New member, have loved strokers for years, currently working on a 99 Cup hybrid, putting a 443 in it. Been lurking on this site for quite a while.

Hi, If you are in Charleston, you might come across my old friend John Glimmerveen. He's doing vintage trials on a TY175 now but he knows his way around the twins, because he was a race mechanic in the TZ era. He is on facebook under the name of Classic Motorcycles- and he's a judo black belt and Sensei too. Cheers and welcome, Dave

Unfortunately, I don’t get a ton of time to work on the project. I currently work in Kabul as a contractor. I work three months in Kabul, then one month in the states.
this project has been with me for a while, I bought the bike, rode it, took the engine out, as I had an RZ350, sent the cylinders to Scott Clough to work his magic, was making progress....... until I was hit on my Buell by an SUV. Sidelined me for quite a while. And, of course work etc.
Just sent the engine to be built in late December. Hopefully can get it back in when I go on my next real.
May have a few pics, will see if I can dig some up!

Roger did a RS build with a 443. Videos on YouTube. I think he did it with Athena cylinders.

PDX, do you have a TDR?

Yes, indeed. I've had my TDR250 since 1998.
