Bill is that Terry Meeks ex bike          How many bikes can you fit on the transporter

[TM BILL]

I dont know the history of the bike stu , it is the RM 400 that Brad lackey rode on his recent visits here.
I traded a couple of other RMs for it with a mate in Auckland 
At a push i can get 10 bikes on the slide deck

Very nice Bill.

Now his older brothers turned up looking for him

Is that the famous "poohskin hunter" 'That Guy' in the gateway TMB? I can see why you would need his services. The two 'brothers' scrub up top notch for a day out Bill.

I love the old metal tank RMs; they fill me with a sense of nostalgia.
That was the era I discovered dirt bikes and the RMs were the weapon of choice for Peter Boyle at Tivoli and Roger D in the magazines!
I had the glossy brochures for the 125/250/370 for years and I can't imagine why I ever threw them out - along with a huge factory poster of Gaston Rahier (and his Heckel boots).

Thanks for posting Bill, have you raced it?

[TM BILL]

DJ yes that was That Guy in the drive he caught me taking pics of the girl  obviously he rubbished the operation and called me a " Gay Suzuki riding Homo " produced too cans of diet coke and took my Mudbug round the block at full noise to piss off the Neighbours 

Thanks Wombat I to really like the early RMs they capture a time when life was simpler and racers were racers 

I haven't raced this one but i have raced my A model witch was very original and now lives at a mates place hence the 400 aquisition 

We dont run a pre 78 class in NZ and i find the 400 way more competitive in pre 81 ( just the rider lets it down )
Im building up a 250 B that will hopefully look like the 370 .

Be keen to see some pics of the rabid guard dogs that should roam around the yard

The Legendary Sam finishing off the last wayward individual that swam the croc infested moat , scaled the 30' electric fence , tiptoed through the mine field , and past the last poohskin trap " a Family pack of KFC and a dozen DB to breach the perimeter  at least he died with indigestion.
