Miss mine, I had one between 91 and 94, red/white Jap import with the indicators built into the tail. Loved that bike, lent it to a mate and he smashed it up and disappeared - some mate :evil:

Great handling bike, went all over on it - best was a run back to Blackburn from Newcastle on the A69 Hexham - Carlisle before the speed Nazis ruined it, then over Shap on the M6 with no-one in sight. Never forget that run. Had LC's and YPVS but the TZR was just so...right.

Quality! I'd love a proper "smoker". Maybe an RS250 or similar. Corner speeds and braking are phenomenal. And that powerband...

Fitted new wheel bearings front and rear. Degreased a ton of greasy things. Checked swingarm over, bit of a file here and there, ready for the powdercoaters along with my rocker covers (gloss black for those) :thumbup:


Oh and painted lé radiatoŕs Image

Took it out for a long ride and gave it a proper cleaning. Might just be that I haven't ridden it for a week, but it definitely feels faster :lol:
