Not so new member
« on: April 08, 2020, 08:37:50 AM »
HI All,

Well I am not exactly a new member but I have not introduced myself and have not been using the forum so it's about time I did !

My username is Ozzysbikes, comes from one of my many adolescent nick names because my family name is Austin and I have been motorcycle crazy since owning and repairing bikes since I was eight years old (more than fifty years) and I have never been more than a couple of months without at least one bike to this day,

I have a Honda CB550 K3, Honda NS400R, Kawasaki ZX6R track bike, Yamaha 350 YPVS F2, Yamaha RD350 A, and a Yamaha Majesty TY200 trials bike.

So hello and regards to all.

Hi

Well I am just rebuilding it ready for sale, I have just completed the 200 conversion, I have made and fitted the extended gear lever shaft bush, new alloy gear lever and a brand new alloy tank from holt works that I am painting yellow with new black Majesty Yamaha decals, you cant see in this picture but I have also fitted Suzuki RL250 forks as the standard TY175 forks are not very good,  it's been a labour of engineering love and I have more invested in it than I will be able to sell it for, I'll do you another picture when the tank is fitted,

Regards Jeff
