Their is a post about the copula being to high and a mod for correcting it,it may come up under search.Have you considered the Asiatam lower hull? Best thing I every bought for my Tiger,supper strong no problem's after a year of running.I'm not good with mid to late details as my Tiger S13 is early production Tiger I did not face the issues you are dealing with.I will watch with interest and help if I can.Cheers for now Blake

i decided to have a go at lowering the copula got the dremel out and ground around the outside of opening down to where weld mark is then cut off enough to fit inside of copula to me it looks a lot better will put some milliput around to make a weld later
