    Mint original H2's, Z1's etc still fetch good coin. The very first model TM250 went for $24500.00 a month or two back which blew me away. Wasn't even complete.

    yeah, my old man brought an H2 and H1 a while back but let a mate by the H2 off him straight away, they are worth way more and are impossible to come by,

    thats big money for the TM250 tho, like most thing, its only worth what someone else will pay,

    I'd like a nice H2 I must say. The TM was a weird one...was a 1968 I think from memory...apparently only around 200 made? Twin exhaust port...funny looking old thing. BUt yeah...huge coin!

ID:	269338Rachel's bit of Red history with the Ohlins Robert rebuilt for us. Fantastic workmanship for what I thought was a very good price. Thank you Robert! Might have to run the bike in while she's away...

    Horny as looking CR there Pete,I know of a VMX funday coming up this month sometime out the back of Sanson...be good to blow out the cobwebs (and dust off those fins) before the series.It will more than likely be on a Sunday so should suit.

    Will get back with date.

    That'd be awesome cheers mate! I may ride the YZ465, although I think I'll have to part with it to help pay some nasty approaching bills.

    Ask your mate if he'd like another nice 465H. If I sell it...I'll then have enough coin left over to finish the 400T. I'd hate to be the first person to get Rach's CR dirty.

    Are they the standard shock mount position?
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    I'd hate to have to try and clean that after a ride so it looked like it hadn't been dirty.

    Got some more pics Pete?

    Yeah it's gorgeous for sure. Almost too nice to get dirty. But we will.

    Jim Martin in Arizona. He makes 'em to order. Name your fav make, model and year...and it's all yours for what I think is a very reasonable price around 4 months later.
