I will continually edit/update this first post. I am keeping track on computer all user names and there tigers (some non members as well). Since some users wish to stay anonymous I will not post owners. If anyone wants to ad their tiger PM me. This will be done by make and number. Some newcomers have been searching hard and turning a few more up. I have heard two different levels of possible production numbers which will be investigated further.

I would like to keep this thread free of alot of useless posting so people pulling it up can get good info without scrolling thru tons of posts.


Congratulations if you are the new proud owner of a TIGER ATV 3 wheeler. One of the Rarest PRODUCTION racing 3 wheelers ever produced. Their old school racing stying, unique simplicity, and ROTAX motors make them extremely sought after. People who find them experience a great sense of accomplishment and feeling of luck since many collectors who wish to buy one have been unable to do so even with money in hand.

TOTAL TIGERS --32

PRODUCTION NUMBERS.. Have ranges from 200-300 total (lowest estimate) to to under 1000 at its highest estimate.

The tiger 80 appears to be the lowest conversion production and the 125's the lowest factory production. Even with that said the tiger super 4's were said to be about 50 produced maximum maybe less. Even with some TIGERS popping up recently compare that to about 40,000 ATC 250r's produced in 85/86....yes guys they are a rare find and treasure for sure.......lets find all of them and keep the TIGER community alive!!!!!!!

Are you going to get the number thats stamped on the frame to add to each one? Just to see if there is any rhyme or reason to the numbers. From talking to Peter it sounded like say number 110 could have been a 125, then 111 could have been a 500. Wonder what they did with the Tiger 80 vin since that started out as a KTM.

I have 5 frames and not all have numbers. If anyone has numbers and wants to offer them I will keep that info as well.

I'm not the biggest Tiger fan on earth, but I do appreciate them in the ATC world. They are so rare that I think this is a great idea for all the 3 wheeled fans out there.

I do not know how to find out years, but mine is titled as an 2/85 and the earlier models had the wider front tire 22x11x10 as in the enclosed scan from 85 line up article, which I believe would be late 84 early 85 setup Pimtout I woulds say yours would be an 85

its posible...he became a dealer in feb of 86...so these could be a few months old from the factory, and that would be 1985...its hard to say..i do know this........its a tiger...hahhaha.and thats all i need to know....

Here is a new pic to drool over, just wanted to ad this to the Tiger info thread. Also add about Mickey Dunlap, this is from June 19, 1986 ATV News. I raced GNCC for Mickey and he never had much to say about Tiger that was very nice, mostly how they did not pay the employees due to financial issues.
