Hi all just joined the forum
I'm currently the owner of a tzr250 3ma I've had it 2 years and have slowly rebuilding it as when I got her she was in a sorry state
The engine had been demolished fairings were knackered and just about everything was hand painted
It's took 2 years and a lot of stripping cleaning and painting to get her to where she is today
She now runs and is very close to been finished she's not show standard but I do I tend on riding it as often as possible
Good to be here and merry Xmas
I also own a vtr firestorm in case u wanted to know lol

What TS - you mean you missed yesterdays ITV4 documentary on Kenny Roberts the golden years, last weeks rerun of the transatlantic match races & this afternoons Top Gear special where James May got to squeeze a tuned RG500 motor into an RS250 chassis & obliterate Clarkson in a Murcielago round Spa?
Even Gok Wan did a TV special squeezing a troupe of eastern european pole dancers into undersized Kushitani & Nankai leathers whilst simultaneously growing himself a pair of Haslam bugger grips. You should get out of the garage & watch more telly, you should.

R1Zman.. You will have to recommend your satellite service provider so I can tune to the channels your watchin'... Closest Ive got to your TV is watchin a repeat of top gear travelling across Vietnam on tiddlers only to sink them into the sea trying to turn them into boats..
I'm glad I don't ave a telly in the garage

Link your PC to the telly with HDMI and watch this .... Peter Williams, an academic and brilliant engineer riding in the TT on a bike he designed for the factory ... not strokers but really good watch for 50 mins

Just watched it, brilliant vid from the BBC (when they bothered to make an effort to show bike racing) .. Love the 1970s clothes too

This film had a big influence upon me when I was 14 years old when I saw it on TV, particularly the bit at 6:47 where they are unpacking brand new TR's and running them "straight from the crate" just caught my imagination.

Can't remember how many times I got Barry's autograph, once in the ropey old toilets at Snetterton ...!
