Step 1 - Run-in the Tiger then have the "Off-Road" tune installed on the ECU, my Triumph dealer charged £45. The result
is smoother running and perfect fuelling. I also noticed that the fuel economy improved dramatically. I can cruise at 80
mph and get 55-57 mpg (UK). At a steady 70 the mileage is often over 60 mpg. A 2,000 rev roll on in top gear shows a
perfect linear delivery as it rips up to and past 120. I assume the inefficiencies inherent in the eco friendly standard tune
burns more fuel in an effort to produce cleaner exhaust gases. Thank you California who have convinced the world that a
big block motor with a Cat giving 18 mpg is cleaner than a 1 Litre motor without a Cat giving 50 mpg.
THIS MODIFICATION IS A MUST HAVE, NO NEED FOR A POWER COMMANDER

Tiger 1050 some Tuning options
Comparing Tiger 1050

One weighs 7 Kgs and
looks like a shinny
Dustbin, the other is a
Remus Powercone

Step 2 - Fit a Remus Power Cone Silencer. I ordered mine from Demon Tweaks in the UK. It is supplied with a short
connecting bend and a bracket for the Tiger 1050. The Remus fits so easily I had finished within the hour including having
to remove the seat cowl. The Remus is not too loud. With the baffle it has been measured at 97 db. I love the rasp it gives
to the exhaust and my Tiger sounds great under hard acceleration. Above 70 mph it does not intrude and all I can hear is
wind noise. At one track day another Triumph with a Remus and no baffle made 99 db on the same noise meter, not bad.

A very neat, unobtrusive set-up. Fitting a Remus Power
Cone would be a good option if you take a pillion as the
standard exhaust can get very hot up near the edge of the
pillion seat.
