Avon Tiger Gear Remote Gear Linkage
Hi, just been down the local Library to borrow the book, but low and behold they dont have that on their system. I even saw it at the Bromley Pagent
for £11 but as i am alomost build i didnt buy it.
Well what im after is the instructions in cluding pictures of how to make the linkage.
If someone can scan and send them thanks, if not i will buy the book from Waterstones

i ended up using a westfield one, it a bit shoter then the avon one but i like it and it works well, also you have to mod the side or it hit the side
when you rev it!
i think tiger have changed theres so it's more like the wesfield one ask them see what they have to say?
hope this helps

I agree with Mat. Used a westfield one myself and it does work well
Always keep a big hammer and a condom in your toolbox, if you can't fix it with the hammer

I tweaked Tigers book design for the remote. I made the link bar out of three strips of metal, with the centre bit very slightly thicker than the
tabs I welded to the gearbox-stick and new-gearstick. By doing this there is virtually no lateral play in the linkage + the added weight makes gear
changes easier. Can't really fault it.

i have also gone down the route of the westy gear change . i had the original tiger set up for the first year . finding the gears was near on
impossible . fifth was a cow to get and it was very easy to hit reverse instead of first . (worrying for the car behind you at a junction) not to
mention it is easy to put the gear linkage into a geometric lock where by you cant get into or out of gear you require. but as stated i think now
tiger have their own version of the westy change set up . cheers scott
