Post by: oldskool on May 04, 2012, 05:55:39 am

found this on boostcruising advertised as a 98 rm 250 i know its not a rm looks like a late 70's early 80's pe maybe useful to someone at the price its advertised for.

No if you zoom in on the side shot you can see the curvy bottom frame rail so definitely 81. ;D

Even though the compliance plate says 1980?
I thought I threw a hint in the last post.
I picked it up this arvy........ ;D
Just checked it again, 10/1980, does that make it an early X model?

Exactly you can have a 1980 dated 81 model and that is what it is the 80 had straight lower frame rails and a bash plate the 81 had curvy lower frame rails and got rid of the aluminum bash plate.

Had another look, frame number is PE 250 - 2042**
Checked  on a few sites, all say 1980 PE 250 T.
Doesn't matter, happy to have it regardless.

Can't complain about the price, but it's painted BLACK!!
Why do kids today paint everything BLACK??
Third Suzuki I've bought in recent times that is painted BLACK??
Maybe Rolling Stone fans or Gothics?  :D
Anyway, got that off my chest....................  :-[
