Let me know if you know the owner or of one similar for sale.
Will also consider frame/swinging arm package or roller.

No modifications, needs to be in near original condition and in good order.

I came so close to buying one,
I think she would have killed me,
I settled for a 350 a wiser choice.

didn't king Kenny himself say those tz750's oval circuit jiggers were way to fast and got them banned back in the day when they ruled the tar tracks

There is footage of that race that KR pipped the HD wrecking crew on the line on youtube somewhere. He hugs the hay bails all the way "wall of death" like and winds it up to take the win on the line. Watch it right to the end because the sound of the beast as he pops a victory wheely for the crowd is just plain awesome!

I saw Hortons TZ at Dan Rouitts annual open house when it was owned by Mark Seifried and it's a much neater bike than Kenny's version that was also on show. Many years ago I saw Randy Mammola doing demo laps on Kenny's TZ at the old Ascot track and he (and the bike) was amazing. I'll never forget the sound resonating around the place.

Trevor mentioned above phoned me today,
He has several Champions and an ex Jeff Lawrence/ Kevin Fraser ASTRO
I worked with Jeff at Frasers and he had 2 of them, he called in to see me 15 minutes after Trevor rang
One bike went south to Uncle Kevin
One bike went north to Billy Mac
