Re: [emrat:10130] Fw: 1050 Tiger

I had the 955 Tiger and Annette had the 1050. Hers was an all around better bike except on dirt roads. Even so, that would be the one I'd pick.

To quote our good friend Dan, there is no good reason to sell a bike.  Add to the fleet.

Thanks for the input on the Tigers.  Even though they're odd looking I kind of like the 955i but it seems like they're not nearly as common as they used to be.  From what I've heard the 1050 is an amazing machine.  Either way, I may decide to go ahead and put the BMW up for sale after the 2017 riding season is over, whenever that is.  

One question, I have heard that the 800 Tigers had some "teething issues" with regard to the EFI.  Were there any such issues with either the 955i or the 1050?  And what about ABS on the 1050 - yay or nay?  My BMW does have ABS and while I've never had to use it (knock wood!) the folks in the BMW world say that the servo assisted (i.e. power brakes), are very nice but also that if they fail it's a crazy expensive (as in, >$2500) costly fix (imagine getting a $2500 repair bill on a bike you paid $3700 for,)
