    mmmm now you have me paranoid! lol To be completely accurate with my last comment, I have a spool jacket but Mobig pants and they have been ok so far touch wood! I guess I will find out if it persists down on my next trip to the coast! lol

    Rebuilt the motor and got it running yesterday, chur!

    Oh boy, I love me a good reverse cylinder... that is really nice!

    I don't suppose it's derestricted though? I've read that the 3MAs especially are really difficult to fully derestrict because of the need for Sugo pipes and ignition, which are meant to be quite rare/expensive.
    Then there's the reverse cylinder chambers, which although ridiculously cool would be pretty difficult to track down, I guess.
    Next step should be repainting it in Malboro colours. You know you want to!

    We just need Imdying to bring his Lucky Strike and it will be a stroker festival

    cheers... did you see the white one i was riding for a while last year? Ya cant beat that sound!

    I've done a bit of port work, carb, intake flow, derestircted the airbox and the header part of the exhaust, adjusted timing.

    Apparently the mod to std exhaust pipes which is quite a large job can give you up to 8hp so thats my next step. I just wanted to get it going first.

    Yeah... the sugo stuff is meant to be ok, but there are cheaper alternatives that give just as good results. after the exhausts are done i'll replace the ignition... when money allows! I'm looking for 60hp at the wheel, more than that is possible but i don't want to make it a time bomb, i'd like it to be my everyday bike in the summer and do a race or 2 on it every now and then.

    I wont paint it, i really like the blue its quite different! i will hunt down some copies of yamaha 3ma race stickers though.

    What's the exhaust work on the 3MAs? Just gutting them?
    I know you can do it on the RGVs but it just gives a bit more top end.
    I think with a bit of ignition work mine can make 60rw as it has ignition, pipes, carbs and air filter all aftermarket. Just need to find a reliable and cheapish dyno to give me a place to start. Do you know of any such dynos?

    Haven't seen the other 3MA I'm afraid, wish I had though. That looks niiiice.
    Although I prefer the 3MAs to the rest of the series, the nicest TZR I've laid eyes on was a turquoise 3XV turning onto the motorway on my commute. That was a hell of a nice bike, wish I had caught up with the owner for a chat! Probably be worth $$$$$ though, best I refrain from window shopping.
    One of the guys at Hampton Honda has an original MC28 Repsol NSR, that thing is incredible. One of something like 1000 ever produced.

    Well yeah can't wait to hear it in person.
