    I bet there are more of these things out there than you think. I look for there to be a flood of NOS parts once the ecomomy turns around. Guys that don't need to sell this stuff right now are seeing what prices this stuff is bringing in a bad economy and are just salivating for things to turn around.

    I may be wrong, but I guess we'll see.
    Hmmmm, interesting observation........

    Run it! The engine's life will be complete! Win, Win! Video of first start would be cool too. So after all this time..are the seals and everything still good to use?

    REMEMBER!!!! Keep a close eye on the chain and sprockets condition.... Improper chain tension, alignment, and worn out rear axle bearings are the #1 cause of throwing a chain. This is all preventative maintanance that should never be ingored. Especially with such a engine as that. 250r's are notorious chain throwers if not kept in check.

    Sweet for sure...got a similar deal here on a 86 250r engine, not a scratch on the factory paint. Minor running issues (probably from sitting so long) but works great now. Yeah they are rare in Canada, especially up here in bush land, no one had any use for an "R"...I had to buy every part of e-bay and scratch build it. I paid 1k for the engine.

    ya i find in canada is if you find an R it usually isnt running and they want crazy money for the bikes but you dont find them that often but what was nice with mine was everything was good but the motor so i ended up with the one i got now. the one i got was for sale for 4 weeks and the price was $2000 not running but we got hime down to $1000
