Yamaha Other description

This 1973/74 TZ is a stunning restoration performed by Montreal, Canada-based Bimota restoration specialist Francois Pelletier.  Good enough to have fooled more than a few TZ aficionados into the belief that it was as delivered by the factory.  Multi-time Superbike Champion and purveyor of fine performance exhausts, Lang Hindle bought this machine new back in the day - and then with a conflict arising from his contract with Kawasaki, he rode it in only one event in Quebec, Canada under an assumed name.  He sold it to a local rider and it promptly fell off everyone's radar. 

About 10 years ago, Francois found in rural Quebec, Canada. Years of storage in a less than ideal environment had taken a toll and the bike underwent a complete and painstaking restoration.  On tear-down, it became apparent that the bike had very little time on it, so the bulk of the restoration work was cosmetic in nature. Frame and engine numbers are visible in the hi-resolution photos HERE

VIN (Frame) 409-000234, Original Canadian CSA sticker: CDN 867, mfg 11/73.

Simon and Leo

Thu, 11 Aug 2011

If you are a track day regular this year, you may well have bumped into former racer and friendly Kiwi, Simon Crafar. I first met him in Malaysia in 1990 when he was riding for a Yamaha dealer team, sweating his way round circuits like Shah Alam and Johor Bahru but with a long term plan to make it onto the World scene. And he didn’t take long as after riding for Honda in the UK in 1992 he moved to WSB in 1994 and enjoyed success with both the Honda and Kawasaki factory teams.
