Owned a NS400, sounded crap bit likea duck farting, anti dive forks siezed, tankslapped far too many times and wasnt that quick.

Blue and yellow TZR250 1KT - great fun

Here is my current RGV, it's a bit of a rarity being the VJ23 jap only model, 70 degree V twin, elec start, dray clutch, fully adj suspention and shown with a rather suspect pillion seat (now removed). but its full power and while still only doing around 125 flat out its got some midrange and the power kicks at 7 and 9k and sounds rather sexy if strokers get you going


And here are a couple of my other babys, show is one of my NC30's (the used one - other is a restored ornament in the house same colours) and my RC30. Er the RC is a dream bike for me, nothing comes even close to the feeling i get riding this baby.


Nice bikes Paul-but where are the mini bikes?, looks a hell of a garden too-you live in a stately home by any chance??
Nice little Lambretta as well Cy
Most of the strokers I have owned were old brits, loads of Bantams-got a D10 in the back garden waiting rebuild now-James, Francis Barnets, Arial Arrow etc etc. I have the TZ250D still as most know-it's my avatar-and I had a Suzuki TS125T which I bought brand new in 1972-it's the only other Japanese bike I've ever owned, I have ridden loads of others though.
