Looks a lot like mine - is it the '89 by any chance? They are indeed great ways to learn about motorbike engines Nice bike, nice work and have fun on it ____________________ 'Allo! My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!

its the 88 model with the rear drum brake mate
just been out to start her and she is smoking quite a lot i know 2 strokes should but should it get less when it is warmed up? or will a good old long run sort it out as it hasn't been ridden properly for a good 7 months maybe more.
i really can't wait to get out there and learn to ride the thing now, thanks for all the kind comments its gonna be a fun summer holidays
also is £315 a good price for insurance? 18 living in Woking, surrey on third party only and that is off an internet quite from ebikesure
cheers

A good 20 mile thrash will clear the smoke, more than likely a lot of old oil in the exhaust ____________________ Currently in the stable.. '89 TDR250, 86 NSR250 '79 350LC, '79 DT175MX, 82, Pasola, '98 R1, '95 Speed Triple.. all of them total sheds.. |
