The Tiger and Tornado share the same frame and body, the Tornado has chromoly and the Tiger has mild steel. The suspension on the Tornado is about 6" wider and therefore longer travel than the Tiger.

What would you like pictures of?

That thing looks like mechanical sex!

I made that comment again just a few mins ago to my wife and again she asked, "Why do you call it "mechanical sex?"

I said, "Cause if I bought it, I pretty sure that's the ONLY thing I'll be having sex with in this house!"

She agreed! Dam the luck! The plus side is I couldn't get any less sex with that thing. ;)

So, you going to join the club??

The first few time tje Engine wound up to 14,000 rpms, I thought of you out there riding at night and the whole camp knowing where you were from the sound, then it just became second nature to hear the Engine wound up.

It is great fun to wind it up and run it thru the gears, then in the higher gears, it begins to get more traction and gets scary fast. It takes maybe a second or so to wind out in each gear after a shift, in the cockpit, it begins to sound like a sewing machine on super steroids. Ted tells me I am hitting the rev limiter, maybe I am holding the gears too long.

It's very tempting, trust me! I'm kinda thinking about selling the pilot to get another Drak, I'm so spoiled by the speed, suspension and braking. Makes the pilot sit more than it should. I won't be doing anything soon, just thinking right now. Only thing is I kinda want another auto car, not sure about the shifter car yet but after I see how fast it is maybe it'll change my mind. Till the next ride.....
