Nice tank/seat unit though. Anyone know if they're still available and how much they'd cost?

[Woody]

It's not a Seeley frame

TLR200 frame, maybe RS200 swingarm, XL185 engine and forks. Tank/seat unit could possibly be one of the non-standard RS200 items that can be bought in Japan or as RS says, maybe a Golner one.

Oh yes. I see the TLR frame now. Those forks used look a bit long but I like the mud guards.

How about this one then?

Is that particular bike an RS then or a seely or a TLR? The frame looks wrong for a TLR and my old Seeley (bought in 1983 and sold in 1985 ....doh!) didn't have that air intake coblers going on.

[Woody]

It's an RS200. There are several aftermarket tank/seat combinations available for them in Japan so they don't all look the same.

Motor is basically the same as the Seeley except the Seeley had some tweaks (depends on who you talk to as to how many....) one of which was to over bore it to 66mm which gives 198cc as opposed to the 194cc of the RS200. The air intake hose etc. on the Seeley is there. just hidden by the tank/seat unit.

Re; the TLR 250'S they have coming in, I wonder if they will be 'proper' TLR's or those perimiter framed monoshock things which have a completely different engine too. Looked at one at an autojumble yesterday and the engine is pretty big on those with bits stuck on all over the place.

That would account for the HRC on the petrol tank then!

Thats an RS200TS! these were made for the Belgian/Netherlands trials market in 1980 only 300 ever made as far as i am aware.Rs 200 motor fitted same as the Seeley

[motomike]

The bike in the picture is a RS 200, (or maybe aTL200 ) very similar fames
fitted with an RS 250 tank, it is not a one piece unit ,but a seperate seat base/side panel
