im really happy today Very Happy i have new additions to work on

fancied a 2 stroke again . i have been in the market for one for a while .

today i ended up buying two

nsr 125 2000 model . 10k miles on the clock

tzr ypvs 24k on the clock

both had been standing for years . i have not even touched them with a rag yet let alone a spanner . but i cant wait to get crackin

had the fairings off and mooched about everything seems in good order . left them draining at the moment

next few weeks i will be restoring them both inside and out . im thinking keep the tzr and sell the nsr ?

Nice bikes.

Personally I prefer the TZR, as it looks like a bigger bike although they are both very nice. Cool

it has to be the tzr . everything about that lil bike makes me smile . the nsr has its good points but not enough to change my decision . the entire front end on the tzr is better . the brakes are better the fixings are better .
its just generally better quality and the first engine i ever pulled apart when i was a kid was one of these engines . it even has my initials in one of the serials . i love it
having trouble getting to sleep i want to go and get the spanners out rite now and start stripping them down

new toys!!!

*edit* i did

Granville cylinder black is great for doing exhausts and gives a nice satin finish.

It lasts a lot better than the Aerosol VHT paints I have tried, and it looks better.

Very nice, loving the TZR! There is one just like that parked up that I see on my way to work every morning - very nice and very quick for a 125.
