Bike Talk / Re: Pre 90's

« on: February 12, 2019, 12:50:20 PM »

KLR250, I think they are overlooked, DOHC liquid cooled 4 valve with front disk, 6 speed box, they rev hard and take it all day long, they came out in 1984 so could even be run in pre 85?

Tech Talk / Re: Steel fuel tank repair??

« on: June 27, 2017, 07:54:21 AM »

I had a H2 tank that was in everyone opinion beyond repair (pin holes and a big crease ). Anything half decent on Ebay was 900-1200 $. It was my luck , Mark from MRT Bike transport dropped of a bike . We chatted and he spotted the tank . He said , I can fix that , I used to do this for a living . I had nothing to loose , so I gave him the tank to play . A month or so later he dropped it back . All straight , lined inside and two pac painted in the right Triple H2 color . I was over the moon . He frequents on here as MRT , worth a try .

That was good luck, everything is repairable, the only limit is the repairer.

Tech Talk / Re: chineese PWK carbs

« on: June 27, 2017, 07:52:04 AM »

I bought one of these PWK 38mm air strykers for $70 including postage, what I received was a genuine made in Japan Keihin factory second, even in a genuine box with a card saying made in Japan, it just has some casting flaws on the body and bowl but performs like a new carb, Ill be buying more, I just noticed that my KTM500MXC has one of these carbs too as they have a Sudco sticker on them and it performs great too. Grab em while you can.
