Totally agree mate, i think ive had more fun on the smaller bikes ive owned, not saying big bikes aren’t great but these modern superbikes are abit pointless on the roads, especially in the uk
Hi So started ordering bits for the bike, is the belts for the 02 these? Thanks Also ordering.. ngk iridium Dcr9eix plugs K&n oil filter Motul 300v 15w50 Pipercross air filters Mahle fuel filter with seal anything else, maybe tensioner nuts? Just making a list to order. Got her stripped, its not too bad considering its virtually sat since 2013, and then outside since 2020 bloody poor thing.
Welcome dude love the bikes and the little rs 250 are sublime Thanks mate, yea cracking little bikes, and rare now, great seeing so many 2stroke enthusiasts. My dad used to race in the 70s and is currently restoring 2 tz350s bloody unbelievable them things, absolutely mint, he’s going through them properly. Me revving the tz
Welcome Mate , excellent, nothing like a 2 stroke, the little Aprilia is gorgeous and nice to have in the garage, good on your dad for doing some restoration on that lovely TZ, beautiful things, I like the odd 2 stroke myself
Ref the plugs, personally if they aren't OE fitment I'd just run standard plugs. I've seen so many threads over the years of iridium plugs not providing as smooth idle or issues with lack of smoothness off idle that I would just run standard good quality NGK's. I would use Iridium if standard fit (like newer panigale's) or if I was doing prolonged track work. Just my opinion and mine only!
