Always wanted a TM75 when I was a kid, but never had the money until I was about 13 & then I was to big so I got a kitted 74 TM125, man that was a whole lot of fun bring in the cows for milking, I don't think the cows milked to well when I was working ;D ;D

My first bike was a brand new TM75 that i raced in the local minibike club. Bought another one a few years ago just for the memories. :)

 :-\ mmm..I wanted one also but by the time I saved up the RM80B was well and truly out so I went with that..THANK GOD! :D not that the TM is a bad thing but it's very pedestrian in comparison to the RM. Now I can die a happy little vegemite as I have both ;D

Yep,  Dad bought me a TM75,  which I raced in the Juniors Class in Christchurch,  NZ.  That would have been in 1975.  There was only 1 TM/TS 90 that raced locally in Christchurch, South Island.  I wonder if this is the one.  (possibly Mark Selby or one of the Selby brothers can comment??)  
If the bike came from Christchurch,  then it mAY have came from Tommy's Suzuki,  either in Manchester Street,  or Moorhouse Ave.  Tommy's sponsered me the following year or so on a YZ 80 (yellow metal tank,  I think B model). 
The 90 is a fantastic score TMBill,  Congratulations.

I'm looking for a TS90 hotup kit pipe if anyone happens to have one. There's a roughy on eBay right now but I want one with minimal dents. I'll swap either my Torque Eng. or Bassani pipes for a clean kit pipe. I'd like a barrel too. I have a kit barrel already but some Gary Treadwell wannabe ported the bejesus out of it for one of those bucket road race thingys making it usless for pit cruising.

This is going back to when these things were new, that's me with the darker hair and my mate Jeff in the other shot. He now races power boats back in NZ

Jeez, Brent. You haven't changed a bit.  ::)

As much as I love 'exotica', (settle down, I didn't say 'erotica') I've always loved all old dirt bikes like TS's and even TF's.

Hey Doc, is that your loungeroom??

Tony, does that mean I still look 14 or that I've always looked 50? ;D

Let's just say you look 50 but act 14.  ;D

And that's not a bad thing.............  ;)

Sounds like all of us really. I may grow old but growing up is optional.
