Not literally as it would have really hurt , and it would mean i was extremely blind.
I sold my TDR 250 a few months ago.
I found this close by a few days ago and it was an opportunity not to be missed. Totally complete and it's operational with a 2017 miles on the clock and even has the original tyres on.
What do you think?

God knows why the images have turned out sideways. They come up correct elsewhere but you get the idea.

Nice!

My understanding on the photo rotating is that phone cameras code the orientation the phone is held when photos are taken so that when viewing the photo on your phone it shows right side up on the phone. That coding doesn't talk to the forum software so it shows the photo in the "raw" orientation... my guess is that means if phone was rotated to left when taking pic, pic uploads rotated to left?

If this is true, if you figure out which orientation to hold your phone when taking pictures and always hold it that way, your photos should upload here fine?

Saving photo to computer and then sending from there is also supposed to fix the issue? I don't take many photos with my phone as it's more work to transfer photos from phone than using the little Nikon 5200 I bought a couple of decades ago... I just insert the SD card into my computer and done. Plus I like that the little old camera keeps files small... hundreds and hundreds of photos fit on the 2 GB memory card and I find the quality very good..

It doesn't matter how you look at it. That is a beautiful bike.

Buy it.

Nice bike - and do not worry about the angle of the pic. these bikes can handle that sort of thing day in and day out......

Tiz mine i tell thee.

I did a couple miles on it yesterday. At around 6k RPM , it was spluttering a wee bit.
So i started to give it a once over.
Fuel tap is leaking. The gauze filter has been punctured and the little bowl at the bottom was full of rubbish.
The carb of course had dirt in and the O ring totally perished. Cleaned out and fitted new O ring.
The in line fuel filter has been cleaned out too.
The Suppressor cap and the screw thread on the end of the plug were corroded up so changed them.
The oil pump needed adjusting on the pully. Done
Removed the oil tank and drained it out. Flushed the lines through along with the pump.
The Reservoir is full of Evaporust as it was full of corrosion. Not any more as the most of it is gone. Over night should see that off there completely by the morning.
New level glass fitted.
I polished the paint. It's come up lovely.
For some crazy reason, the sprocket side swinging arm and sprocket assembly have quite a fair amount of corrosion. It's so strange as the rest of the bike is pretty corrosion free and there's no evidence of the chain having been off.
Indicators work but don't flash. Checked for earth onto the frame and battery along with connections and the switch. Could be the flasher relay

Very nice find!
I'm wondering if the corrosion was caused by the battery vent line being mis-oriented.

Nice, whats the price, do I dare ask.
