Posted June 23, 20159 yr Hey guys, my name's Justin, I'm 21 from Melbourne I've been riding bikes for a few years now, my first bike was a 2001 Yamaha YZ250f that I fully rebuilt myself, here are a few teaser photos....... I've also got myself a roadbike which is a 2013 Honda CBR500BUT.......!!!! I have recently picked myself up a 1982 Yamaha XS250 (YICS) as a project for myself that I wish to turn into a café racer/bobber style bike which I have created a build thread for...... http://yamahaclub.com/forums/topic/42377-1982-xs250-project/ I'm trying to gain as much knowledge about these bikes as possible but my first plan of attack is to get it running (missing the wiring loom) If anyone has any wiring diagrams for these particular bikes I'd love to hear from you, anyway....here it is When I bought it: How it currently sits: Edited June 23, 20159 yr by JaySav
June 26, 20159 yr Hi Justin, welcome :-) are dirt bikes ridiculously over priced in Australia like they are in the UK?
June 27, 20159 yr Author hey dick, for something new down here you're looking at around $8000+ for something decent, second hand they can be found between $1000 - $7000 depending on what you buythe yellow one in my photos I paid $2000 forwhat are prices like in the UK?
June 27, 20159 yr Hi Justin, a great place Melbourne, my Son lived in Ivanhoe! I enjoyed visiting him there before he moved to Putney, nr. Sydney, you have some good bike shops down, is it Elizabeth or George street. Cheers John
July 3, 20159 yr Hi Jay, fantastic photos and welcome to the forum but one thing I did notice apart from the can of WD40 there is one very famous blue can from Melbourne missing.
