Hi
I just bought this 250R and the man that sold it to me was kind of limited on info , he was in his mid 60's and didn't seem to be in the best of health . i don't think he ever rode it , what hs said is he has had it for a little over a year and the info he id gave me he had written on some paper from the previous owner . and this is what was on the paper
8 inch extended swing arm, 38mm carb, ported and polished reed valve, Duncan ported and polished 310cc top end with Turbo Head, the cylinder is tapped for a vacuum fitting to run a fuel pump if you want to run alcohol .
The rear suspension was recently torn completely down and all o-rings, bearings, seals were serviced or replaced. new sprockets and a gold x-ring chain.installed , has an Eibach rear spring and the rear shock was recently disassembled and serviced . keep in mind this was all done over a year ago even though it has been stored since
So i have a couple questions actually first i am wondering if anyone knows who the manufacture of the swing arm is ? second question is if this motor has what he says or rather what was written on the paper then i am thinking that it would need to run hi octane fuel rather then pump gas 91 octane . i did put some pump fuel in when i got it home and ran it for a minute just to make sure it would fire up which it did but i don't want to hurt the motor and i don't know much about this kind of stuff , so would it be ok to run 91 octane or no ? and the only way to find out what has been done to this motor would be to tear in to it , Right? . so heres a couple pics of the swingarm
Thanks
