    I have an '87 250 TZR, when it's working it goes like like the clappers...then it will shit itself and be off the road for a month while i chase down parts.

    Here's how i wish my bike looked


    Cheers, RHCP.

    The fairing is all there, just been doing a bit of work to the engine lately. When I was taking the snap I thought of moving it off that god awful rug! I knew someone would comment I guess that’s why its in the shed eh?

    Nice YZF Rob. They made a SP version of this and that’s what I am looking for next…

    Oh and RHCP's TZR if anyone was wondering...nice bike.

    They are around and they are cheap. Only problem is a lot of people flung the flat slide carbs for the street so that can be a problem for originality.

    There was one on Ebay a month or two ago - 95 model too...it was in Qld though. Im kicking myself, I should of just flew up there and bought it.

    Im in the east, up in the hills.

    I used to live in Mooroolbark, rode with the DDT crew and until about 6 years ago spent every weekend when it was not wet in the hills, Reefton spur, black spur, Marysville, Flowerdale, Strath Creek Yae, Alex, Mountain Hwy, etc, this was my life for a Looong time.
