I like what you have done with the 250r, but I wouldn't call it a resto. Refurbished really nice yes, but resto...? Resto is what OC and only a few others on here have done. Resto, to me anyway is making it right down to the nuts and bolts. Heck, a few guys on here have gone past resto to make the trike even nice than when it was new. Some people have been misusing resto or restore lately. I'm refurbishing my Tiger 250 by tearing it down to every nut and bolt and powdercoating the frame and parts and such, but it is far from a resto. Just a really nice and fresh rider. And it will have a ton of nos stuff on it, well, some of the parts are still being made and you can pick them up from any number of places, but in no way shape or form do I have any nos pvc fenders or any really decent pvc fenders for that matter. So I won't do others on here a disservice by calling it a resto.
