    Good luck !!
    There is only one criteria for a "reasonable" MVX. Does it run on three? If no, the project is completely academic I'm afraid.

    Don't run it too long without baffles in the pipes by the way. Bleeding off too much from the expansion chambers can cause lean running according to the 2 stroke tuning bible I have here.

    Blah MVX250 Restoration..Sth Canterbury 2017

    Finally dragging the MVX250 out of the workshop corner and have stripped it done to start restoration.

    Always on the lookout for parts or affordable complete bikes because hoarding is what I know


    Also restoring an old MOT CB650.

    Please message me if you have any of the above.

    Thanks :-)
