Don't think so Jim, just wish they would bring back the lightning yellow. Natural colour for a tiger that.

It's generally accepted that Lucifer Orange is the best Tiger color, other than for purposes of expressing divergent lifestyle preferences.

I think that they should have white (Seigfried & Roy), orange and a gold. I like the blue and greens but they just aren't animal like. :razz:

I've actually had someone call my Lucifer Orange Tiger a "Tony the Tiger" Bike.

All Tigers, regardless of color are alright!
