Im 90% sure that one my tanks (factory tri) . Another very rare piece.
and is anyone on here thinking that could be my pipe (FT) too?.
speed kills
I thought it was...But also looks a lot like a couple others of that era..Answer,or Coffmans? Funny how the years cloud us isn't it !!!???..... Just a really cool time capsule Somewhere on here,,Xowner I think?? Did a side by side comparison of Tri Z pipes many years back. I am pretty sure no one had a FT pipe to show I am Sure that is your tank.Jmho..

I agree find of the year.I think this is as great of a find as the 82 360 Mugen that The dirtfactory for couple years ago.I cant wait to see it racing .
250r rules
So I am going to go out on a limb here. Factory Tri Cylinder, 90% confidence interval that its an FT tank. With only 50 being made (said from the man himself) this bike was the product of the following....
A: A die-hard yamaha racer that wanted to be as cool as team yamaha and had deep pockets
B: Collector
C: Potential to be an old team Yamaha racer (long shot I know, but I typically have delusions of grandeur, just ask Bryan)
Regardless, how the hell this ended up with a flea market salesman in BFE Troy Missouri is beyond me. Then to have only paid $600.00. Um, Bryan, go buy a lottery ticket buddy.
Craigslist of the year?, Nay, DECADE!
Judging from the condition. I think you can rule out B,and IMHO...C... But it IS one of the nastiest Triz's seen anywhere for a LONG,long time !!

It would be nice if there was a sub-forum for bikes like this . I don't think it fits the custom build showcase maybe a old race bike showcase . Its to cool of a bike to get lost in trikesylvania over time.
100% agree with this!! "Vintage Racer Showcase" something along those lines. Id be in there drooling alllll the time!
I tried to not look at this thread for a while because I was too freakin jealous lol
But MAN,,,, am I JEALOUS!!!!
I thought I scored when I got one of our local racer rolling CHASSIS for cheap,, you paid $100 more and got a full blow BUILT bike! Lucky dog!!
Any updates on her just yet?
too many bikes to count. too little time on hand.
Unfortunately nothing to report thus far. Between family, vacation, and work, I haven't had time to do anything to it, but hose it off and push it in the corner of the garage. My buddy Oile did come through with a couple of hard to find parts for it and I can't thank him enough.

Raffa has several sweet Z's. I doubt he's jealous of mine.
