    Hey everyone, just signed on. Just purchased an 01 Tiger 955I. Been a Honda rider my whole life but my last street bike just didn't seem appropriate for the 1/2 hour of dirt roads to the ranch. My first question is parts? OEM & aftermarket. Suggestions?

    Hi, Jay. Welcome in.

    Most consumables need only to be good quality aftermarket, e.g. brake pads, oil /air filters, chains and tyres (tires??).:)
    Triumph genuine parts are not noted for their reasonable prices.:(
    Reg/recs and stators etc will cost an arm and a leg if you go down the 'genuine' route.:eek:

    Hi jay, welcome in, there are a bucket load of dealers out there supplying good quality after market parts for bikes , there seem to be more on your side of the pond than on ours, I don't know the preferred sellers though, you would maybe have to contact US based forums for the better shops.
