a few more with some oldschool 3 wheeler stickers. The one that says Bayou 3 Wheeling (Terry Lasion) was the only local dealer for Tiger back in the 80's

Hey Holic, do you know where i could get some rear hubs for the 200. I have one just need one more. the trany shifts well and the engine has good compression. I think this 200 has a bigger engine than a 200 should, the topend is almost twice the size of my 250R topend, What do you think. I also need a radiator cover also but thats probably not going to happen. Oh one more thing Holic, is you shifter and kick starter on the left side both on the same spline, the shifter comes through the middle of the kick starter on this trike and they both rotate seprately. I've never seen anything like it.

Story on the tiger 200. My nepew is the one who deserves credit on this find (250rfanatic) he had told me about it about 2 or 3 months ago and I have tried several times to contact the boy with no luck, all i could get in contact with was his mother. Well one day my brother finally found the boy and he said we would have to talk to the guy who gave him the bike and they would split the money, when he told me who the other guy was I said well hell I know him, we went to school together, so I go to his house and he said you need to talk to jason, I said well jason told me to get with you, he said ok let me talk to jason and i will call you later :? . So here i go getting the run around again. this has been going on for over 2 months and every time I would go by his house he had ether just left or had been gone all day. I was like man its just not in the cards for me to get this trike :x . Then last night I get home right a dark and I see a 3 wheeler in the back of my bro's truck ( he lives next door) i said to myself, my bro must have found an old 3 wheeler for a good deal and bought it, so instead of going over there (i can be a lazy arse) I called him, I said what kind of 3 wheeler do you have in the back of your truck, he said why dont you come and see. Right then I knew he had beaten me to the tiger :evil: , I was like shite and a few other choice words I wont mention. I go over there and I be damned, it was the 200 tiger, but heres the good part ( for me anyway) he said if you want it it's yours :shock: (being the good bro he is) just buy the guy the mud grips that he wants and its yours 8) . I was like hell ya bro. Well guys thats the short version of the story believe it or not and sorry for novel. I am so psyced and plan on doing a full restore right away. One more bit of info, can you believe that we found the 80 tiger and 200 tiger within 3 miles of my house, who would have ever believed that, but it is true! Maybe i should venture out 5 or so miles and dig up another 1 or 2 Tigers lol.

Hubs are one of a kind
starter and shifter are on the same shaft, the starter is hollow, and the shifter shaft is inside it
the top end of the 200 and 250 is the same, different sleeves, there was no larger displacement model of that motor made.

I can help you with some of the small parts here and there, I sourced most of them when I restored mine. Good luck, nice find!

yikes, look at the forks, luckily, I have a set of tiger forks in MINT condition, no rust. I think they are sold, but if not, you can have them. (well, not HAVE them for free!) ;)
