blackhat250 Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Just emailed a engine rebuild company,, does your piston have windows ? the old models are solid, Rm250 looks same, http://www.roadanddirtperformancebikeparts.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted November 16, 2012 Moderator Share Posted November 16, 2012 The loose one that came with the bike was solid too. They may be all the same apart from the A and X models?? I haven't had the top off the spare engine yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted April 7, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 7, 2013 Great job. Hopefully we can get a picture of the 2 TS's together at the F1se weekend. There is some chrome on fleabay for yours at the moment but all highly priced. I need to take mine for a spin. Only about 15 miles on the new L/H seal but I have rejetted the carb and had the exhaust off for a repaint since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
