Recently acquired TZ250 4tw. Have been keeping an eye out for one of these for years. Just happened that all the stars aligned, and its now mine Apparently there's some history to this bike but I need to look into it all before I believe what I'm told.....anyway a proper inspection and some track time are in order
I had one of those - best overall bike ive ever had.....used to wear out foot pegs regularly on it (learnt to wheelie on it, properly)....depending on what you get those front pipes have got a load of sound proof wadding welded into them, cut'em apart, rip the wadding out and it'll sound like a motorcross bike...lovely, couple with a set of dp cans and rejet and its good for 135. I lobbed it down the road a couple of times hence the patchwork panelling...did the tzr250 wheel conversion after the rear wheel caved in from a tussle with a 928s2....ah those were the days...
This is for sale, £2000 in 'for sale' section. Sorry if im thread stealing, but im like that, :Mooning:
I was tempted by this TDR but one is enough. Pete Fishwick - Mobile Uploads | Facebook TDR250.CO.UK • Login
it doesn't mater which bike is the best , which is the prettiest but the op was about investing , so which bikes are iconic ? which bikes will rise in value ? what to buy towards pension? if you bought an investment would you be better removing wheels etc and storing in a crate, dry bags, sprayed with wd40 etc ?
That Tdr is nice...however I gotta say the thing that makes the TDR is the crossover pipes....that ones nice but needs the original headers/front sections and a set of aftermarket rears....
I like my 2 strokes. For me, the last of production 2008 KX 250. Honda RS 250 NX5 are somewhat rare and make around £8'000 when they pop up on eBay. Aprilia RS 250 is a sure winner but I'd go for the dry clutch NSR 250 MC21 SE or SP as they were limited run.
