We have an old TDR Motor. Still runs.
We could talk about it, we have no use for it so maybe my dad would sell it, i'm pretty sure he wants it to go.WM

Carburetta.. is that some type of machine gun.. like a Carbine Buretta?

My bike is fuel injected but you didnt get the joke aff man.:hitcher:

Ahhh "brain suddenly turns on" my gixxer is a 98 and a carbie so i thought your TLR might be the same. Well it probably won't come with injectors then aye??

Sweet as WM the only problem is getting it to dorkland.

hondacmx450: Sent you a PM

Hmmm sorry mate no payment plan thingy. Have a look though. And unfortunatley after the CBR600 and now the gixxer600 i still don't think i'm ready to handel the awesome power and handeling ability of the mighty GN250 :rofl: :rofl:

Not at the moment untill i can sell the CBR i am kinda strapped for cash... a lot. Hence the "carcker deal" scenario. :violin: :violin:

yo aff man, got my old GF engine im taking to pieces. you are more than welcome to it but its a in lots of bits. I still have 99% of the bolts for it... got carbs with a few bits missing (not sure what tho). you can have it for free when im done with it.

its missin the water pump cover, other than that, as an engine im pretty sure its all there. Got an old set of headers with a fucked zorst can if you need that too.

im pretty sure i've got a cracked water pump cover in the gargre somewhere... just a matter of finding it. Would be sweet with a rangi weld on the outside - just as it was going on to a bike i wanted to sell i wasnt too keen on it looking shit. I actually have 3 engines. But the others will cost a you a lil to take away despite needing labour done on them to get them going again.

Well i'll wait till i sell the CBR anyway. But after a good chat to a boat builder mate of mine it looks like it might cost a bit to much to get the whole project sorted. So now i gotta decide is the nest project gonna be.
1) A bike motor powered go-cart
2) an el-cheapo bike converted into street fighter trick bike.
or 3) something with that brush cutter engine i got floating around in the garage (prob motorised skateboard or something)

Just have to wait till the CBR goes though but i'll see.
