I ended up swapping some leftover TZ project parts for this '75 RD350 PA barn find. It shows 4800 miles, and still on the original bore. I'll do an inventory and see about getting it back on the road.

If anyone has the seat trim strip for a 250/350 I'm looking for one.

Haus of Projects / The Last Project -Finished
September 09, 2022, 08:09:58 PM
Here it is, a C&J framed TZ750. I won't need to build anything else after this. A pal of mine had this and realized he would never get around to building it. He has plenty of other things going on. He offered it to me so, why not? I have built and raced a 750 in the past so it is fairly familiar.
The project did come with all the big parts to build it; gas tank, seat, front fender, lots of pipes and pieces but a lot of it needs repair work. The engine is already built and ready to go. The bike is a project and needs most everything figured out. First up is decide what forks to use, then what brakes, then axles, spacers etc to make a roller.
I have a set of 40mm Forcella forks with Spondon triples, and a 36mm TX750 front end which looks a lot like the original TZ forks after some clean up of the triple clamps. The TX forks would use stock Yamaha RD/TZ type calipers that I have.
I also have a pair of stock TZ wire wheels with the bike.

I need new pads for this little Brembo. Any ideas what it is off of or the model of it?

Thanks
