Well......after pondering,counting,figuring,selling,buying, talking to my wife several times,calling several other members I came home with the 86 250r that was listed on here 15 minutes from my house.http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/th_P9010053.jpg (http://s388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/?action=view&current=P9010053.jpg) Owner was a super guy to deal with. Everything was as stated. Tri-z looked kinda pissed when it came thru the door of th shop:mad: After unloading it I went to a tip from a friend and came home with this http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/th_P9010055.jpg (http://s388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/?action=view&current=P9010055.jpg) Ya buddy!! Footpeg guards:lock: I also got 8 tires and rims,200x front end, banshee axle and carrier,warrior axle and carrier, shocks, a-arms etc..... The 200 s runs good but smokes like a train and needs rear bearings and brakes. I love the 200x wheel on the front with the peg guards...looks like a ole' hilljack flat tracker. Gonna have to sell some stuff to recoup money though. My wife and I were supposed to get our new bed with this money:(:( I may be sleeping on the R?

Looks like you have finally come to your senses. The Z will now become a garage queen.

Sweet man, you won't regret it. I was iffy when i first got the R because of the $, but it is totally worth it. My X hardly gets used now.

Ive always wanted to see what an r and a z look like side by side. Any chance you can take a pic or 2 of them together?

What kind of rear tires are those on the r?

I wish they made those Kenda front max tires for a 12" rim for the tri-z.
