Wanted Tiger 955i

[agfoxx]

Hi Tossers,

I'm coming back to biking after a few years away from it (and from the UK, incidentally), and after two 1200GSs I fancy a change. I also don't really have that much money.

Would anybody on here be looking to part with a Tiger 955i? I really don't want to go above 1500 quid.

Thanks!

Double your budget but there’s a clean one at Ryders…given the time of year they may have some flexibility

Or look a little older and buy a - in my opinion - fabulous looking steamer.

I agree with you (I had 4) but they don't seem to be much cheaper if you can find one.

I had this on my marketplace watch list a week ago so they are out there

That looks like a very nice bike there!

There are a few on Ebay but most over budget though.

What's a steamer?

What's a steamer?

It's an affectionate reference to the solid build quality and low tech that go on for ever (like a steam train/ship).

Have a look at Nice N Fats add in this section he posted in June. A Triumph 595 that is really a 955 only built better with a few refinements that they later dropped on the 955 so they could make it cheaper. He has it priced right inside your budget at £1200. They are crackin bikes. Let us know how you get on please and good luck

Thank you! For me at least (perhaps it's just me) the thread only goes to mid-June, and there's nothing from Nice N Fat in there, I'm afraid.

Yeah, this one. I knew I saw one recently and went looking for it.

Sold Thread 'Triumph Daytona T595 (1998) £1200'

FOR SALE is my August 98 Triumph Daytona T595

I bought this last August from a deceased's estate and it has sat in my lockup ever since under a BIG pile of cardboard boxes

It's been off the road for around 14 years and has 35500 miles on the clock

It's had a new battery and fuel pump in the last week as both were knackered it having stood unused for so long. The bike now starts on the button and gets up to temperature within a few minutes before the fan cuts in. Prior to...

This just popped up on my FB page.
If you fancy a steamer might be worth following up.

That is exactly what I was thinking
