Finally Thrown some paint at the frong guard & fairing.

At some point I'll do something to the tank & seat. (those white dots are water droplets BTW)

The front wheel came up well. All the old paint was removed using Acrylic thinners, stiff brush & rags.

Looks good Jools.

Nice, i like it !

[peterbike]

 I like it too Jools.  Is that your design ?   

[jools]

Thanks guys

Peter....
No not my design, its copied from the TZ250's of the old Sonauto Yamaha outfit back in the day, not 100% as they have the number board on the fairing.

I had the paint & decals left over from my Sarron replica Gauloise TZ750.

Its up for sale soon......................but located in Oz 

I need to do a track day to finish off the set up....................then I probably won't want to sell it 

[saltysealion]

Don't sell it Jools!


I am rebuilding mine and we live close to each other, lets go for a ride and grab a coffee. Pose and all sorts of cool things..

[Toop]

Agree

That would be nice if it wasn't a Period 6 race bike on slicks.......... and it was registered.........................

[James P]

Yes, don't sell it Jools! That could be a nice eye-catching road bike. Is there any reason all the necessary road bits couldn't be refitted?

I'm also hoping you'll be making your "other" TZ750 into a road bike with another period race-replica paint scheme .

It was always a race bike in Oz - a Jap import I believe without any compliance plate.

To equip it for road use would be impractical and costly....................but I believe it may be possible to register it if I were that way inclined.

Hmm, that's too bad Jools    - it certainly would be costly if you didn't have all or most of the road gear already. I wonder how difficult it would be to have the bike retrospectively approved - pre-1989 JDM bikes are imported easily enough and don't need compliance plates, so it would hopefully be as easy as getting a compliance report and proving ownership.

No daylight MOT's in Oz I fear 

[peterbike]

Hehe, no daylight mot's here in oz unfortunately       & if that bike never had an import approval, then the only way to register it would be to grab a local frame with compliance & do a frame swap .
Although it would be eligible for historic rego.
