Whoever was riding the silver Tiger on Easter around 6 p.m. by the outlet mall I saw you. Great looking scoot!

I figured you'd have a better chance of winning the lotto than 2 tigers in Dawsonville :D

Sanjoh, you'd be surprised how many riders live here in town. I know I think 5 residents here who post on ADV. Was 6 when Beemer Chef lived here. But yeah, that's be cool to have 2 Tigers cruising around town.

Thing about seeing a certain bike in Dawsonville is that it's usually someone from 'the city' headed to or from the mountains for the day.

After a few thousand miles I've come to realize the tiger is a rare bike! I've had other riders about fall off their bike trying to figure out wtf it is!

Looking for parts is a pita as well. Guess I'm used to the Honda, Yami, Suzi, dealer support networks.

Used stuff is nigh impossible to lay your hands on, as folks either tend to hang on to the good stuff, or even if they're selling a Tiger, they'll keep the farkles on the bike to boost the asking price.

You'll probably just have to go with new parts, which are easier to find, although not with the regularity of the Japanese Big Four.

I've been quite happy with Bike Bandit... http://www.bikebandit.com/partsbandit/o ... 292869.asp (http://www.bikebandit.com/partsbandit/oem-nav~submit_from_stage~13~section_dept_id~1~model_dept_mfr~Triumph~model_dept_id~2292869.asp)
