    Hello to all

    I've just bought a 1994 urban tiger totally standard except end can and those nasty (in my opinion) flush mount indicators, which will be changed immediately. It's in Glouster so it's going to be a few weeks before I can collect due to work commitments. I've been biking on and off since 1982 and I've wanted the urban tiger since they were new. I will try and post a picture ASAP

    Cheers
    Ian

    Not the original blade I'm afraid Blackness, the original one had round headlights :)

    Welcome to the forum Ian, lovely bike you have there, and yes, you're right about the indicators.

    Blimey........... Just loathe them, I'm looking for the correct pair to replace them. I've found new on ebay but I would like second hand, albeit good ones to blend in better

    Thanks for the warm welcome. I've wanted one for years so I'm quite excited I've had CBR 600's, Blackbird, 955 CORSA ( for racing) and a few others over the years but the Urban Tiger has always grabbed my attention. I'm looking forward to getting lots of information from this forum, once again thanks for your kind comments

    Cheers
    Ian

    Lovely bike... totally agree about the front indicators, dreadful! The same were on my RRT when I bought it, they must have been in fashion in the late 90's... I replaced mine with the bog-standard indicators, which although rather blocky and old-school, just suited the bike so much better.
