reproduction Tiger rotor group buy

[trizilla]

i have been trying to work at tghis for a while and now have the ball rolling. 2 members here have spoken for 12 repop tiger rotors between the 2 of them. i have recieved a cad drawing of the new rotor and it will be identical to the original. same thickness, same appearance. i would like to get the number up to 20 and if i do, everyone will save a little more. if you dont get in on this group buy, but intend to buy one later, your gonna be paying as much as $40 more for your's.


I DO NOT HAVE A PRICE YET, but if your interested, expect to pay around $100 each for your rotor. this # is not set in stone, if i can get 20 of them sold i guarantee your gonna get them for less than 100 smacks shipped.

i'm super busy right now with work gearing up as we head into spring. i also have the dune trip in 2 weeks. so this will slowly be updated.


the ball is rolling here, PAT AND BOB C, you guys are in for your 12 pcs, we need to move 8 more to get a decent deal. call other tiger collectors that you know, let them in on this. i will handle this one time on behalf of you 2. thats it, once, after this expect to see these rotors in the range of $125 each before shipping from the manufacturer.

i'll try to get the cad drawing up for you guys, but im busy so be patient.

if you think you may want one, post up and i can see what we come up with.

Thanks again Eric. I have mentioned it to several other members with Tigers over the past few weeks, hopefully they will help us reach the 20 number. I will reach out to them again, and point them to this thread.

Thanks Eric. Finally got a computer and online. Only have hi speed internet, not doing so well. Things are crazy. Gotta get the Tigers right.

I need two!!!

What is the material?Can they be laser cut?Where I work we have a laser and could get you a quote.Might be better water jetting them though.Can you also post a pic.

[3 Wheel Drive]

You can put me down for 2 also. Is anyone going to make anymore fiberglass fenders?

Vealmonkey - 6
RobertC - 6
Blue27 - 2
3WheelDrive - 2




thats 16, you guys help out and try to dump the other 4.


according to my guy, the original tiger rotor is 9ga stainless, thats .150 thick. average rotor today is 10ga, .134 thick. if you guys can deal with the .016 difference in thickness we can go with the thinner material and bring the price down. as of now, and again not set in stone, the 9ga look like they are gonna be $80 + shipping each if we get to 20. if we dont, that number is going up a bunch. if we go 10ga, i think we can probably have them for around $65 each








here's the cad drawing.

thanks! i hope my post above has the info in it you need. these are not made yet so if we can get a lot better deal somewhere else i'm not opposed. let us know asap though, with us only needing 4 i dont think it will be long.

[3 Wheel Drive]

Ok put me down for 6 of them!

thanks for stepping up man! you sure you wanna pay for 6?


i am going to hold off for a couple more days to hear from veal, bobc, and blue on wether or not they will go with the thinner material or not.

[Vealmonkey]

I would have to wonder why if you go thinner, why would you refer to them as reproduction? The rotors are warped now, can't imagine going thinner. I'm just a goof though.

so you prefer to stay with the thicker 9ga stainless? thats all i really need to know. not looking for discussion or debate on what is better, just wanna know what you guys wanna pay for.


and dont get me on that technical terminology crap, refresh, reproduction, repop, restored, mint, rare,,,,,, i dont give a crap what they're called, i just wanna get this going.lol

[trizilla]

ok guys, $80 each is the best its gonna get. since you four are all taking more than 1 you will only pay shipping for the first one. i will send these to you USPS flat rate once they arrive. the first rotor will probably show up here while i'm on the dune trip so you will not be getting any update's for about 3 weeks. you guys have 3 wks to be prepared to pay. i will get the first rotor and test fit it but no others will be cut until paid for. each of you will get a pm with payment info

just to clarify
Veal-6
Bob-6
Blue-2
3wheeldrive-6

Sent you a gmail.

[trizilla]

hopefully the first rotor will show up before i leave for the dunes. i'm pretty excited to see one of these new. for now we have to play the waiting game.

[robertc]

Thanks for the help, and the updates with this Eric. I agree with Pat, and would prefer the thicker ones. I will be watching for the payment email. Enjoy the dune trip!

[trizilla]

i'm back from the dunes and got the 1st rotor. looks really nice guys. i'll try to get a pic up asap. so far i have bolted it to the hub but i wanna have it mounted to the trike before we proceed. i have some stuff going on in my personal life so it may take a little longer than expected.

JDS posted on their Instagram page the other day that they are now making the replacement rotors. Glad yall chose them! He does excellent work.

Did "Tiger" only make a one guage original thickness rotor?

[trizilla]

not sure. measure some of yours and let us know.. of the 2 i have here, they are all the same.

[trizilla]

so i am without a front axle for the 250 as of now due to it being at HRE getting remade along with the front caliper stay. over this week i will drag the 500 out and install this rotor on both ends of it along with the rear of the 250. if all goes well i will be looking for you fella's to start sending payment for the group buy. keep checking in guys and i will have some pictures up by sunday. here's a pic of the new rotor.

Looking good Eric. I can't thank you enough. It will be strange riding a Tiger that doesn't shake under braking. LOL

[jays375]

Wow very nice!I couldn't have provided one that nice.Plus That looks like it should be pretty true.

[robertc]

Looking forward to these Eric, thanks again!

Anyone who needs a rotor cut I have a buddy from banshee hq that can do it just look up JDscustoms I think its 80 per rotor plus he can cut logos and stuff in them.

[oile]

did these rotors ever get made?

[3 Wheel Drive]

Has anyone heard from Trizilla about these roters? Was he the same guy making the Tri Z fork caps too? I hope everything is ok.
