Patchelicious Posted December 25, 2017 Posted December 25, 2017 My pride and joy is finally running again! It’s in CPT though. Will post some screamer videos the moment I get my hands on her again. Been more than 10 years since I last rode this bike. https://instagram.com/p/BdHw4kLhScJ/
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 25, 2017 Posted December 25, 2017 Love it love it love it!
IceCreamMan Posted December 25, 2017 Posted December 25, 2017 Nice. Are those the one with rgv motors?
Patchelicious Posted December 25, 2017 Posted December 25, 2017 Nice. Are those the one with rgv motors?Yes, Stretch from Eurobike had to use a few RGV parts as not all original parts could be sourced. My motor got stolen many years back, and my folks did this secret restoration as a surprise for me for Xmas and my Birthday next week. Took 10months.

Patchelicious Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Took her for her first ride now! Holy crap I missed this! https://instagram.com/p/Bd-fXUBBiuJ/ https://instagram.com/p/Bd-f_Mqhkc2/ https://instagram.com/p/Bd-fqMAB0kL/
cfcjim Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 You lucky fellow (not the first noun I used, but apparently it's a family friendly site and jealousy is an ugly emotion...). Many many happy kilometers (rrrring ding ding; rrrring ding ding ding).

Holy crap I missed this! https://instagram.com/p/Bd-fXUBBiuJ/ https://instagram.com/p/Bd-f_Mqhkc2/ https://instagram.com/p/Bd-fqMAB0kL/ I have always wanted one of those, just missed out on one last year. Bought a RS125, just sold it though. Done with Italian 2 strokes. Too temperamental, fix one thing just for the next problem. They are absolutely amazing once they are perfect, just saw it a money hole so cut my losses.
Wannabe Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 You lucky Fish.Enjoy riding that stroker, amazing little bikes they are.
GrahamS2 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Took her for her first ride now! Holy crap I missed this! That is just lovely! A mate of mine, who collects bikes, has 2 original, running 250 SA GP bikes on display in his office. But I've yet to convince him to let me take one for a joy ride

But I've yet to convince him to let me take one for a joy ride TZ's NS's? I assume its the early 90s ones that Dreyer and those guys rode?
GrahamS2 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 TZ's NS's? I assume its the early 90s ones that Dreyer and those guys rode? I shall answer with details and (hopefully) pictures shortly
GrahamS2 Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 I shall answer with details and (hopefully) pictures shortlyThat took a little longer than expected. One bike is a '84-87 NSR250, ex Robbie Peterson works bike. Other is a Yammie 250, also from the Peterson brothers. They also have a Jody Schekter Yammie 350 which was raced in the late 70's. Pics will follow at some stage.

The NSR has full paperwork from the team, including laptime sheets, suspension set ups, etc. They've got the back ground on the Yammie, but no paperwork. They're becoming quite collectible and valuable of late, not that it matters because these guys don't ever sell bikes. Their collection is
