Never heard of this bike until it came up on the lists of bikes trademe sends me. Thought they must have made a mistake as it looks far too awesome to be a 250.

Apparently it has the TZR motor which might not be a good thing but it seems decently priced.

I want :yes:

Looks like the same engine as the 1st model TZR (1KT) They used them in TDR250's as well. They are suposed to be a good engine according to a pommy mate who raced TZRs in the late 80's and 90's. Low kms on it too, be lots fun on the windy back roads:2thumbsup

Check the tyre and rim sizes. Some bikes of that era had 18" rear. My RGV has(18" by 4") Tyres shouldn't be a problem tho

I had never heard of em either. Looks damn sexy, sort reminds me of the RGV wolf.

Maybe if i save up enough money... hmmm... would almost consider that over a TZR
