OK... I've seen enough pictures, wanna see the real thing. If I knew there ever were any here i'd try and track one down here. How many different models were there?

I believe Tigers came in 80, 125, 200, 250, and 500's. Was 3 wheeler racing very big in canada? If not I'd guess that there wouldn't be too many up there.

Anything would have been available here if someone was willing to look after the shipping part of it. Never seen one around yet....

A friend of mine said there was a cop in Winnipeg that ice raced a 250 Tiger in the 80’s.

I’m sure any that made it North of the 49th were bought in the States and then hauled up.

Tiger tidbit. I was told by an aquaintinance that his friend raced against the Tigers in the U.S. back in the era. He relayed that the Tigers were the ones that he could never beat in a flat track race.

People that bought them from Canada drove down to the shop to pick them up.

honestly i never understood how some forums will attack you like 50 micky D seagulls on a french fry when someone replies to an old post. if your adding to an answer its still a contribution for others with the same question. its not like the internet doesnt have the space!

It wasn't an attack, my friend. Why would I care if the mexican responds to old posts? Its none of my concern that he's sitting around reliving the glory days of 3ww, in his basement, word searching "canada" and then getting so excited to get a hit that he doesn't realize the original post was made when pluto was still a planet. Christ,, the Patriots have been to 7 super bowls since that post. What other fun facts can you think of that have happened since this thread began? I know the Celtics have a ring, the Bruins won the cup, and the Sox have THREE world series titles! Maybe Nico missed the first post because he was listening to his new iPod.

bush was still on his first term when this post was made. the 400ex was king of 4 stroke atvs and 2 stroke dirtbikes were still the more popular choice

Since this post was made, I've grown chest, back, upper ear and inner ear hair. Some of it has even turned gray.

The slightly acceptable 7.3 powerstroke was being made in 02. Ford hasn't had a good engine since. Cummins motors on the other hand have gotten better and better, along with the trucks the reside in

I watched my son take his first steps when this post was made.
Now he's asking me if the 160mph on the Honda Accord speedometer is as fast as it will go.
