Hear the mighty Tiger roar!

[africajim]

Ok, first attempt to link a video so bear with me!

On the way home from the Stella I went over the Col de Galiber, fully laden, two up full hard luggage and a tent! Alison on back with small digital camera.

The overall video makes impressive watching but too big for my website! I've edited out a bit where I thought it would impress some of you guys, on the straight you hear the Tiger bounce off the rev limiter!

Take a look, hope it impresses!

Agreed, but were they squeals of delight or panic

Very good video.

Luckily this wasn't the bit where she said "I really don't like this"


Ageed, it must be hard to hold on while filming on the back like that. The thing with having an intercom is her constant sound effects!

It was a beautiful day on the Monday coming away from Bardonecchia, the scenery, the roads, what's not to like?

Trip of a lifetime, and doesn't the Tiger sound well? The triple is a lovely blend of sound. Lovin the bike!

[Chad]

there is somthing very sexy about that triple growl

another triple that made my made my hair stand on end was the foggy petronas at brands WOW

it they could make that thing go as fast as it sounds nobody would catch it

so the new tiger has been released with plans for a new adv style one later in the year BRING IT ON cos with that bigger lump its going to ROCK

I LOVE BIKES ALL BIKES I WANT ONE OF EVERYTHING

I've heard rumours of another Tiger coming out. There's been a lot of moaning about the new one as it's a bit Fazerish looking.

Personally, I like the look of the new one, 1050cc mill, upside down forks, lovely foxeye looking nose and smart compact tail, I'd be tempted!

Latest news is, as you say Chad, a wire wheeled ADV to follow. I can only wait and see, would I consider it? Damned right I would!

Well, having chatted to my buddies in the engine development team in the pit garage, I can confirm they're working pretty hard on that...
