    Decided to get a jump on joining the forum even though I'm waiting on a new bike to come in, about 9 weeks from now. Currently have a 2011 Kawasaki Concours14. Just sold a 2002 ZRX1200. Have had a bunch of others.

    The new bike I'm waiting on is a 2023 Tiger 850 Sport. Itching to ride it this fall before snow flies and go exploring rural roads.

    Well that was a long pause. I ended up canceling my order in November '22 so I could buy a new mower. Having now come full circle I am proud to say I'm the owner of a shiny new 2023 Tiger 850 Sport. In my usual fashion, I wasted no time installing farkles. Factory grip heated grips, Baja Designs LED aux lights, PIAA dual horn and an Altrider rack.

    Planning on adding the quick shifter, custom pannier rack (reuse old ones) and maybe a top trunk.

    Looking forward to posting helpful info and hearing from others.

    Well you got there in the end, and that's all that matters.
    Enjoy it.
