Another Non Chopper Post... 2013 Triumph Tiger 800xc

This is the bike that I replaced my Suzuki DL1000 with. It's the 2013 Triumph Tiger 800xc. It's pretty much the same style as the Strom but a bit more modern in every way. It doesn't make as much power (95hp) as the Suzuki but, it weighs about eighty pounds less so it still feels strong. It also feels more like a dirt bike than the Strom did, too. It's got a 21" front wheel, motocross style handlebars and nine inched of suspension travel, front and rear. I'm sure you could ride it just about anywhere, if it had a set of true knobby tires. Anyway, if you ride dirt bikes, you can tell by looking at this thing why I haven't been updating this blog. It's a f#&@in situation.      

Born Free 5...

Best event of the year will be bigger and badder than ever. You need to get out there and show these guys some love. They've been sticking their necks out to make this happen and they make it happen in a big way. 

We'll be there again this year, for sure. If you're out there, come by our booth and say hello!   

Greg's Shovel...

This thing is just about ready to roll, as well. Traditional style mixed with a bunch of modern functional parts that make it a better bike to ride. We'll get the tags and get it on the road  soon too.  

The Browne File...

Mr. Browne is ready to hit the streets. Got the plate and tags this weekend. We'll put some time on it before we turn it over to him. Seem to run well so far but, you never really know til you take it out into traffic. Should be a lot of fun.
