    Nice one, Strada. You seem to have solved the lighting problem. :lol3 :1drink I'm trying to figure why you have sliders on your axles but no frame sliders or engine guards.

    If the bike falls over, the combination of the Handguards (& bar-ends) and the axle bobbins means most of the chassis is protected.

    I am planning a cruiser-peg kit which will also put some more protection around the engine.

    Oh, the lights work fantastic!!! :D

    I have highway pegs mounted off my Hepco & Becker engine guards. The guards work pretty good for that, even though the bolt-on pegs are not perfectly straight.

    The stick-on goatee was too distracting, sorry. :lol3

    Hey 97Octane
    It looks like you lost something in the last picture! What happened to your wife? Did she fall off in one of the twisties?

    Cool shots though.

    I like the bags. That 1050 is a hot looking bike.
    I didn't realize though, that the 1050 only burns one headlight at a time. One more reason to be happy with the '06 and it's glass lenses.

    My buddy from PA and me from AZ met in Amarillo TX at a friends house.
    Here's our Tiger's at the Pala Duro Canyon South of Amarillo.

    I have one...works like a champ...no issues...at all. Simple, effective, 15 min install and improves the stock lights. Of course I have driving lights as well. :evil

    Well worth the money AND the first farkle I did. The stock lights on the Tiger just flat suck!!!!!!!!!! This coming from a guy that just flat LOVES my Tiger. :lol3 So there ya go.

    If anybody in the Phoenix metro gets a twinlight driver...yell...I'll help with the install and you won't even need to buy me a beer.

    Picked it up a few days ago. As a recovering strom owner, I love this bike! It is replacing my FJR which was nice but I found it heavy and kinda hot (not in a good way).

    Triples rock!
