SUMMARY
One of only 6 Ron Williams-built, Maxton-framed Yamaha TZ750s. Part of a substantial private collection of Yamaha race bikes.
DESCRIPTION
- The Formula 750 class was designed for modified production bikes and was dominated by "works" teams from many of the major manufacturers
- In response, Yamaha managed to homologate a 'stretched out' version of their 2-stroke 350cc production racer
- The Yamaha 750cc 4-cylinder engine made the bike a fearsome but ultimately competitive machine
- The bike was that so powerful that some riders tried to ban it...
- Yamaha's standard frames weren't always capable of handling the power, hence other frame makers like Cheshire-based Maxton stepped in
- Forming part of a large private collection
- This restored example is presented in very original condition
- No frame number as these frames were not numbered by Maxton
- The frame was built in 1977 and fitted with a TZ750D engine
- Only 6 of these bikes were built by the late Ron Williams at Maxton and are highly collectable
- Displayed for last few years so will require recommissioning before use
