500 Two-Stroke Tech

I've always enjoyed motorcycles, especially fixing them up. I've bought parts of bikes hunted for parts all over to rebuild them and restore them. But this RG thing seems to have broken me. Maybe its the time in my life, the splitting up with the GF, my ongoing preference to fitness. And probably ju...

Thank you but... "Engine Stand" was what I was looking for

Hello,

I've seen engine stands for the RZ5, TZR-3XV etc.

Would not be terribly expensive... No idea what shipping would be like but not ideal obviously.

Sent you PM.

Well maybe we could work together to help us both out? We are relatively close too.
Is it worth asking if you know any places that might have spare bits?
I need a great deal of stuff really, if you want to suggest your spares.

Hello,

I have some spare RHS parts, do you have anything for the LHS?
