Update: Sold and gone back to Auckland :bye:
Hey all, 'tis with a heavy heart that I must announce the sale of the bucket. Basically, I don't have the spannering acumen or time or dolleros to invest.

On the bright side, some lucky fella (or falice?) is going to take the reins of this peaky 2-stroke racer! :clap:

This one came to me via Shellracing and it's basically a Yamaha RX125 air-cooled two-stroke (24mm carb as required by rules) in a Suzuki RG150 frame.

Great Dunlop TT900GP tyres in pretty much new condition:
90 front / 100 rear
(plenty - the knees have touched down in the wet)

Comes with spare engine, new piston, rings, and a few other bits - including race stand!

It's been plenty fast enough to lead the B group (always first off the line), and in the right hands would certainly give the A's a hard time.

All the nylon is in the right place, so it's ready to race!

Forks have just gotten new seals and oil.

All this for a paltry $800ono

Oh man, a real, non diesel bucket racer, you *really* sure that you want to give that up!?! I regret selling my beast and ended up buying something nowhere near as fun as my 2smoker cause we all know how addictive bucket racing is!

You'll be back.... :blink:

Thanks for the support guys - the bucket may be gone, but that just gives me more time trackside for awesome bucket action photography! :banana:

Hi, I bought 1 of these as a paddock hack for the kids, the problem is it will start, run for 2 minutes then stop. I have spark, Ihave replaced spark plugs, points. Cleaned fuel tank, fresh fuel, stripped carby. Any ideas??
Cheers.
