In 1988, Kawasaki launched the KR1, a 250cc two-stroke road racing replica, competing against Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha. Despite being the first to end production in 1992, the KR1 carved out a niche with its excellent handling, top speed, and ease of tuning. Less than 10,000 units were produced, making it a rare gem for loyal fans. 🏍️

The 1967 Norton Atlas carved out a unique and enduring legacy in New Zealand's motorsport history, primarily establishing itself as a dominant force in local production-class road racing and beach racing during the late 1960s. In an era when Kiwis were highly resourceful "backyard engineers," the Atlas became a coveted platform for New Zealand privateers. They took full advantage of its rigid Slimline Featherbed frame and high-torque 745cc engine, stripping the heavy highway cruisers down into competitive track weapons to race at legendary local circuits like Pukekohe, Levin, and the Burt Munro-famed Oreti Beach

New Zealand History
• The "Parts-Bin" Special Era: Due to New Zealand's historical import restrictions and high tariffs on complete foreign vehicles, Kiwi racers frequently imported standalone 1967 Norton Atlas/P11 engines to build custom hybrids, like our Race Bike.
• The Ultimate Cafe Racer Platform: Many 1967 road models imported into New Zealand were modified by local enthusiasts into "Triton" or "Norvin" style cafe racers, blending the Atlas power plant with alternative racing components.
• Survival and Collectibility: Because of the tight-knit local classic motorcycle community, New Zealand remains an active hub for fully restored and running Atlas models. Highly specialised local automotive collectors, such as Adrenalyn New Zealand, actively preserve rare racing variants like the hybrid Atlas-powered P11 scramblers

Usage & Legacy:
While designed for high-speed highway cruising and touring, the Atlas was widely modified by privateers for club racing and drag racing. Its high-torque engine made it incredibly fast, though riders had to endure severe engine vibrations at high RPMs. The Atlas served as Norton's flagship model until it was replaced by the rubber-mounted, vibration-free Commando.

Key Specifications & Features
• Engine Type: 745cc air-cooled parallel twin.
• Power Output: 49 horsepower at 6,800 RPM.
• Top Speed: 120 mph (193 km/h).
• Carburation: Twin Amal Monobloc carburetors.
• Electrical System: Upgraded 12-volt

A 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 Electric in its original metallic purple is extremely rare globally, and even more so in New Zealand. As a classic 195cc two-stroke, it was only produced for a couple of years. Finding one in the wild—let alone an NZ-new model in the striking original purple—is a major challenge.

A true "Barn Find" - NZ New (original plate : 997TG, first registered on 08-03-1971)

Needs finishing and recertifying (if you intend to put it back on the road - We can assist here).
Sympathetic paint stabilisation to protect what's there and to retain its patina
Matching Engine and Frame numbers

The 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 Electric in Metallic Purple (often referred to as "Popsicle Purple") is quite rare. While exact production numbers are unavailable, purple was the hero colour for the US market that year and it has become an increasingly scarce collector’s item.

Why It's Rare & Collectible
• One-Year-Only Run: The CS3B (low-pipe street model) was essentially a one-year model specifically designed to fill the 200cc displacement gap before the RD200 line took over.
• The "Groovy" Paint: "Metallic Purple" with white pinstripes and colour-matched purple headlight and side panels was incredibly popular but fragile over the decades. Surviving original, un-faded purple tank sets are uncommon.
• Electric Start: Having a reliable electric start/dynamo setup on a lightweight two-stroke street bike was highly advanced for its time.

Exhausts:
The factory exhaust system for a 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 consists of a highly distinctive, low-slung, twin chrome exhaust setup. Each cylinder features its own separate exhaust assembly running straight back along the bottom left and right sides of the bike.
The factory design includes several key identifying details:
• The "Cigar" Profile: The silencer body starts slender at the front collar, gradually swells into a cylindrical body, and tapers down cleanly toward a rounded tip at the very rear.
• Two-Piece Assembly: The exhaust is split into a curved chrome header pipe that bolts directly to the cylinder port, which then clamps into the main lower silencer body via a small circular collar.
• Integral Mounting Brackets: Original pipes feature permanent, triangular metal mounting tabs welded directly to the top edge of the chrome body to secure them to the motorcycle's frame tabs.

Specs:
• 198cc parallel-twin engine
• 5-speed manual gearbox
• Purple tank with White pinstriping
• Chrome fenders
• Black 2-up seat with passenger strap
• Polished spoke wheels
• Chrome dual exhaust
