    A couple of XR250 project questions

    1. What the hell is this thing and where does it go? Bolt holes dont line up to anything

    2. The front wheel is missing the speedo/spacer thing, so the wheel moves side to side. Would it cause any problems to stick 3 or 4 washers in there?

    3. Best way of recovering a seat in this cond?

    yeah that would be great... what do you need xl parts for?

    you were right about the triple clamp, ill just bung it under the seat though, dont need indicators and it sticks out the side

    with the seat i was more talking about the condition of the foam and how to fill the gaps

    It looks a bit beyond repair - you'll need fresh foam and vinyl, so you may as well take it to an upholsterer () or get another 2nd hand

    as for the spacers, make sure they mate well with the rest of the assembly and absolutely cover them in grease
