Wow, nice score!!! Have fun, and I look forward to seeing what you do with it.
Bout time something good happened to you, huh!!
I have some nice tricks awaiting in the bag for it. It will be something alike a Buell-styled street fighter of it, coal black, loud and fun as hell to ride.
Checket it up some now, it's a '87-89, but it has only a academical meaning as it's still 20+ years and with very generous exhaust limits both on emissions and decibel level (allowed to have 100 decibel legally), so I hit the big score bullseye with this chassis. combine this with very, very low insurance costs due to its age (over 20 years old)
That bicycle tire at rear will be wider.... Looks like sh*t now but will be teared apart for fixing up soon with new nice paintjob and so on. and certainly will swap that rear wheel for wider stuff, lets look what Mr Chinaman can offer me to this some kind of very unholy alliance between japan and China. It's a all steel yamaha Deltabox frame so it's very easy to swap engine mounts on that. Very far from Blackie but well, fun in its own ways.

I'm not surprised at your steady refusal to slow down as you heal up and am reminded that you are perhaps the best thing to ever log-on to this site..
Blackie is beautiful..
The world is crazy---- over here we got guys with brand new HD's that gotta ask what air pressure they're supposed to run and you're next to the North Pole building Sweet Sugar Pies outa seal scat,,,, jeeeeze..
A truck exhaust pipe for an "oil Bag",,, gotta love it..
Your spirit dwarfs most "bikers"..
If there is Any Project that has graced the pages of this site that deserves a complete photo shoot for the Magazine it is yours..

Nothing is impossible, frisco, just taking little longer time. And big money ain't any warranty for a nice bike. Even lesser postal order made in China in millions and used by scmucks don't knowing how to use a wrench properly, who's most advanced method to fit parts is by double sided tape.

It's great that you got the deal on the Yamaha, as always we can't wait to see what you build out of it.

Mike, even more good news:
It's still unrestricted in papers so that 120 cc engine goes out of plans very fast. it has a engine effect of 20 kw=27 horsepower in its license documents, so from now on, 250 cc+ goes in it.
That good old TZR will fly hard again as it did as new. maybe even harder now.
So it's technically a heavy motorcycle already now. And it will be a V-twin bike, and that is decided now for good, a V-twin is the most narrow option to use and easiest to mount there, and has the best sound too. can fit in the rear cylinder partly in the frame and there by save some place for the rest och the stuff.
Planning for fuel injection as it's crammed of place under the tank and its very limited of space after the engine takes up place there.
Mr Chinaman can offer a suitable engine too you see...... Lifan 250 cc V-twin, 17 hp stock, and can double or more that in a instant.

My stomach feeling told very true, the now registred owner is an very fishy character so I go thru the guy who gave it to me to get it licensed on me, to disguise that I am the new owner of it. He will be just a courier between me and The recent owner in license. I just want to avoid visits which could mean some stuff will missing after they left...... Better to keep myself anonymous for the recent owner in documents. He will not be able to trace it as I have protected identity.
ripped off some parts for a frame modification on it
Seat off, into the rubbish bin
...Rest off too! Cutting time!
Let me say it straight, this is a former junkie owned bike, and really hard raped such, which is now saved from a safe dead or confiscation by police, and will be saved into the future.
I should put this up as an project, but I presume it will cause a riot if I put it at this block of forum, this is as long it can be from a Harley.
But it's decided that it will be a lowflying speedjunkie trike missile on the road. ready to give countless hours of fun on the roads, No more than 3,5" clearance under the frame and some very much tucked away stuff so nothing will break if hitting ground.

The pressure on the landlord gave results and I will get the lock systems reinforced seriously, and after that they mount that second lock those frickin thiefs have to blow the door to make entry in there. No way in hell I will give those bandits easy job, never done, never will do.

Have researched the land china engines are born, China and got contact on a non EEC-restricted 250 cc Lifan V-twin which is 10-12 hp stronger that the EEC version. some 29-30 hp, which could provide power enough, without own tuning. The only clue is that it's a minimum order of ten engines. But the price is affordable.
In that case both Blackie and The yamafan will get a V-twin.
