Nice work thus far, but isn't your TZR a naked bike from factory? Looks a lot better without the fairing imho, like this: https://www.geocities.jp/k2_tec04/shohin1/tzr125.jpg ____________________ R.I.P. Tareree Shiimi, 1985-2008

no m8 there are scratches on parts of 1 side of the bike due to a crash so i think he just binned the frunt fairing and bought some brackets.

do you know wot type of exhaust that was ?

some up date pics on the TZR Frame sprayed. https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Image0015.jpg https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Image0018.jpg https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Image0029.jpg New forks https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Picture055.jpg https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Picture056.jpg https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Picture054.jpg Painted wheels https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/Picture059.jpg https://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww107/THEHOGBUCKET/tazzer%20pics/Picture018.jpg up to now the build was going slowly but smoothly had a problem with the indicators not working but it was a rusty earth wire in the switch. The brake caliper needs a bracket to fit on as the forks are from a Yamaha RD which makes the caliper clash with the disk. But i hope to have that sour ted soon.

thanks mate the colours are not every ones cup of tea but it looks beter than it was so it's something lol.

As far as i know the engine from the TZR is the same as the engine in the DTR 125 but i am not sure about the standard DT model.

I am re jetting for the new exhaust and a high flow air filter not sure which yet most likely a K&N and i am going to make a custome box to fit the filter in with a feed to the side of the bike for maximum air intake and flow and it will decrease the amount of crap that gets in.
