Hey Guys,

I need to buy some gaskets after discovering an oil leak but I'm unsure which exact model I have.

All I know is that it's an 81 XS250. I don't believe it's a C model as I think that had drums on the front and rear. Where as mine has drum on the rear and disc at the front.

So was wondering if anyone had a list or knew what the differences were.

thanks

Ben

Thanks Drewpy for pointing me in the right direction.

The first 3 digits of the frame no is 5E9

Managed to track down this

XS 250 RH 81 5E9-

Got it from this site http://www.dropbears.com/y/yamaha/modelcodes.htm

Searching for a gasket set ebay have a few of them that specifiy a particular model but no RH. However I have seen some gasket sets that don't specify the type ie it's just yamaha xs250 - 78-81.

I'm assuming there won't and difference between them?

Cheers

Ben
