    Classic race bike display, Manfeild 3 April

    Manawatu Orion Motorcycle Club are celebrating the centenary this year and are doing a classic race bike display at Manfeild on the sunday of the NZ Road-Race championships.
    Bikes will be on static display throughout the day and will get to do some parade time on the track midday or thereabouts.
    Whose interested in bringing along a bike that would suit this display??
    either add to this thread or PM me
    cheers

    Seriously, did anyone ever race one
    I know when they came out they were $1000 cheaper than the RZ250 and the Suzuki RG250 was another $1000 dearer than the RZ

    I remember watching the RG250's dicing with the RZ250's down Puke straight in '83...RZ's were 5km/h faster but RG's had them through the corners......sorry off-topic..
