    pics-85 250r and parts

    Picked up my first waterpumper a few short weeks ago. Here are sum pics of the goodies that have arrived recently. Im still waiting on the adjustable shock mount for the NOS swinger, and a welded/machined clutch case. The R came with a set of bush plastics, so I took the white ones off and cleaned them up a bit, and added the decals. The R is sporting an new oem 86 headlight, and fmf pipe. Over all it is in decent shape and I am the 3rd owner(the guy I bought it off has owned it since 95)

    I scored the Westcoast off a guy on the forums here I think. Its never been mounted and is mint! got some x system bushings here Im going to try out. for 35 bucks they they rock already! The rear rubber are titan trail claws. they seem very good on light trail and slide easily.

    Yes they are the cats Meow.
    Just drop them in the swinger, and run the swinger bolt through and you are done.
    Use lotsa waterproof grease before you put the bolt in.
    All you use is the bushings. Nothing from the stock swinger bushings are used, not even the end caps and washers, just the swinger bolt.

    Nice machine and goodies you have there.
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...
