Hey hey, the mid life crisis arrived today,

A tidy 88 TDR250 pretty much stock (i think). I had a quick blat on it round the village (8-10miles ahem i did mean the OUTside) and its nutts.

Bimble bimble ok thats kind of what you expect from a little stroker lets see what she goes like bit more gas ar her we go six thousaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Its like a switch is turned and its off like the back wheel has caught fire, just as much smoke too. Its got a lot more in it than i remember from my old elsie.

Anyway whan the rain stops i'll get some pics sorted.

Yet more disbelief, that damping adjuster turns with your fingers and the shock has its FULL damping range. Dont forget this thing is 22 years young.
