    Yeah, you must have an eidetic memory, W. That TZ when it was sold was probably the best in NZ....but it went downhill quickly.

    If the present owner of the barrels can find a V twin TZR, there's an F3 bike to fit the current regs. And there are aftermarket pistons available for the 200 which weren't about at the time the barrels were done.

    PS you must go into a lot of sheds too......

    I will suggest it to him, Brian still had the barrels a while back , although the 3XV V Twin goes for silly money if you can find one

    Last i heard Brian was working in Akl....but his son had started junior MX. At the speed he does projects the boy may be old enough to ride it if it ever gets done.

    A mate was looking at building a 400 twin from a (think it was his old B model) TZ back in the day (for Anstey) in a similar fashion, but it never really got past planning stage.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I have a memory of Mark telling me Antspiss had asked him what was involved - and being severely discouraged when he was told how much work it took.
    These two were unusual in that they had the TZ bits, enough money, enough time,the right equipment and motivation...
    The motivation was to show the "diesel tuner" - me - that they could do it and it would work. All I had to do was taunt them occasionally that it would never run....

    24 hours without a new posting. This thread has finally gone off the boil. We'll have to search for it soon after it slips off page 1.

    I blame the lack of Hondas

    Note as in the Aprilia the propensity to wheelie was hard to dial out.

    that happens when TZ goes away for work

    I'm waiting to see what he finds on his travels and what new stuff he has brought

    With the fog problems at Auckland and CHCH grounding so many flights he has not been able to get back.

    On his travels in the south I hear he went looking for a special AR80 Kawasaki Bucket, he wanted to have a look at it, and may be get a few photos of an interesting F4 bike.

    Is that the one on the West Coast in a RS125 chassis?

    Yeah I couldn't finish reading it. What a dickhead that guy is. Anyone talking up his supposed carnal pursuits that much is hiding something.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
