FAQs

Are these tubes sold as a pair?

TNK tubes are typically sold individually; please verify your specific purchase quantity if you intend to replace both sides.

Can I install these myself?

Installation requires specialized tools such as a fork spring compressor and seal driver; it is recommended for experienced mechanics only.

Do I need to replace the bushings as well?

While not strictly required, it is best practice to inspect and replace worn bushings whenever installing new fork tubes to ensure optimal performance.

Is the finish different from the stock tubes?

The nickel chrome finish is designed to match the durability and appearance of OEM Triumph components.

Will these fit a Tiger 800 XC?

Please verify your specific sub-model against the 2012-2014 year range, as suspension travel and dimensions can vary by specific model year or trim.

What should I do if the tubes arrive with surface scratches?

Contact your place of purchase immediately; fork tubes must have a flawless surface to avoid damaging the seals and causing leaks.

Troubleshooting

Fork seals leaking immediately after installation

Ensure the fork tube surface is free of nicks and that the new seals were installed perfectly level using a seal driver.

Increased stiction or 'sticky' feeling in the front end

Verify that the fork tubes are perfectly aligned within the triple clamps and that internal bushings were not damaged during reassembly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exact fitment for Triumph Tiger 800 (2012-2014)
  • Durable nickel chrome finish prevents corrosion
  • Restores original handling performance
  • Cost-effective alternative to genuine dealer parts

Cons

  • Requires professional-grade tools for installation
  • Fork seal replacement is necessary during the swap
  • Not compatible with Triumph Tiger models outside the 2012-2014 range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These fork tubes (MPN 100-0050893) are exclusively compatible with the 2012-2014 Triumph Tiger 800. Before installation, ensure you have a fresh set of fork seals and high-quality fork oil, as reusing old seals is not recommended when installing new tubes. During maintenance, keep the tubes clean of road grime; regular wiping with a microfiber cloth and checking for nicks can significantly extend the lifespan of your seals and the plating on the tubes themselves.
