    Hello all. I have a 1993 Caspian blue tiger 'steamer' which I've owned since new. I was in my twenties when I bought it and I'm now in my 50's. I'll doubt I'll ever sell it!!

    Welcome to the Family. Would love a picture of the new Steed. Great machine that you don't need miles of equipment and a degree to tinker with.
    Ride Safe & enjoy

    Mine isn't the most immaculate example tour going to find, and it doesn't get used as much as it should. Work, as always, tends to get in the way.

    I'm not a hard rider by any means, more a plodder!!

    I did push the Tiger once just to see what it would do. I almost got to 130mph but it wasn't very stable and frightened the living daylights out of me.
