    Question Fixing up CB250RS

    Hi, just wondering if there is many of these still out there and how hard is it to get certain parts - e.g. exhausts? (Starts ok just a weeeeee bit noisy at the moment...) also the wiring is a bit questionable from what we have checked out so far.

    Failing that if you don't mind that it won't look like Stock Cycleworks in wgtn will be able to make one up, may have a jig so could make without bike there. Maybe.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    You mean they don't sell them any more? I looked there a few months ago and they still have CB250RS 2-into-1s on their online catalogue. I've got a Cycleworks from god-knows-when fitted to mine.

    Definitely Econohonda. Or else if you're after other things than zorsts (all 3 of my spare pairs are farked ), flick me a PM, I've got metric fuck-tonnes of RS bits lying around.

    if it's on the online cattledog it means he still has the jigs & would make to order.

    I have 1 tucked up at a mates place. I had great plans of doing up my lovely CB250RS but I couldn't afford to own 2 motorbikes with no garage

    PM with the parts you need and maybe I can sell ya some parts.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    I was just doing some minor work and have found that the main cylinder head has some small cracks around the spark plug... how major is this to fix or would I be better off trying to find a new head??
