no bike, I love it!

Does anyone know what the pin on the bottom of the footrest is for? I’ve scraped it a couple of time on roundabouts hence was thinking of removing it. I did wonder it it’s a safety device warning me not to go any lower?

Any advice would be very welcome.

Cheers

Hi all,

Thanks for all the information, much appreciated. I did find IAM however didn’t find the local groups. I’ll make contact to confirm next steps and keep my fingers crossed I don’t drop it !

Thanks again

Morning all,

So I picked up Triumph Tiger 800 at the weekend, my 1st bike in 9 years!

I’m thinking of doing an advanced course and am on the bike safe waiting list as nothing is available until October.

An anyone recommended a training instructor/ school in the south west area? I’m Swi don based although willing to travel.

Cheers
