My new to me 1982 250R

[Dirtweed]

Found this one about 10 miles from the house yesterday. Loaded it up this morning and brought it home. A
couple little minor things to fix....have a feeling my kid is going to steal it from me though.

I bought it in the City of Rochester so of course couldn't get it out of 1st on the test ride.....seems 2nd gear
is nowhere to be found on the trike once we got it home and able to open it up. Will have to tear it down when
the weather gets warmer.

Eh no big deal. Just something else to wrench on and get it done right. Engine runs great though.

This thing has been a pain in the backside since I bought it, but I finally have the parts and it is getting torn down this fall for a full on restore.
Tired of trying to get it to work or have others work on it. Case is leaking and there is an air leak after a friend put a new top end on it for me.
I have a new rear Works shock and the white plastics from the group buy, just trying to decide to keep the frame red or powder it white to match.

One bright spot is I found hen's teeth. I found a perfect front sprocket guard on eBay last week.
