Hi all:
I've searched around, but haven't found a reliable source for the weight balance of a stock Tiger. I see lots of people trying things to shift weight to the back, or more properly, remove weight from the front (aluminum heads, etc.). The only blurbs I've seen are in the Sunbeam Tiger history writeups online that say something like "with a near 50/50 weight balance". Is it really that good? I would think if it were, we wouldn't be trying so hard.
I would go weigh mine, but it's somewhat disassembled at the moment.
Thanks in advance,
John.
