    1984 250r

    well i finally stepped up to the big league boys! i got me a 250r that i always dreamed of having since i was a wee lad watching my neighbor on his wheeling up and down the street for days, while i was riding my 110.. its not the best but it runs good, has a 2nd set of wheels and tires and a 2nd bottom end engine, it needs swingarm bearings on teh brake side, the guys said he changed the chain side.. iw ill just get both and change them both i think.. anyhow picked it up for 500$

    here it is

    You shoulda waited it out and found a Liquid R - from what I can gather the 85-86 R's make about 40 more horsepower then the older models, can do 140MPH and with proper gearing can time travel.

    One guy here jumped over the moon on his, when he landed back on earth his suspension still didn't bottom out.

    Congrats on the though. Looks like it could be a good runner!

    Looks to be a fairly nice R. Listen to Syko about the tires. Now you need to head to s.com
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.
