the deal sds good.. but whatz the rest of the bike like? bearings? brakes? swingarm? axle? plastic... a few years ago i "stole" a 84 r for $125.00 and the thg ran great.. i put new plastic on it.. and sold it for $900... but when you saw it w the dead plastic looked like crap,, but underneath was a gem.. so look the entire thg over.. sounds like a fine deal..

85-86 were the liquid cooled R's so if it is in deed a liquid cooled its going to be an 85. If not it will be air fooler. If its an 85 that will be a killer deal and if older then its still a good deal as long as its running and ready to roll..........peace

Ya...the '81-'84 250R's were air-cooled and the '85-'86 ('87') were Liquid cooled.
Either way...I think you got yourself a good deal

Some company made a watercooled head, but as far as cooling the whole engien/cylinder, I dont belive so.

There was a company that made liquid cooling kits for the 81-84 R's i seen it in one of my dads old 3wheeling magazines so that could be it or you got the year off.
