Bought another stroker

#1 PostAuthor: Is Vic There » Sat Jun 03, 2017 8:12 pm

And this one was only 10 minutes from the house and not on the other side of the World or in bloody WA :D

I paid $5,000 AUS for it, been fully rebuilt with receipts for a new crank.

Sometimes you have a win!

Very nice, I had a red Kenny Roberts replica one, though mine had been painted by Dream Machine

Oooh, that's nice! I'm in the middle of negotiations for an F2 that's in bits, but everything that could be powder coated has been (that's what the seller does for a living), the motor has just been rebuilt and it has stacks of new parts. I'm just awaiting for him to decide on a price....

I've put a deposit on a RZV500R and a 350LC, so that might be it on the two stroke front, ran out of room!

The Z1100R :D followed by the Harris Magnum 5, then the little RS250.

I'd love a big barge Spondon with a GSXR engine in it, but that's as rare as a cold day down here :D
