Or you could turn the cylinder around and have it come out the front like the carts do.Either way they had a lot of potential as far as tuning and hp.

    That has to be a very rare one since I think we only sold 2 or 3 besides the prototype that I raced.They couldn't have made very many of them after I left because I don't think they were in business very much longer.
    Very,very interesting indeed. I know Bill has at least 2,this one is 3,so that makes 4 I know of. I was thinking maybe 10 or so got out? Guess I'm a little high? Very neat bike . I love it!
    Please help those who cannot help themselves.

    ALWAYS buying Museum quality machines,3 and 4 wheels. And any and ALL ,NOS parts,EVERY brand.

    I am turning my PM's Off,my Email is billsracing@hotmail.com,put 3WW in the subject. Thanx!

    That's a sweet bit of history and I'd love to own it. Having said that, I don't like the look of the front fender/grill. It also doesn't look like it would handle that well. The front wheels sit so far out from the kingpin/ball joint that a steering damper would be essential. The front suspension geometry also looks off, i.e., too little travel, especially for motocross. It might be fine for flat track.

    Seems like the Suzuki front ends were popular. A lot of 3 to 4 conversions looked like Suzuki as well. First on 4 wheels! lol.

    They basically were either the LT250R front end or LT230S front end. I mean heck, even us Suzuki guys don't really like the front ends! We cut them off and replace them with YFZ450 fronts!!! But for flat track racing it's daaammmnnnnn good. That's what Suzuki made them for. They were designed in 82/83 when there was mostly just flat tracks to race on. Now big jumps or anything like that.

    I'm excited to see how mines going to feel after putting the 3+2 a-arms and inche longer dual rate shocks on.... But I digress from the thread. MY BAD!!!!

    Someone buy this bike then send it to me for a tie rod adjustment and safe keeping. I'll let it sit in my living room! Lol
    too many bikes to count. too little time on hand.

    Anyone have an idea what the production numbers were on the Tiger 3 wheelers--the 250s in particular? Did they make 500, 200, what?

    I have no idea on the total number of the Tiger 250s. I only have 1 frame that is numbered and I have no idea if the numbers on the 250 were in order or if all the Tiger numbers were in order no matter the size. OC250r probably has a much better idea than I would have since he has compiled so much info.
