Apologies for not posting on the Forum, but my wife and I decided (after our 2016 trip to Nauders & Zell Am See, in Austria, on our Triumph Tiger 800ABS) that this would be our last "Foreign" M/C Tour. Unfortunately, the fully laden Tiger (luggage and pillion) was too much for me to control around the many tight, smooth & slippery bends in the Black Forest, in pouring rain. Gear changing has also become difficult, due to wear & tear on my joints. So, we now have a light, automatic scooter - 2 up touring in the UK and solo trips to France & Belgium. There are rumours of an auto box Tiger - you never know, we could be back! Long live the TriumphTalk Forum and we wish you all a happy, healthy and safe (Triumph) motorcycling future. Bye for now.
