1982 SR 250 T

Hi again folks, I just thought I'd update you on the progress of the little Yam

Thanks go to Chris66, for info on forks, now sorted and fitted with new seals :-)

By the way, I must say I found it strange that you gave the size of the bi-hexagon damper tube top, in "imperial" (ie. 5/8") when the bike is Japanese and mainly metric sizing, but I did manage to get them out with a length of 8mm studding and some 13mm nuts. they were a bit sloppy and would have been better with 14mm. But as I'm not planning on doing them again anytime soon I'm quite chuffed that the job is now done

Thanks too to Paul (O.G.O.A.B.) for his invaluable input regarding the re-soldering of the starter switch, it works fine now mate

I've put a couple of pics in the "Garage" of the remnants of the fork seals, just for a laugh.

As they were fitted in the factory in the early 80's I think they have done good service

I don't know if I've done the right or wrong thing posting the pics there but it was the easiest way as I can't be bothered with buckets or flickers
