mxnutter175 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Hi All Thought I had best introduce myself on here and say Hello my name is Steve and I am currently the proud owner of a Yamaha DT250MX 1978 which I am in the very slow process of restoring (money and weather permitting)

mxnutter175 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Posted April 14, 2013 Hi All Thank you for the warm welcome I used to have a couple of dt 175 mx,s but due to money issues these had to be sold I now have a dt250mx which I am currently slowly restoring, I have posted in the restoration section however the bike I have was previously owned by another member on here and I just tagged onto her post, eventually I will start my own thread on it. Cupcake1973 I too am in Berkshire and slice glad to hear it lol also btw do you have an on site picture uploader or will I have to use something like photobucket?

Moderator Airhead Posted May 6, 2013 Moderator Posted May 6, 2013 Its coming on mate, not the easiest restore to try and tackle eh?
mxnutter175 Posted May 6, 2013 Author Posted May 6, 2013 To be fair its not been too bad I have just chilled and taken my time with it the hard part has been trying to find some of the parts but I have struck lucky on a few bits like the airbox which cost me a fiver and the wiring loom for 20 quid posted.Just got to source a set of clocks and switch gear next.
