benno Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benno Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 what's the frame number, first 3 digits usually does it 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?
