Thanks for the responses.

"No good mate.  That will never run again.  But since I like you, I am prepared to take it off your hands and I won't even charge a disposal fee......"  You know I was thinking the same thing. I can tell you really like me since you won't charge me a disposal fee, so thank you, but for now I am gonna pass on your wonderful offer, but if I change my mind I'll give you a shout.


" Are the cylinders 2VO?" I don't know the designation 2VO.  When I bought the bike I was told the big bore kit consisted of the cylinders re-sleeved to fit 66mm IT 175cc pistons and of course the port work. I have had the top end off for work, Turner had engraved the specifics on the cylinders.

As for 34's being large for a street motor, they provided excellent throttle response, I could roll on the throttle in 3rd and stand it on end.

I am researching my options to see how I will proceed.

New Member with a long overdue project. The last time I rode it was 1986, then it sat, then it was stolen in 2014 then recovered in 2016 and sat till now. I have been collecting odds & ends for it since it was recovered, so I think over the winter I am going to go thru it.

Bike Specs: It's a Tom Turner build with a heavily ported 434cc big bore kit, with I believe either TZ or RZ reeds with 34mm Mikuni's and I assume their his Chambers. I parked it in 86 after I picked up an RZ, but that's another story.

When it was parked it ran beautifully no issues but because of the time it sat the engine will need all new seals to start with, and I should have the crank checked out, so I have been checking around to see who's available and does good work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
