I picked up a 84 250R from a neighbor down the street for a little less than a song and now I need to get her back into a ridable condition.
it has sat in his driveway for at least a year, the motor was blown up and the front of the piston is chipped off at the top. the can has heavy scarring from the piston debris draging along the cylinder wall. so that is first priority
It looks like there is some type o-ring or seal is hanging out of the right side of the rear end and the rear fenders are almost gone.
I am sure I will be asking alot of questions so please bear with me.
any advice and suggestions of what to look for or avoid would be greatly appreciated.
oh I should mention that I had a 250R same year when I was a teenager and that machine was thourghly thrashed on a daily basis and rebuilt (motor) twice before I ended up selling it, I am so happy to be a 3 wheeler owner again, I cant wait for my first ride on my new toy!!
