Hi.
I've I have just changed my Tiger for an America. My question is if I wanted to put shorter pipes on would i have to alter the fuel injection system. Thanks

If the pipes you install are a lot less restrictive, like the Triumph TORs, you'll have to get the EFI re-mapped. Dealers do it, they have the map. If the pipes aren't too free flowing, like the pipes from chevy605 (see Vendors section), you won't need a re-map.

Hmmm.... an ex-tiger owner in South Wales. I know a tiger owner in South Wales. He drives freight trains for a living. If it's you, then life is freaky. If not... then ignore me.

But I have an 09 (now) too. There are several ways to change the pipes, and the cheapest way (and therefore the way I've done it) was to but a pair of stock slashcuts and take the back baffle out. There are two perks to this. 1, I hate the tapered pipes. 2, it's cheap as no one wants the stock pipes. Oh and there's no need to re map. My pipes were £40 off ebay. Within 24 hours they were drilled and on. Yeah they are as long, but look a whole lot better.

And welcome.... I know how to say good day in Welsh... but spelling it is another matter!


Gina 03 America - Pretty stock - except the TBS wheel... 06 America - missing, presumed in bits. With it's TBS wheel... 09 America - It's very blue....

Thanks GinaS bit confused what did you but the stock slash cuts too and why take the back baffles out of the new pipes.
