I got the tz parts back from paint this week (thanks Kim!) and I have applied the graphics to one side of the bike. Installing graphics is a real pain in the arse.

WOW
What a stunner. Please dont pit next to me as my TZ looks like a yard sale compared to yours. Well done

Thanks guys, after I drop it a few times it will look a little more "enjoyed" thus the reason for using vinyl graphics instead of fancy clear coated painted stuff. :shock:

Ukranian Easter egg design


That could be different John maybe you could get Cadbury for a sponsor or something :D !

Some simpletans are feeverishly anti-fur but leather seems ok to their logic.? It's easier to attack rich ladies than bikers . #712

Happy its got a good home ;)
Hope you enjoy the bike.
My son and I kept the Bessy name for the RV: it goes racing 6-7 times / year with my vintage VW Scirocco...
Cheers, and keep the rubber side down !

Hi Fred,

I'm loving the bike! I did 3 race weekends this year with no problems. It has taken a bit of sorting out but I've got it working well now. I had a blast at Mosport with it. Here is a picture of the TZ in the pits at Shannonville:

Glad to hear you're having fun with old Bessy, she's a good old motorhome that will serve you well. How is that cool Scirocco working?
