Had a bit of an 'off'

  1. How not to warm the tyres of a Yamaha TZ350 - YouTube

    Rode the 999R all morning at the wonderful Pau Arnos circuit and all was going well.

    Andy 'Butcherdogs' stuck his go pro on my TZ350 that I had not ridden for 3 years and after a couple of slow sessions I decided to wind the wick up a bit in the final session.

    Anyway at 5 mins in you can see the result. Cold tyres + plonker + a tz350 well in the powerband = lowside.

    Bike isnot too bad mainly cosmetic.

    Be careful out there on those cold tyres!

  8. I can never get over that our TZ350 engine used to blast a Derbyshire outfit and two people from 0-60 as quick as my ZZR1100......and it would wheelspin easily, so theres no shame in a solo flipping someone off.
