Hi guys,
So I've finally settled on getting myself a Triumph Tiger 800 XC, and I'm more than happy with the choice.
But now comes the hard part - kitting it out properly - and I'd love some suggestions about what I should leave standard, what I should upgrade and where an upgrade should be with aftermarket parts instead of dealer brand name parts.
Best luggage options?
Crash bars, plates, etc.?
Suspension?
levers?
etc...
I don't want to break the bank but I'd like to get it kitted out as best I can.
(I'm asking this as previously I had a R1200GSA... and I kept it pretty stock standard except for changing my levers, throttle control and foot pegs, so the world of aftermarket still alludes me a little, especially getting onto a different bike brand...)
So just your thoughts here and suggestions?
