Up for sale here is a classic pile a shit from the 80's the legendry Vee triple stroker MVX 250.
Four engines obviously not going tho the one in the frame was but with bit of a rattle.
Two rolling frames with body work, as pictured...
My plan was to get a runner tidied up, use a frount end as a rural leter box and have a few v3 flower pots in the garden... make an offer, I can only say "piss off noddy"

ps: NO dreamers please ;)

It so happens way way back in the 80's the single seater (the only one I ever seen, beloned to a mate, here it is as new (already on its 2nd set of upside down egg cups) but did last the longest after that as it was well worked and rebuilt by a aircraft engineer ohh and the only fully faired RG I ever seen to.

Mate, they're an MVX I'm sure he's offering the $500 to whoever takes them away

They only came standard on the Jap domestic market jobbies, though you could order them through Suzuki NZ, if you just won lotto or something.

Nah mate, I'm all good. Mine's done, only need the one.

Tell you what though, Drew's made a mint bucket out of my spare roller. It's a hell of a lot lighter than my 3LN FZR chassis, I think it'll be quite good.

Yeah ! Im keen ... seriously . Do the spare motors have carbs and magic boxes , or at least a spare of each . Are you able and or willing to get them on some sort of freight to nelson ( that avitar is actually my right leg, and after 2 1/2 years it still aint fixed .... to the point choppin it off is a real possibility ) as I cant drive ( or walk ). I just got a reasonably whole one ( with lower fairings ) off a friend in wellington ( no spark ) and am keen to give it a go .
I have this theory about building a crank assy dumping the heavy middle cyl rod and piston and useing the lighter outer cyl parts and rebuilding the crank so as to get 120 degrees firing intervals ( need 3 middle cyl cdi's and trigger coils ) just like the old DKW's . Starting a project like this sure would be easier with that pile of flower pots you have there on hand.
