Oh man, hate to see Tigger's selling his chopper... I saw it when it was brand new 10 years ago...



As far as the looks, to each their own. Not my cup of tea, but I respect that he made it himself, didn't just throw some money at some "custom" shop to buy a chopper...

The bike that Tigger is riding looks much different than the one for sale. A lot of thought and work went into his creation and it actually looks pretty cool....not my style, but cool just the same.


Looks as though it may have past through a few owners since then. The wheels have been replaced, the "sissy bar" has been added, and the radiator has been ....raped?  Sad looking

If that's it in the picture above you can see that it does have a Charger.

I remember when he was starting the project, got to see some of the pics in various stages.  I thought it was cool at the time. good to see something different.

hey how come the tigger isn't on here anymore? is he still slinging ink?

Just not my taste, but, hey, folks that try stuff like that pave the way for lots of other things that you can do to a bike that appeal to a wider audience.

So, go for it - ride your own ride! crazy2
