I'm currently restoring an 82 X reg XT250 and the headlight unit retaining chrome rim is badly damaged and i can't track one down so I'm wondering if they're interchangeable with any other models from that era.??? CHeers Stuart

I have to say that i'm a bit disappointed by the "response" to my query. Stuart

Hello there, new to this forum today I've just bought a 1982 X reg XT250 with gold rims, black/silver tank and white plastic bits. Bought it from next doors son who's owned it for 21 years. It's taxed/mot'd but has no indicators as being 6v they were virtually invisible in bright light so he removed them and used hand signals. I'd like to convert it to 12v. I had an RXS 100 and early DT125LC a few years ago and the thought of 6v indicators is not appealing. Is there a way to convert the bike to 12v using later XT parts etc. Either that or I was thinking of wiring a seperate 12v indicator circuit fed from a small 12v battery that would need charging occasionally off the bike. I'm only intending to use the bike lightly so 12v battery going flat wouldn't be an issue on a journey. Any thoughts are welcome. I can see me using this site quite often cheers Stuart
