I spotted this for sale on Yahoo Auctions recently and thought it may be of interest here. Its a Suzuki TU250 Volty...with an RG250 engine transplant.
Apparently the frame is mostly standard, with only a few small modifications. Bodywork, suspension and chassis fittings come from a few different bikes. The front wheel is standard Volty, while the rear is assembled from a TS125R hub and Yamaha SR rim. The clutch has been converted to hydraulic control. The two-stroke oil tank is housed in the seat tail-piece, which has a sight glass for checking the oil level.
The (translated) description included the comment "...after 6000rpm its quite exciting"...!
Regards,
James |
