    Gonna try and save another kitty

    Just drug this one into the shop. Have you ever seen one with a red frame that's not a 125? Check out the decay on the rear sprocket.

    That is what I picture the fabled 175 to look like.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

    Congrats for sure.....VERY early model!!!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    I found this Tiger thru a friend that knew the owner. I got ahold of the originol owner who raced it for 2 years back in the day and he gave it to one of his buddys. I called him up and did a little horse trading and got it to the house. The original owner did tell me it was one of the first ones. The motor was not included. The one you see in the pic was one I had bought for another tiger project, so I will need to get another motor for this one. The RM is a 76 model that is real nice. Anyone wants to buy it PM me. The pics make the rust look worse than what it really is. As for the sprocket, I dont know. It's coming apart in layers.
