telstar2105 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hi all New to this site. Just got most of a TZR 125 from my son for the large sum of £100. OK so it is currently in many bits in the back garden but the frame is reasonable and the engine fired up even though it had been sitting for a couple of years. Have lifted the head and freed off the piston rings. Just need some decent weather in sunny Scotland to try and tidy it up. Can't wait to get it together and give it a run. Have spent alot of time reading through the forums and alot has been said about the YPVS system fitted to these bikes, is there any great gain in altering this if the bike is just to be used for commuting? Look forward to speaking to you all soon and when I get a chance will put up some pictures of bike and then keep you all posred about my progress or lack of it dependant on the weather.
