Re: Modern day TDR250
You'll just have to make your own.
I look forward to the build thread... without any pictures on it.

Re: Modern day TDR250
It might already exist, I may have just changed direction on what I was doing with my YPVS a bit, as I think with decent suspension it would do the job very nicely.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 3:15 pm You'll just have to make your own.

Re: Modern day TDR250
As I mentioned before, what you want is a Nuda.
Good luck finding one for sale.

Re: Modern day TDR250
Ok, you're going to laugh your tits off, but what about an early 650 Versys. Plenty of tuning bits to make it SuperTwin spec, spend some money on the suspension, job jobbed!

He's on his second one, he wrote the first one off in a big way, he's also written off at least 4 CBR600s, we were chatting about him on Saturday, and someone I know who has the nickname Dangerous Brian (with good reason) considers him the most dangerous rider he's ever known.

Re: Modern day TDR250
I still think you'd find them too big, powerful and heavy anyway. You may as well get a 990SD if that's the case.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 3:30 pmHe's on his second one, he wrote the first one off in a big way, he's also written off at least 4 CBR600s, we were chatting about him on Saturday, and someone I know who has the nickname Dangerous Brian (with good reason) considers him the most dangerous rider he's ever known.

It has been considered, but I can hardly say yes to a Versys when I called a KTM ugly.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 3:30 pm Ok, you're going to laugh your tits off, but what about an early 650 Versys.

So would I, and with a little bit of effort they can look quite nice - I should get round to test riding one.weeksy wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 3:36 pmI'd rather go MT07/XSR700
