Tiger Motorcycles?

[highonthai]

I'm looking for the web site for TIGER motorcycles or any online picture of the offroad 125cc that just came out.

I can't find any info, Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

I think you would be very lucky to find anything on the 'net about those bikes.

Do you really have your heart set on a Tiger?? Heard some horror stories and there are some much better alternatives out there from better manufacturers

[highonthai]

No I have a new honda wave "r", just wanted to get some contact info on the company for a friend here in the states.

Don't do it

DO NOT DO IT.

I have a Tiger Ozone its <deleted>.

The new Tiger Offroad is as heavy as a Toyota Vios. They are terrible.

They have even made a Super-motard Tiger as well - waste of time.

Is there a way to post photos of my Tiger on the forum to show you what a 18month old bike looks like?

Tiger is in the same class as JRD, forget it and Jap.

You can add photo's, just hit reply and scroll down a bit to where you see "file attachments". Hit browse and find your photo. Hit open and the file name will pop into the attachment space. Hit add trhis attachment and add reply and you should be good.

It's probably better to reduce the size of it first if it is big, you only have 48mb of attachment space to use.

Let's see it!

May not be a Honda, but they have one hel_l of an ad campaign!

My apologies.... but needed just one more shot of the Tiger girl...

[highonthai]

Thanks all I found the site today...and I see all you did too.

The guy doing the wheelie must have one of this invisible stunt wires attached to is bike to get the front wheel up.

Seriously heavy bits of <deleted>.

In a tiger update - my Tiger has just had exhaust number three repaired.

It also managed to snap the bolt holding the exhaust in place at the cylinder - so that had to be drilled out as well.

THis bike is only 18 months old - when I get it back I will put some photos up

[sriracha john]

Sorry to hear your experiences with Tiger were less than spectacular. In 3 years of fairly heavy daily usage, I've had NO repairs...

Perhaps there are significantly fundamental differences between the Ozone and Smart models.

Or the people who put them together

Mraitchson's sounds like his was built on friday afternoon or Monday morning!

Probably after Song Kran!

The O3 was designed by Thai students \- not sure what that says really.

Gosh, all I got to work with for my 5th grade science project was some stupid lima beans....

My wife has had a Tiger Joker 120s for about 18 months now, and was 10 months old when purchased.

Still only 9,000 K on the clock, but no problems apart from two replacement batteries and a new spark plug, .

She says it’s a bit heavy compared to her Suzuki 125 Super Best, which she prefers.

I have had a Tiger Joker 120 for almost 3 years. I only have about 13,000k on it as I ride other bikes too. The only repair has been to replace the CDI which was relatively inexpensive.

I find it has far superior suspension and tires compared to the other brands but I think the engine is not as smooth and probably has less top speed but more low end torque. I wanted to change the gearing but find accessories to be a bit lacking compared to the Honda, etc. . I have been completely satisfied with mine.

[mraitchison]

Here is the formentioned Tiger Ozone O3

You you need to appreciate that I bought this bike 18 months ago it has 6k on the clock.

The photo of the missing bit of fairing - it just flew off one day.

The basket is rotted through

The front mud guard managed to slip onto the front wheel with out me knowing until it melted.

The exhaust has been replaced three times this time I have just welded it - a replacement must be ordered from the factory and since its been over a year for the fairing and its not come in I don't fancy waiting.
