The frame is actually silver.I messed around a bit with this pic. Loving that Kr1.Mmm.
Mine in better days... Was a prizewinner in its time, now frankly a bit ratty after a loss of interest and one winter too many.

It's SORN'd and under a sheet in the garage now, but hopefully it'll come back out. Still got a set of Busa pistons and a more recent set of GSXR forks in the garage, and a Dymag rear to match the front... Some day.

looking for a MZ 250 ts
How does a Jawa/MZ250 special sound to you?
I'm looking to sell it. Basically Jawa twin frame, MZ250 engine, homemade swingarm with twin hagon shocks run cantilver, Suzuki GT550 forks, GSX250 wheels, Dunstall cafe racer bodykit, BMW R90 fairing...

How are you finding the Tuono, I am thinking of swapping my Street Triple for one early next year.
Like the idea of more power and similar weight ?
Do you have all the fancy electronics on yours ?
Tuono's are great bikes... However... very 'Italian'... it's a lottery each morning you press the button. They're quick, powerful and nice though.
Here's mine when it still had knobblies on after green-laning last winter.

My Africa Twin, swapped for with a TL1000S 2 years ago for a change – kinda breathless / gutless, but all day riding position (esp. with the re-filled saddle) & off-road abilty make up for it. Hardly seen a road this year, but a brilliant bike for touring..

Sold this XTZ660 couple of months ago and it ran sweet as a nut. Regretting it now the weather's turning.
Forgot to mention the RGV was the last bike I had. This is my full bike history:
My first bike when I was 9yr old Yamaha ty 80
[IMG]
[/IMG]
Outgrew it and got this, a montessa Cota 242
[IMG]
[/IMG]
Very unreliable so I saved up and got a Yamaha ty250 monoshock
[IMG]
[/IMG]
When I turned 16 I sold the yam and bought my first road bike, a Suzuki ts50x. Big bore kit on it so it was good for 55mph.
[IMG]
[/IMG]
Traded it in at 17 to buy a Yamaha TZR 125. Deristricted to could just about manage a ton.

Passed my test and got my RGV that I posted earlier.

Me, about 10 years ago. Rotax 640 in a 1991 tz250 chassis, donnington park, redgate.

same bike, cadwell park mountain
I'm bikless now as of last month 🙁 my license was to precious unfortunately and I have no self control... well I do have self control but I own bikes to have fun, and I can only have fun one way.
My first bike
2nd bike
3rd bike
and probably my last bike, for now at least.
None of mine in a fit state for the camera.
My '96 blade is under a half inch film of filth and still bearing the scars from hitting a deer.
My '07 YZ250 has yet to be glammed up with a new sticker set. It wheelied off without me on my first excursion, far too powerful. Or to put it another way - perfect!
Just bought a little GPz 500 to rat into work on to save the blade from winter, and it'll never be pretty!

It is just sooo pretty (and ace to ride!)
Nothing knee trembling here, but it's inability to go more than about 100mph before the wind makes hanging on difficult, suits me fine!
I just dont understand big naked bikes/hypermotards, surely once you've got to 60 in 2.something seconds you're then left hanging on while the wind tries to pull you off!
Look like a lot of fun though!
Not quite a motorbike but it has an S&S engine in it. New Morgan 3 wheeler, Father in law came round in it and took my eldest out for a spin (clearly he loved it!) Its frickin'ace and really loud.

Nah, that's not till 90.
Right roads and the SM is the best machine money can buy. Gravely B roads, roads with crappy surfaces etc etc...
Mmmmmmm bantam, I'd need to lose a lot of weight for one of those to make sense though!

I only use it for loafing round lanes in Kerry, day I bought it - first "old" bike - rode it through Wandsworth one way system and down the a3 - that was interesting. C90's are a real laugh though
95 urban tiger since new cant part with it although people have offered huge sums of money for it, all original apart from tyres and 22000 miles on the clock, maybe gets taken out twice a year (pic not mine as not at home), also got 98 XR600 which i cant part with either O and a 1990 TY250 pinkie which is also with me for life, had loads since but nothing I want to hold onto.

Cheers M 😳 ... what did I do wrong?
You need the direct link to the image file (as you had in your last post), but then to enclose it in image tags:
- remove the spaces from the above and it should work.
Pic after a good clean forks are now 14mm thru yokes but looks pretty much the same 98 tl1000r modifications are r1 forks and brakes, powder coated frame and swingarm, k7 gsxr tail on a custom subframe, bitubo shock, scorpion tagma carbon cans, gipro atre, charging mod, airbox mod with k&n filter, did chain and sprockets, manual fan switch, double bubble screen and the all important crash bobbins 😉
Many thanks M.
On the way to Barcelona from Edinburgh. It was the "Busa" drivers 60th and we had both just been made redundant a month earlier. His birthday was attended by the boss of the company, employees and soon to be redundant employees... Interesting weekend that one!
We tried to find DougBasqueMTB off here at the Spanish/French border but failed.
I need 6k miles to get my ZZR11 pask 100k... next year... Its done everything from London courier, Nurburgring to intercontinental express. Its a very faithful friend.
I'm hankering after a ZZR14....
