When I bought my Tiger, I brought it home on a flatbed truck - in pieces - and lots of boxes!
My wife said, "I can't believe you paid $7,000 for that."  The 7K included a Triumph Bonneville motorcycle, which I sold for $2,000 - that I promptly fed to the Tiger - along with several more thousands of dollars.  And, it was very much worth every penny.  My kids called it the "Save the Tiger Project."
Anyway, throughout a total rebuild Rick, Curt, and Tiger Tom and Joanne Erhardt provided parts and advice that were invaluable.  The parts were always of the highest quality - as was the advice and technical support.
Also, the people on the Tiger List proved to be a great resource as well.  I needed a part that I could not find to buy.  A guy on the list sent me the part.  The note inside said "Happy Birthday"  (it wasn't my birthday).  I called him to thank him and to pay him.  He said, "Buy me a beer the next time you see me." We both knew that we would probably never meet.
I've had several cars over the years - muscle cars, Corvettes, hot rods, motorcycles, etc.  I have never met a nicer group than those who share interest in the Tiger.  Tiger people are the best!
