    Service Manual for Mk2 & Mk3 Tiger 800, covers all model variants

    For those with a good memory, hello again. For recent converts to the T800, Hi I’m Mark from Marks Motorcycle Parts.

    I run my own small business, based on Anglesey, writing and selling motorcycle maintenance manuals and selling a small range of accessories.

    You may remember my book for the Mk1 bikes. Over the past few weeks I’ve been putting together a new, much bigger book for the Mk2 and Mk3 bikes. It covers all the XR and XC variants and runs to 152 pages with 119 pictures. It covers all maintenance required, for both the mileage and annual services.

    Available here - https://www.marksmotorcycleparts.co.uk/product-page/service-manual-for-triumph-tiger-800-mk2-mk3

    Who are my main competitors, and why would you buy from me instead?
    Haynes – I print on far better quality paper than they do and make an effort for all photos to be large and well presented with plenty of numbers and arrows showing what to remove and in what order.
    Also the Triumph factory – Their service literature is undeniably excellent, but it does assume quite a lot of knowledge and you can’t actually hold it in their hand, you have to buy a time-limited download.
    I write for the home mechanic, offering a friendly arm around the shoulder and help & encouragement. Where you need a factory tool I tell you the work arounds and suggest ways to easily and cheaply make your own service tools. Bodywork removal is covered in some detail including the sizes of the bolts used for each panel.

    My Mk2 & Mk3 book will be available from the start of Sept 2021, and I’m taking pre-orders now, at £20 plus post & packing (only available as a paper copy).

    The book for the Mk1 bikes is still available, and because of reduced demand you can now buy this as a digital download.
    Thanks for reading, Mark

    Morning guys,
    After years of holding my book prices to £20, increasing print prices mean I will have to put them up them a little. From the start of August 2023 books will be £22. I’ve had a good following on the forum for many years, so if you want a book I’m giving you a chance to order before the prices go up.
    Cheers, Mark

    Hi Paul,

    Sorry but no - I dont have access to a bike for pictures etc.
    If anyone wants to leave their bike with me for a week or two over the winter I'll happily give it a free service in return for writing the book.

    Cheers, Mark
