Hi, can't find my old thread so I'll start another. I'm after a cylinder head for my CB250RS, but an XL250 or early XR250 (the early 80s one) will do the trick as well.

I've just bought an entire bike in parts for peanuts from a friend of Posh Tourer's -- thanks heaps guys! It included a cylinder head, which is the main reason I bought it, but unfortunately has the same crack through that my bike originally had and led me down this path of engine carnage (cracked through sparkplug and valves).

Just wondering if anybody has one lying around they'd want to flog off to me, bearing in mind I'll be overseas from Christmas Day until mid-January.

Thanks, all.

Posh Tourer :P

Haha yeah! I'm New Zealand's largest cylinder head consumer ;). I should keep them and frame them or something.

Don't mention crankshafts! I don't need a spare crankshaft! And I never will! Gah! Hahah. Wish this engine was back together a month ago, lol :(.

EDIT: Who said I'm not already getting good head? :D
