A once in a life time opportunity to own a custom purpose built race bike to be a class winning AHRMA bike. This bike is a bastard built to win races but due to circumstances it was never raced. It was built by Woolie at Deus Ex Machina in Venice, CA. You can see the post about the bike on their website Deus TZ Racer Every nut and bolt was touched on this bike with only the best of the best parts used as you can see for yourself in the pictures. If you are a serious buyer please ask all questions as I want to make sure your happy with the purchase. Fresh from Woolie’s Workshop is a
Tang-Tang’n 2-stroke with capabilities of extremely high engine revolutions per
minute and enough squeeze-pop to make your head spin. This 250cc Yamaha 2-Cycle
racer looks fast standing still and is a unique personal project of Venice
Motorcycle Design Director Michael Woolaway, who built it to be competitive in
the 250 race class. Yamaha TZs are the stuff of legends in the race world,
winning international Grand Prix races throughout the 70’s. Like all the builds
out of Woolie’s Workshop, it has that ‘final 5%” which is always the most
assiduously earned and separates the great bikes from the good ones. This
race-spec steed is feather-weight and fed by twin Mikunis to produce 50bhp @ 10,500
RPM’s. Tuck in, hold on, and safety-wire your bum to the seat cuz this little
two-smoker is a real zinger! 1973 saw the introduction of the bike which was about to transform the 350cc GP class worldwide, the incredible TZ350A. The inclusion of water-cooling in addition to other slight improvements over the bike's air cooled predecessors, the TR2, TR2B and TR3, saw Yamaha's 350cc production offering fast becoming an almost unbeatable weapon in the hands of the right rider. Internally the motor hadn't changed much from the TR3 apart from the widths and angles of the transfers being altered to improve scavenging, though actual port timing remained as it was with the older model. Also the silicon content of the cylinder was lower compared to that of the TR3's separate hypereutectic units. The new bike produced a very respectable 60bhp @9,500rpm.
