Here is my Metmachex Engineering 35th year anniversary Yamaha RDTZ 350. Around 1981 the LC Swingarm was the very first Swingarm to be made, the LC started off Metmachex Swingarm's and the rest is history, what I'm doing is making 1 bike the same as in the pictures, this bikes will be 100% copy of my bike. The bike will take around 3 month to finish with UK log book 1 years M.O.T but NO Road tax.

My bike can be viewed in Derbyshire to see what you are buying and to ask any question about the bike, The bike are a standard RDLC frame with all the lugs and unused bits cut off then re powder coated black. I have rode my bike lots and every thing works fine and feels really nice to ride and sound ace. The bike will have #3 engraved
On the black anodised top yoke. The fuel tank is made bigger to follow the back bone to hold more fuel (20ltr), I fit a fuel sender in the tank that runs the old temp gauge but now has a FUEL sticker on, (works good) There is a digital temp gauge that shows the real temp witch is very important with a 2 stroke.

There is a lot of C.N.C Billet parts that takes along time to manufacture but looks really good.

The brakes are full billet Brembo. The bikes are basically hand built. a deposit of £4,000 non refundable will secure you a bike the rest on collection. Engine

The price you mean?


For 30k, you would want nothing less.
That would buy you a Costin bike.

I know which one I would prefer.

I don't think the offer is aimed at the likes of you and I. That offer is intended for all the well heeled 50yo 'suits' from The City who are rolling in cash, nostalgia and regrets in equal proportion, and who want to relive their youth with style and vengeance.

And for a well made bespoke one off hand built bike I don't think it is unreasonable.

You nailed the client group

I guess what I mean..cash aside weather we would rather spend cash on other optoins ect..its a beautiful job...and it a 2 stroke and an rdlc! Dont forget this bike has been built on his time and money..its great to see another 2t devotee build a "real" bike and not some jerk off posser sr400..isnt that what a site like this is about,, the love of 2t bikes in what ever incarnation

not a hater, its a fine thing, I just dont want one. Same way few (none, I suspect) of you would want my bikes, I dont want his as its not to my taste. Its nice n all, but I dont have 30k, and can build my own, the way i would want it, and for me building is part of the fun.

What do you think of the engine mods; wank or HP?

The TZ750 barrels look like they have bigger reed valves block, and I would guess bigger transfer port. Would that result in good street power. Nothing trick about the ignition is there?

Unless the few extra cubes help, the port timing would probably be terrible for the street. No amount of other bits and pieces can fix that. Although programmable ignition might help a little bit too. Ask people who have put TZ350 stuff on their street bikes, or who ride a TZ on the track.
