They mention in the article that the TDR250 passed. That's the same engine as the TZR although they are using aftermarket exhausts. So I concede you may be right, it could possibly be tested and declared ULEZ free :)
All the same I'm trying to build a narrative that results in me selling it so I can have some space and time back.

Or am I just reluctantly starting a restoration....

Hopefully that link works. I managed to get the bike running, nothing fancy but definitely a healthy pulse.

Not to be rude, but who the fuck is going to use a tzr250 to commute in to central london?
Oh and I have already considered making an offer as I was thinking of putting it together and then selling it..but reality is either sitting for ages or putting it together and then using it till I blew it up and then selling it. Or the reality is that am too old and fat to do anything more than dream and get my projects finished.

I really hope a nice enduro comes up cheaper than whatever you’d ask for this. I quite like the look of it.
Took the 125 out yesterday for 40 miles test ride. It runs a bit lean and sounds like a mix between a helicopter and a lawnmower the noisy slip on, even with the extra baffle inside. At least it’s running and riding. Need that full license so I can make it someone else’s problem!

You should ask me what I'm looking for by pm if you are keen, it's probably going to be less than you think :) I'd probably give you a discount just to see it taking shape on this thread.
I starting to figure out if I can suffer offering delivery as I do have a small van which I could put it in with a bit of dismantling.

If budget is no problem look at Rokker. I have 2 pairs and the 'revolution' ones have some kind of temperature regulation built in. Really works.
Last summer I was visiting hospital in them, so riding an hour in all conditions and sitting around for a few hours in a warm hospital room then an hour home, stayed very comfy.

Are you kidding me, you spend half the thread convincing me it will pass and then argue against it being needed!
For the record I'm the kind of person who used a TZR250 to commute in Central London and I had the time of my life running rings around bigger bikes all day long.
In this day and age though you're right. There are better options for commuting.

Dragged the Lammy kicking and rusting from the shed where its been poorly for the last two years.
New top end and carb fitted but the guy that worked on it has not torqued the rear hub nut up enough and the locking plate moved causing everything to shift and the hub cone shim to turn to swarf all over the layshaft splines
Parts are on their way and I've sprung for a torque wrench to get the rear hub tight to correct ft/lbs
Looking forward to breaking the new kit in (another Mugello 186)

It’s a Y reg white PX. Was on the road a year back but some local kids broke the plastic horn cover and tried to hotwire it. I haven’t had the energy to sort it out but it’s a quick solder and a £20 piece of plastic away from an MoT. Happy to have people pop over and take a look if interested. I’m pragmatic about price given the issues.

Hope it’s not against the rules to drop this link here, but it’s on eBay now, if anyone’s interested.

Firstly speak to citizens advice, as the actions sounds very dodgy. Maybe have a look on mse as they have an insurance forum and probably this has happened before.
The one mistake, which is how it is now, after every phone call should have got the person you spoke to details and emailed them and got them to agree. Spend so much of my vague work time agree every telephone/face to face conversation by email or in writing. Even then it still goes to shit.
