    Hey guys,

    Does anyone know much about the 90s TY250Z?
    I know its a trials bike that's "road registerable"

    Is it actually road usable though? Around the city mainly, but potentially for a tour including a bunch of offroading lol... (I imagine being a 2T probably not good for a serious amount of riding?)


    Whats the spare parts market like? Assuming it'll be like the ZXR250 and painful

    Cheers!
    Dan

    Well looks like they at least have some of the main spare parts haha

    Maybe not the most comfortable seating arrangements :)
    Luckily I'm short haha

    Friend of mine had one a while ago and definatly not for road use. The gearing is very low (top speed around 70km/h) and the steering will be very "twitchy" at that speed and cramped riding position. Look for a trail bike to do those things.
