I think this bike will get painted up as a Tiger. That's a ways off yet.
I was going to buy some tubing but see I have enough scrap to make it work. Using the cantilevers that came originally with the frame and a fork used for a springer, I'll have the rear triangle.
I need to trim the cantilevers and the top of the fork to mesh up to the frame for welding. The fork needs to be widened for the 3" tire, that will put the fork ends width right at the chain stays.
Then I was going to try to make some templates for dropouts when I remembered the ones from a BMX frame I used for the springer fork extensions. They will work for dropouts and maybe look halfway decent.
