This is my very well set up Tiger 955i. It is a brilliant adventure tourer for NZ conditions - great on the highways either solo or two up, and easily able to handle our rough and bumpy backroads.
Extras/features on the bike include: Oxford hotgrips, givi pannier mounts, scottoiler, MRA adjustable screen (worth over $300 and eliminates buffeting), new K&N washable airfilter just fitted and at the same time new long life plugs and valve clearances were done (didn't need valve adjustment).
Rear tyre done about 3000km (Pirelli Scorpion) and plenty of wear left in it and the front one.
Thunderbike crashbars are fitted complete with auxiliary spotlights which are great on windy roads and dark country roads
It is also listed on Trademe (user name 'Mabru')
I've decided to head a little more to the rough adventure side and bought a KTM but rest assured I believe the Tiger is an exceptional bike for NZ conditions.
Other features if not familiar with a Tiger - 6 sp gearbox, either 23 or 24 litre tank (can't remember which) which takes you about 320km until the reserve light comes on with around 5 litres left. Maximum torque is achieved quite low in the revs on these bikes and around the speed limit it will effortlessly accelerate past anything without gear changes.
I haven't done much riding since fitting the K&N Filter but it should further improve performance and economy.
