This week I was informed by a friend of mine that a German Yamaha fan took the trouble in importing one of the very few 2008 Yamaha TZ250 models for this year. I will try to find out some more details on this particular machine as we are all very curious!

Hopefully not the last of the Yamaha TZ Mohicans! During the recent IRTA tests on the Jerez circuit the Indonesian rider Doni Pradita rode this beautiful TZ250

During the 1960's many framebuilders tried to improve on Japanese chassis design by offering complete framesets.

The Yamaha TZ700/750, the"beast" originally has a 64 x 54 bore stroke (694,5 ccm) but already later in 1973 this was changed into 66,4 x 54 mm (747,6 ccm).
