Can't figure out which forum to be in.
I ride a TDR250. Not a off roader by any means.
Not a sports bike, touring only makes the ciropractor happy. Definatly not a cruiser.

O well. Love sports bike so I'll stay here.

TDR --Y aknow Ive not seen many of those duellies.
Did they tone down the TZR power delivery??

**unhingedlizard** · 30th June 2005, 21:51

no, wheelies as it hits 7grand. They even lowered the gearing.
Guttless under 7 , mad above it. good fun.

I know where you mean. Was that before or after the big fire? that place was burned out then rebuilt.

I don't think anyone could work out what the TDR was meant to be. I've seen one on Trade Me advertised as a 'Enduro' bike

They do sound madder than a mad thing though.

I'd love a TDR,just cause it's such a crazy idea,they are crying out to be a 350 though.Typicaly bizare Yamaha thinking....like,take a touring motor,hot it up and make it a sports bike (Vmax) Take the biggest cruiser motor you can find and put it in a sports bike (MT 01) Take a sports bike motor and put in a dirt bike.....I like the risks Yamaha take.

I know a guy in the UK who has put an RG500 square four in the TDR. Bit of a mission but its a mad thing.

I didnt know the barn had burned down. When was that? I was there in 2001/2002 i think.

Must have been the rebuilt version you lived by (green coloursteel?) I worked out the fire must have been a year or two before that. It was a huge blaze - biggest ever on the coast

**unhingedlizard** · 1st July 2005, 09:05

Would have been huge. Glad I wasnt living next door at the time.

**unhingedlizard** · 1st July 2005, 09:07

Ive seen the tdr on trade me. bit rough. Mines being rebuilt right now. TZR250 rims, R1 Brakes etc...should be finished soon.

Welcome to K.B. I don't think many people subscribe to particular forums that I can tell. Just post in whichever forum appropriate to the subject matter.
