I'm glad it worked out for ya :D
and it probably doesn't alter it enough to matter for the average Joe ........

But the fact remains that you will alter the stock tiger steering geometry by using a trophy front end and anyone going that route needs to be aware that they will be  altering the steering geometry of the stock tiger front end .
now what brand of oil should I be using ........... :wink:

Thanx for the replies guys, i will get busy over the next week of two... Wheels are just down the road from me, so i will have a look to see if they are ok. Not worried about corrosion as i plan to have them power coated, just as long as it hasnt eaten into the alloy...

ARSE!!!!!!!!!

this site is getting expensive. LOL While mooching on E-bay for Tiger bits and bobs, I found this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120810662002? ... 1423.l2648 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120810662002?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648)

Guese what i have been doing this afternoon? LOL Have left a deposit and pick the thing up in a couple of weeks!
Question for the more knowledgable owners out there. Will the Trophy wheels that i bought yesterday fit this bike if it has speed tripple running gear? If so i will get them powder coated blue to match the plastics.
Got her for £1200. Looks to be a genuine bike have all mots and work for changing the running gear and lots of other bills. Happy but skint now... LOL

The wife was never interested in the bike but the new girlfriend loves it on the back. Blue one will be for the two of us i think as she struggles to get on the red Tigger, too tall.
