Back in 09 I bought this DR250S, it ran well the night I test rode it, the night I went to pick it up...not. We negotiated a discount as I knew it would be something simple. My wife reckoned buying a bike off a mechanic that was not running might be a dumb idea, but bit her lip when I insisted I could fix it... 2 years, 2 bike shops and just under $5k invested it turns out she was probably right.
It has done one ride (end of 09)-
It has had a top end rebuild, rebored 0.5 O/S, has a NOS CDI, new tyres, rego is on hold AND currently has no spark.![]()
It last ran about a month ago and sounded great
Also included is a mountain of parts and a 1982 DR250Z which runs ok despite looking crap.
Parts include
Motard wheels with new Pirelli MT60 tyres, front is a rear rim laced onto a front hub
2 spare motors, one assembled with good compression
Workshop manual
Full Gasket set
Magnetos galore + a damaged CDI that may still work
3 left and 4 right side covers
2 tanks
Seat
Front end/rear shock
Would happily (possibly optismistically!) trade for anything road legal and running! If you're after any parts let me know and I'll take them out before chucking what's left on trademe...
