I see you have a Tiger 900 .  I bought my wife a 2020 900 GT LRH before they hit the show rooms in 2020 .  She likes it and its a nice bike.
Add 1 tooth up front and GPS / speedo speed are spot on Wink

Thanks for the tip! Very tempting as I hate the bigger discrepancies between speedos and GPS that some people tend to excuse. I don't. The Tracer 900 GT I traded for the Tiger was off by 1 mph and that was good ... can't say the same about the RS, and I hear the Tiger is similar. Problem with adding the tooth is that acceleration will get slightly slower, but it's a consideration come time to change.

The Tiger is nice but it has assembly quality issues, and other quirks that I am coming to find out with ownership. Overall, I am not yet regretful of the purchase though ... great bike to ride.
