Beware the Tiger stored in sheds in Renmark! 17 years in a shed in this river town famous for its blistering summers has turned the front TT100 into a piece of bitumen. Off to GC Motorcycles for a new correct sized ( 3.25 x 19 )Metzler Lasertech tyre. Received the new fork gaiters from Steadfast cycles today. The front guard is going to Nigel Morrells this week for a proper paint job and pinstripe.

This used to be on the " Pedestrian Slicer " front numberplate.

What a great logo.

Reasons to own and ride a Tiger instead of a Bonny

More torque at lower revs Lighter No carb syncing therefore generally smoother Cooler Name Cooler Logo

The Tiger in all its English beauty. A previous owner chromed the side covers - not sure whether to return it to the original black or not.

Does anyone know - for real - whether the front guard should be chromed or painted. I have seen copies of magazine ads showing both.

Next on the list is to fit the spin on oil filter.
