The Flying Scot Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Well I have finally got round to starting rebuilding my TZR, not bad progress for the first day.
Moderator Airhead Posted August 19, 2012 Moderator Posted August 19, 2012 looks in great shape for the chassis, so did you rattle can it?
The Flying Scot Posted August 20, 2012 Author Posted August 20, 2012 Yes, rattle can all the way. It was in good shape before I started. Do you know anyone that does good replica decals by any chance?
Moderator Airhead Posted August 20, 2012 Moderator Posted August 20, 2012 theres a place in Derbyshire that repro decals though for the life of me I cant remember the name
The Flying Scot Posted August 20, 2012 Author Posted August 20, 2012 Cheers DirtyDT I have been watching these on eBay but wasn't sure what the quality would be like. Also not sure what colour to go for. The bike was originally black so might return her back to original. Any thoughts.
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 20, 2012 Moderator Posted August 20, 2012 Original is always good. It helps keep it's value and 2 strokers are always in demand. I don't know about the quality Just keep away from "Monster Energy" go faster stickers
The Flying Scot Posted August 20, 2012 Author Posted August 20, 2012 Don't suppose you would know what the original yammy black colour code was?
Moderator mervin Posted August 21, 2012 Moderator Posted August 21, 2012 the image works Ilkeston comes highly recommended by a lot of painters , the ebay graphics maybe ok , but if they fade or crinkle when they are lacquered over you have a big headache on your hands , image works are tried and tested by people i know , and they would soon let the world know if the decals where crap http://www.bike-stickers.com/homepage.htm
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 22, 2012 Moderator Posted August 22, 2012 Don't suppose you would know what the original yammy black colour code was? No, sorry. Try looking at: http://www.rsbikepai...-gb/colours.php http://www.colorrite.com
The Flying Scot Posted August 27, 2012 Author Posted August 27, 2012 Well getting another step closer to getting it back on the road. Side pannels sprayed, all electrics working. Just got to finish the spraying and fit the decals which should be here this week. At the minute my lad has got the engine for this bike in his TZR. So he will be grounded this weekend as I am claiming it back. If anyone knows someone who has got a good quality barrel for a 2RH engine going spare let me know as I need one for the lads bike.
dt502001 Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 Just a quick question doesn`t anyone rebuild cylinders over there cause we have lots of places that do it here.for around 200 bucks and personaly I find re worked barrels are heat stressed and tend to run better longer The bike looks nice so far looking foward to the finished bike posted
The Flying Scot Posted August 28, 2012 Author Posted August 28, 2012 There are several companies over here that will either re-line a barrel or re-bore one.
The Flying Scot Posted August 28, 2012 Author Posted August 28, 2012 Just wondering if anyone knows if parts from a 2RJ will fit a 2 RH/RK ie brake calipers, chain guards, foot peg hangers etc
