Uitenhage Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 When I started my racing career in 1986, I started with a 1984 TZ 250 L frame we converted to a Suzuki by transplanting it's heart with a 1986 RM 250 single. The engine remained standard except for the RM 80 ignition and hand made exhaust chamber. It made for a very tractable motor. The bike was dribbled with other nice things like Marvic 16" magnesium wheels for the (then) generation slicks, loads of titanium and magnesium bits. The result was a bike that was very capably on the shorter , car park, street and go kart regional circuits we raced on half of the time in the super mono championship in the '80's and '90's. On the longer circuits, the bike did loose out a bit over the big bore 4 stroke singles. 3 Quote
