The tornado looks to me like a brazilian built XR 250 and apart from the kin seat was a great bike for the job.

Right. Thanks for the heads-up on the seat. Good to know that the choice of bike is sensible.
That there are panniers is interesting. We're giving Loc 2 Roues a go. I don't s'pose you know what tools - if any- came with the bike.
I'll get back in contact with the company to get a bit more detail I guess.
