My mate had an RG 250 mk1 in his shed but he's a Yamaha man. Well after getting me to part with £800 its mine and in my garage. Needs a few wear and tear things replaced and a general clean and service and I can get it mot'd. Its that or strip it down for a deep clean and tidy things up with some paint which I could do when winter comes back round. http://i1099.photobucket.com/albums/g396/paddy-b/Mobile%20Uploads/WP_20160330_21_01_31_Pro_zps9qdhnbra.jpg[/IMG

Nice one did a mk2 two years ago, for a mate was a pig to get parts for but hey I got there he paid me penuts to do it but I love a good Suzuki stroker! Will keep an eye on your efforts.

0nly taken over a month to get the bearing cases out the swingarm an cushion lever. Got the last one out today then cleaned and polished (just autosol and cloth not mirror) the frame. I'm now ready to start r ed building at last.

[p4ddy]

cleaned and polished the frame aswell whist listening to the charts from 83 which was very appropriate.

Nice purchase!

Next to impossible to find here the the Sates. They were strictly gray market. Use to ride with a buddy who had the 500 (not sure which year). Always wanted either one

[p4ddy]

Got new bearings in the swingarm, all cleaned and put together

 

 

[p4ddy]

Got it in the frame, refit the rear mud guard and got a rolling chasis to make fitting bits to the frame easier before doing the forks and the wheels etc

 

[Reinhoud]

Nice! Mate of mine had one, I loved it! 

[p4ddy]

Airbox, battery tray and indicator wing rests ?? all cleaned and fitted
