Hey guys, I have been out of the scene for a while through work and travel but have final settled down and will be moving to Palmy in July.
I am looking for a 250 2 Stroke racer perferably 1989 so can be raced in both Postie Juniors and F3. I used to ride 125GP and addicted to 2 strokes also am building an RD350 air cooled racer but that is a bit more long term.
I am either looking for a bike ready to race, slicks, suspension, pipes etc not to worried about power what a well set up reliable bike or if unable to find a ready to race does anyone know of anyone with a rough de reged bike in the shed they wouldn't mind selling to have a new life?
I have restricted myself to my BSA B44 for the road as my job dosnt like speeding tickets, but craving getting back to the track as a rider and the speed :)
Please let me know if you know of anything happy to travel/biketranz.
Cheers

That looks like an absolute weapon! does it have a race history? Haven't seen a GPR frame since the IMD250 at 2013 Nationals, that was a cool project, would love to have a chat to the GPR engineers incredible stuff!
I have an RG50 that needs putting back togeather and did ride an FXR for a while, is there a local bucket track in Palmy?
Is that 300 for sale?
Cheers.

Very nice bike, while I would love a TZ/RS 250 there isn't really anywhere to race them anymore can't ride in f3/superlite and to slow against modern day 600's. While amazing machines quite limited to collector's items and track days, unfortunately.....
Plus at that price, I would struggle to justify riding the thing!
