Anyone have an old grogus one sitting around in the back of a shed?
It’s a sickness.

Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
fwiw theres a 71 t250 in the latest bike trader...just says highest offer.
Be the person your dog thinks you are...
There's a memory, my Bro' bought a brand new T125 Stinger back in about '71 and in its day that was a nice bike to ride. The lack of gas mileage was a problem it could not go from Napier to Wairoa on a tank doing only about 50 miles or 80kms on a tank. The noise they made I reckon was priceless - not loud but sweet.

PM Stanko I think he's got one, he's got one of just about anything in that shed of his![]()
I have also been looking for a Stinger for some years now. There has been the odd one on TardeMe but generally so rough that it wouldn't be worth it.
Actually I'd like 2 of them, one to use as a commuter and to tease those hot 250 riders with, and one to turn into a bucket.
Time to ride
Stinger and Wolf...those ones? Sorta horizontal twin....sorta fugly in that special Spuzuki way.They were reserved for my more vemomous rantings against Jap Crap.They were just,just....anti nice.
I can't find any photos of my Bro's Stinger here, I guess they are all back in Napier. I found this pic from my Uni days at Ilam Halls in ChCh and lo and behold a Stinger sits at the end of the row - sorry pic is a bit fuzzy.
Then a shot from the other direction - a few interesting bikes there - but that's what we rode in '73.
My first bike was an A100 - in the next pic and yeah I fussed over the bikes then too - here it is after a clean.
Also found this pic of my Bro's Benelli 180 I mentioned on Str8's "Get a decent bike" thread - priceless!
Sorry not helping you find a Stinger Dave because my Bro' sold his after a few years.
Cheers

I had a T125 Stinger - got it from a neighbour and rebuilt it 100% when I was a teenager in the late 70s. Great little bike. Was in my back yard for ten years until a similar like-minded teenage neighbour took it.
