    Hi guys,

    I've been lurking on the forum for a couple of days now, so I thought I'd introduce myself.

    I'm Jay, I'm based in Liverpool and I'm a Capricorn. I like long walks on the beach... Wait...

    I'm new to Triumphs, and I'll be picking up my new (to me) Tiger 955i next weekend. I've been riding a Bandit 6 for the last two years, and while it's been a lot of fun, I NEED a bigger bike and so I've bought myself a Tiger :biggrin:

    Next week can't come fast enough!

    Cheers for the welcome!

    I'm sure I will enjoy the new bike. I'll definitely know after the 200 mile ride home after I pick it up!

    As for red vs blue argument, I'm neither =D
     
  9. Will it be rude to abbreviate your name - mister?

    just wondered :wink:

    Welcome - from the posh suburb down the road :biggrin:

    Welcome to the forum, J, and good luck with the bike - good choice, best shaped Tiger ever. Where you getting it from?

    Hi Bry,

    I'm picking up the bike from my dad's up in Scotland. Southern Scotland, mind you, so it's not too bad =D

    So, I picked up the Tiger yesterday and rode home to Liverpool through the wind and the pissing rain.

    The official verdict is: I love my Tiger! It was the most comfortable motorway journey I've ever had, and the ride position is so much easier on my knees. I think I'm on to a winner here!
