    Though I am no tiger expert, I feel that replicating the extremely simplistic strip down look of a tiger engine and frame will be simple, just match the colors! Obviously you will have to make your own fork clamps. One of the most challenging things may actually be plastics....

    Don't really know anything about Tigers, but WOW that rear sprocket is HUGE on that bike! It must be like a 60-70 tooth?

    personally i would go with the 1st gen frame. Fatty front tire, no scoops on the tank,,, just a bare, raw race trike like a Tiger
    too many bikes to count. too little time on hand.
