Well guys ( experts ) i got a delima
i'm tossing the idea of only doing one of these projects i have.
PRO'S AND CON'S OF EACH. tri-z is getting a 310 kit ported ( dont worry cory ill still get it )
they are both in rough shape, engines are apart, in need of complete rebuilds
How about input from guy's that own both
thanks larry

Well Ill give you my story as well.I am doing an 85 Tri-Z,86 Tri-Z,and an 85 250r.Parts were a lot easier to find for the 250r.I personally am a Tri-Z guy.But I like the way the 250r looks,rides,and avaliablity of parts.I have had lots of tri-z,so I have 90% of what I need for both.Anything else comes from ebay and 3ww.Resale is all about who wants what and how deep their pockets are.I would say a nice 250r will sell faster and probable for more the a Tri-Z.If you can I would do both.Put one on the backl burner and slowly gather parts for it.I have been getting parts for an 82 250r long before I bought one.That is a furture project down the road.But If you must chose,I would see what others say,nothing runs like a Honda,Yamaha arent few but more Honda 250rs then the mighty Tri-Z!!!!! I will bet most will suggest the 250r.Be a rebel and do the Z!!!!!!!!!!! :beer Good luck in your decision.
