Hi,
Thought I'd say hi as I've just registered although I have been looking in on the site for a couple of years. I'm Dusty, a 46 year old Firefighter living just outside London. Always been into my strokers, but have had some diesels, currently a Gsx1100Efe dinosaur ! I like building specials based around Yams, here are a few from the past;

And for when the garage time is up;

Regards

Dusty

Love those air-cooled RD's - some very nice mods to some of those. Still have a soft spot for the X7's too.

Thanks for sharing.

+1 agree Aaron.
I'm a sucker for white wheels, and they look great.
Food for thought.
Thanks.

Also noticed the 350 & Powervalve stickers on the 2MA TZR, did you install a PV motor into that?

Hi
The tyres on the Lc hybrid are Metzeler ME22 front and a Pirelli MT75 rear. I already had a low miles front tyre when I started the build but couldn't get a matching rear, so my tyre dealer sourced the MT75 as the next best option. Would have gone for BT45's if I was buying both of them new though.
The Tzr did indeed have a 1UA valve engine fitted, with Swarbrick pipes and a standard Tzr airbox. I swapped the Tzr for the standard Lc2 which I have just realised I didn't include in the pics, so here she is;
