The TT2 was the Pantah-based racing machine for the TT Formula 2 class. It used an enlarged 81 mm bore, bigger valves, larger carburettors and racing cams in a very light network frame, giving about 78 hp. Tony Rutter won the world F2 title on one, and a limited road-going version followed in 1985.
