Just spend $360 for a ton of stuff I needed for it off ebay.

fresh piston and jug set
new vavles
complete gasket set including top end
compelte oil seal kit
timming chain
front brake cable
rear brake cable
throttle cable
choke cable
carb kit
seat
air filter
front brake pads
rear brake pads
front fender

still to come:
swing arm rebuild kit
rear end rebuild kit (in good shape but why not seals it before it goes bad)
drive shaft boot
tank
rear fenders
headlight plastic
tires

Anyone got the parts I'm looking for? if so PM me.

I'll take some detailed pics once I start the work and get going. The SX is supposed to have a good driveline and just needs top end work. We'll see once I get it appart and inspect it.

I know I'll have to rob a couple of parts off the ES but that's minor.

where is the best place to get a rear end rebuild kit? i saw one on egay for $49+shipping but i'm hoping for something a little cheaper.

also who's our resident 250sx/es expert? I'm goig to be pinging them for some questions if they don't mind. this 250Sx build is going to be a 2month project if I can get it done. it's going to be a riding restore meaning i'm not going to pretty everything up to show, but will clean and repaint as needed on the stuff I do work on.

^ Honda250sx (Jeff) seems to get the best deal on them.

Not trying to step on anyone's toes, but money is money in this economy........

Just got home and wooot!!!! More goodies! it feels like Christmas!
i purchasd a cyclinder and piston from rpv_atv for a good price and dudes!!! it's amaizing the condition is flawless and nearly unused. not a scar in the sidewalls at all on the piston or the cyclinder. looks like it was sitting on a shelf after being used for like 1 hour maybe!

Man the goodies are piling up!!!!!!!!!! Talk about excited!!!!!!
