    i meant they copied the suzuki stuff they did not use original suzuki parts. the front hubs would interchange they just looked a slite bit different. we checked that out when we stripped the 86 atc conversion. the hood was identical to a Maier lt250 one.

    the astro kits used the same bolt pattern front wheels as a lt250 also.

    we sold the frame to a guy and he put the from end on a 85 350x since the 250r frame was wasted. i sold him a pair of 88 suzuki lt250 front calipers since the astro kit ones were locked up. they fit rite on with no mods

    I noticed how the front fenders blended into the radiator shrouds,quite a neat job of it but very Suzuki looking for sure.Its a shame to have an '86 left like that,im very temped to make it new again !

    I had a good look today in the daylight and its pretty sad,no CDI,'85 wiring harness,swingarm's been welded and generally untidy/rusty.The guy wont budge off $2k oh and i forgot to say that the Astro kit plastics are all broken,looks like it will rust away......

    Man that guy that has it is retarded. It is worth about 500 or less. To bad that you couldn't bring it back to life.

    Too bad Aussie, leave your numba with him? He may have a change of heart when he realises that hes not sitting on the pot of gold he thinks he is.
