Well went and picking up my thought to be 1982 250r. Got her home and checked the VIN and its a 83. So I was pretty happy about that. Anyways the guy painted the whole thing green, then put screws and rivets through the fenders to hold them together. And I also have a 85-86 seat on her too cause there is the writing of "250r" on the side. Exhaust is mint and the tires oh boy, there are bran frickin new. Ill get pics tomorrow(sunday) or on my Birthday(wednesday) So far its awesome, only cost me 350 and I still need a new top end and maybe bottom end so im buying a old Cr 250r dirtbike with a running motor and no trany for 150. So the project begins, get pics soon

I love my 250r and its onyl been a day lol

Awesome machines to be sure. Next try for an '86. The liquid cooling makes a difference. Happy Birthday by the way.
