My '98 Yamaha TZM
150 cc bike built in Thailand for the 2-stroke S.E. Asia racing series. Yamaha was getting eaten alive because at the time they only had the 135 cc RXZ (no YPVS) up against the Honda NSR's and Kawa Ninjas. They dropped this baby onto the scene in '97, killed the competition and the series was cancelled at the end of '98. I bought this bike from a guy who never rode it. It's 14 yrs old and only has 5000 km on the clock. It's really quick and agile with a beautifully smooth powerband. Best thing is, only 300 were imported into Indonesia (where I live) and even the guys at the Yamaha shops don't know what the hell it is!
