CB250RS-Old_Rider
5th May 2008, 17:08
I have just this moment bought home a Honda CB250RS (Blue) which I bought through Trademe.co.nz
OK the info I am looking for is this: The Decompression Lever cable is broken which leaves the decompression lever on the top of the engine is always down facing forward…..The bikes starts alright , with the choke out and once it heats up idles not too bad for an old bike….But I am wondering if the decompression lever is open all the time as I only seem to get about 80 - 90Kms.ph at reasonable revs ….Now I know the bike is old-ish 1986 89thou on the speedo and Secondhand but I still would have thought it would do better than this….Unless of course it needs rings , or worse, but it doesn’t smoke. It just feels like it should do better….Any thoughts about the decompression lever thingy ?????
Your input would be of great value to me ….
Cheers
