Do you ever see any of your old builds about? Be sad to see one abused, would risk buying that though would have to keep elsewhere I think

Did you modify the frame to hold the oil / go with twin rads etc?

No ran it on a single 125 rad and 125 oil tank with no problems at all.

@scrimsmustang what are the it models like?

[Nottsbiker]

490 air-cooled, no power valve - mental I'd imagine

[declan]

@nottsbiker I do like the shape a lot just not sure if they're a pig

That IT went really well, It had a tuned YZ490J topend on it, having said that a modern 250 YZ would run rings round it. If you like low down grunt and doing wheelies without trying thats the bike for u lol.

Out of loads, I couldnt count them I have only ever seen 2 for sale, both on ebay an Endurance Blue 88 and a White 89 with 88 decals. Helped out with insurance claims on 2 that have been stolen also, one just recently a Blue/White 97.

These 2 where stolen
Blue 97 Black 01

I must be getting old as i now like the original indicators over the naff mini ones which no other road users can see.

Looks like DT ones are the same as early TDR so that will make my search easier.
