Ross and others of the 2-wheel persuasion ,
Well, while we're admiring 2-strokes, I need your learned opinion. A drinking buddy of mine who lives across the road used to circuit race an outfit powered by a TZ750. He still has the donk tucked away in safe storage and often laments over a coldy or 6 the sweet noise it used to make when giving it some berries. I'm trying to convince him to put together a new outfit and run it on the salt, reasoning that his now enlarged proportions (over 120kg) would not be a disadvantage. What do ya reckon?
Cheers, Pete

Carrying a little bit of extra weight can only be a good thing.
Bones also ran TZs in road race outfits at one stage.
this utube link is of Don Vesco breaking through the 300mph mark with a pair of them... some footage of the engine bay and a really cool sound right at the end of the video...

Go back over the road with a six pack, help him drag it out from where ever and get it back on the kitchen table were it belongs.. and start building
Cheers Ross.

Re: BOSS STREAMLINER S/UF 925
Just watched that video 3 times, what a bike and man. Your right Ross what a sound.
The video of King Kenny is worth a look at for TZ750 fans too. Also a bit of footage Kel Carruthers.

A bloke by the name of Brian Mallin(?), used to drag race on of them TZ750 things at Surfers in the mid to late seventies,,,,,,, wailed like a cut cat at WOT
First Australian to ride a motorcycle over 200mph at Bonneville,,,
Re: BOSS STREAMLINER S/UF 925
what power did a TZ750 make ?
Pitmans ran one In a chair @ Roley Park speedway the mid 70s and was a new benchmark
some great clips ---- @ full noise they sound great
Ross ----- get out to your shed -----we all want to hear yours @ full noise ,it will be something

If your mate ever wants to get rid of the 750 I will give it a good home

Re: BOSS STREAMLINER S/UF 925
G'day Bones,
I don't think Stuart is in a hurry to part with his TZ750 engine! And I think it will take a lot of prodding for a frame to be built for the TZ750 - Stuart keeps muttering about engine parts being hard to get, etc.
Cheers, Pete

There's also the 24 Dolmar chainsaw effort though I'm glad it's not me starting it(them).

and watching that brought me to the ultimate in multiple cylinders, the Kawasaki 48 cylinder.

Re: BOSS STREAMLINER S/UF 925
