Oh my god my bikes in performance bike

OK its not actually mine,
But owning a reasonably rare bike, having even a 250word article in a major mag is enough to get you excited. Espacially when he's raving about it.

Acaully brought the mag for the fantastic article on the TL1000S so even more plesent that its in there.

Happy now.

I can do ego:
I rode a TDR once - the first one in NZ.
It was at the Castrol Six Hour and Aaron Slight gave it to me for a go...

Tcch. TDR250. That's TWO strokes. Not three. I've had two strokes 4 stroking. But I don't like to think what would happen it it three stroked.

It was three stroking. Thats how it eat pistons. Will have it back together end of month after ive been paid. At least it gave me a chance to sort some issues, fuelling, brakes etc.

Would have to develop a taste for beer first lol. We'll have to try getting a decent one of you pullin a wheelie or something for your profile.

when I pulled the bore apart the powervalves were go gummed up with carbon they couldnt be opened by hand! All shiny and better now. Cant wait to get it back together. At least the weather is crap. Means I dont miss it as much.

I used to own a TDR250, awesome fun, for sure. I was always keen to take it 250 proddy racing at the Greymouth Street Races, but never got there with it....
They were way ahead of their time too, only lately do we see production Super Motards, but Yamaha brought out these babies ages ago.

It's great to have a bike you know you'll never pull up at the lights next to eh? Rare bikes are legends,bikes that everyone rides are just bikes that everyone rides,who the hell would want one of those?
