Thurs 2nd Feb - New Bike quiz (small prizes again)

**kro** · 31st January 2006, 22:00

Don't get used to the prizes, my supply of free stuff is limited, and I mostly like to keep it for give aways at the VMX meetings etc, but for now, there will be little prize pools whenever I get round to making the quizes up.

Title says it all, you have 2 days to prepare.

I might have to withdraw the RZ250S question, I forgot about those stupid bloody blue and yellow ones we got with the pommy RD labels on them... I was thinking about our 1988 red and white versions.

You have one I can see that's wrong TWR......

**kro** · 2nd February 2006, 20:16

You are safe with your editing until someone else posts on this TWR

clues? #2 wasn't sure about didn't bother looking to findout, but they do make the hightech toyota engines though

doesn't matter if someone else works the dud ones, whats up there is close enough, i just answer quick & face the music

its a bit of fun to get the swede tickin over

**kro** · 2nd February 2006, 20:28

number 2 is all good

question 6 is a tricky one in some ways

might want to revisit the RZ one too, working on the NZ red/white RZ model, not the blue/yellow ones

**merv** · 2nd February 2006, 20:42

Yeah number 6 looks like a T595 to me so no to the 955. I think the point is they look the same.

As for the RZ I don't remember seeing one with the blue wheels; plenty of the red/white though.

**kro** · 2nd February 2006, 20:50

Em off to bed, but will check in the morning

**T.W.R** · 2nd February 2006, 21:03

lols #6 had something scrubbed off it, either that or its a rough primer job

the RZs if your on about the Red/white model it had red mags and the Blue ones made it here but in small numbers, they were totally blue with yellow & white pin-stripe & may have had white mags.

doesn't matter its all good whats up is up, don't get second chances on most quiz's
