xtzoutback Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I've just bought my first container of bikes from Japan, the ones in the vid are a competition version of the TLM220R, basically the same without the lights etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caddabs Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 No idea on the Honda, but what an awesome trial park! would love a ride round there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
for artie Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) BTW: I was told that many of the Honda parts....lights and things... actually are made in Thailand. Anyone care to comment? Honda has factories in about 27 different countries. Did you think everything was still made in Japan?

xtzoutback Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 What kind of bikes, from Japan? All older trials models 8 x TLR200 6 x TLM220 1 x TL125 (like the TLR200 not the older style TL125 from the 70's) 1 x TLM50 1 x TLM200 1 x RTL250S 2 x TLR250R All the four strokes with the exception of the TL125 are sold as is one of the TLM220's. I'll be parting out a couple of the 220's and maybe the 200. TLM50 is for another project like these on this link. http://picasaweb.google.com/106738124973524867532/TLM50Rebuild?authkey=Gv1sRgCNCHkKXClILBpgE# It's a brilliant little bike ridden by my son just turned twelve in the latest pics at the end.
