I know it's not a 400, but just in case anyone fancies a project:

It's not mine and I don't know who it belongs to, just thought someone might like it.

If I was allowed I'd have it myself. Might just go and have a look while the mrs is at work. :whistle:

I spotted that on Gumtree the other day, although it sounds a bit of a wreck from his description.
I reckon if you could get it for a couple of hundred quid it could make a decent little project...

I have been chasing one for a while now.

There is one up my way that seems to be up for sale every couple of months, as it has a running problem that no one seems to be able to remedy. In saying that, it does seem to be 16-17 year olds who end up buying the bike, fiddling with it for a while and then selling it again when they have run out of ideas.

I have phoned 3 different sellers about it now, but I always seem to miss out as it has already been sold by the time I contact the seller.

I've emailed the seller, but not had a response yet.

He's probably trying to hit a ton on the Beccles bypass. :lol:

Just me or on the vid was he changing up way too early? No where near the red line which presumably is where all the power is on a stroker.

Loved my old TZR125. Might get another one day apart from the fact i now have wife and kids and dont fancy an early death.

Bigger tyres on my mountain bike!
