ADVrider - View Single Post - Tiger 955i on the IBA rally, is this doable.

A friend of mine has done some IBA stuff on his Tiger. I think his was the older version though - the 900. It blew the top end on the way to Alaska a couple years ago. He had about 150k on it. I think that's a bit premature. He rides fast, weighs well over 300 and does not pack light. I'm guessing these are factors.

I heard from a turkish guy at work that he knows of people with 500k kms on their triples at home. Your bike should be fine.

Maybe a Scot Oiler and a few Rotopax?

Good luck!
