That Yamaha at the bottoms lovely.

What is it 96 R6?

mad73

foxeye fzr600 same as a thundercat really same frame engine and lots of other parts , I made the single seat unit and sprayed the bike then the throttle cable snapped so I got the piss with it then swapped it for the trx850 which I sold in jan this year to pay my rent , I have a yzf750 in my garage in bits that I'm gona build up soon as I build my man cave at the bottom of my garden as my garage has no power so hard to work on it, the one I should of kept was the 350lc gutted now , will get another one soon as I can but will get a dt first ,want to get one soon as have no bike to ride at the minute ,,,,,,,,,,

@mad73 yep that makes sense FZR. My mate has the FZ which is why it didn't occure to me. Lovely colour scheme.

Can I ask why the want for a DTR?

Clearly a Yam fan?

What I will say is this.

If you want a dtr. For the money you won't get a lot. Because they are in high demand they command high prices.

It would be well worth paying a little bit extra to get onw owned by a mature owner. The problem with 125's is they are owned by people who don't look after them, their whole life. So can be in bad shape.

mad73

yes def a yam fan had a couple of suzukis gs125 rg125 600 bandit (crap)and had a zx9r ,
the want for a dt , had a dt 50 many moons ago , and I really like the 125 , want to get into some off road riding and a dt seems a good place to start + I like 2 strokes nice and light and as I only really buy Yamaha aint got much more choice and will only go up in value as well
il dig out some more pics of other bikes

mad73

no to bothered on condition of the dt I buy as I will strip it down and rebuild it any way , I like playing with bikes more than riding really , prob as I only have 1 friend whos in to bikes and he don't ride a lot any more either getting a little dangerous out on the roads now prob why I want to get in to off road riding and do some track days as well, thinking of building a track bike out of a fzr400 frame I have sitting around collecting dust

Calum

@mad73 Yeah fair enough.

They do make for good project bikes seeing as you can get them in a sorry state. You can fix them up quite cheaply. And you can make a profit out of it in the end.

cant find any pics of the bandit I had

Calum

@mad73 I noticed one of the images didn't render.

If you find this is the case then manually overide the photo detection feature and insert it yourself with

![alt](www.imagelocation.net)

That will insert the picture for you.

Calum

The FZR looks nice.

I take it you're just bike mad then!
