Just emailed a engine rebuild company,, does your piston have windows ? the old models are solid, Rm250 looks same,

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.

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.

Yeh newmee" that chrome is extorsionate, i upped the main to 205 [ std-190] its a very ridable bike, compared to the DT175.

. Got a Fazer1000 on way for a big bike. selling the illiminator900. fuel tank too small [ 80 miles to tank] so roll on summer,

SNOWING here as i look out window,,, :eusa_snooty:

Last piccy of illiminator,,

Very good to ride for a '70's single 250. I have upped the MJ to 200 -may go higher.

Very warm here in the Middle-lands. So warm I have been doing this today:

Yep, sold pressed steel.

The dirt is my very own part of Milwaukee, off the bike. The closest I have actually been to Milwaukee is Minneapolis.
