January/February
2002
Hello Everyone !! Due to my extended winter vacation and broken collarbone the January and February Bikes of the Month have become one, and what a great one it is !! |
Most of you may remember Frank Toby Chi with his other spectacular NSR250R SE that was featured on my Website as August 2001 Bike of the Month. |
Well......Frank is back at it again with an all new NSR. This new bike is a 1995 NSR250R SP model. The original bodywork was retained for the future if Frank ever decides to sell this machine. |
The bodywork is supplied from Tyga Performance and consists of the Tyga Eyes upper cowl which uses NSR150SP headlights, lowers, Tyga Tail seat with the brake light kit and the GP style front fender. Frank had custom brackets built to fit the bodywork. A keyless fuel tank cap from Red Racing saves weight and gives the bike a racer look. Tech tip from Frank : You will need to drill a small hole into it to avoid fuel line/tank vacuum which causes the bike to stall after 15 miles of running. Click here to see a detailed picture of the pin hole. |
TSR also came to the rescue again with these incredible rear sets. They were a breeze to install and have attracted lots of attention from Franks riding friends when he takes the NSR out. |

Every month I try to feature a different NSR in this section. Above you can check out the featured Bike of the Month and past Bikes of the Month. Do you think your NSR belongs here ? Then send a few pictures and some information and maybe we can feature it here. Mail me here. Cheers !! |
