Triumph Tech Forum
Hi everybody,
Just signed up with this page and jumped right on the Triumph chapter. I´ll have to agree that there is a life outside Munich! Riding Beemers for my profession I sure know what those bikes are capable of. But having had the money together to buy a new bike for myself I decided to have a 955i Tiger. Now, and the few conversation on Triumphs for overland biking is kinda increasing my doubts about the capability of that bike. My biggest headache at the moment is: how does a high tech,fuel injected thing like the Tiger do on low octane gas? Are there modifications possible or necessary? Do I have to sacrifice the catalytic converter to leaded gas? Is there a cheaper solution to saddle bags as the original Triumphs? Background to all those questions is that I`m thinking of taking that thing all the way to Kyrgyzstan and now you can call me crazy with my girl on the back! Sincerely Jordi
