Tighter than a ducks butt
Sitting here thinking and was wondering ... dangerous I know but ...
Several different front ends have been used by various peeps here, CR250, KTM and so on, and they needed respringing etc.
What about a trumpet tiger front end? I doubt very much it would need anything other than to be set up and I would also suspect it weights the same, but there are loads about, decent quality and they take a 19" wheel which is still viable for off road use etc.
Thoughts of the XRV massive?

Y'see, I could say "You can go fast, I can go anywhere, Africa Twin" But you buggers have 'em as well so it would sound pretty lame .... oops!
...and carry the two.....

It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

I loved my tiger, but if there was one Criticism it would be the front suspension and on the triumph forums there's a lot of talk about stiffening it up

Grumpy auld man!
Also quite a lot about the front forks.
As a Tiger rider I do not think you would be any better off with the front end off one. If you want a 19" front just get one that fits as it would be less of a job than fitting the whole front end from a Tiger.
The standard front forks are OK for me but then I am an old fart that bumbles around at 40MPH!
