Title: '84 honda xr250 rear linkage wear
Post by: 2minutetim on February 14, 2017, 06:19:41 pm
Hi guys, forgive me if this has been asked before...

I'm putting together a 84 xr250 for my 16yo son to ride in VTR events this year now that he is a senior.

Trouble is that the rear shock linkage is stuffed.

It looks to be a rubber covered bush and I'm having trouble finding a new one.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? If I've got to buy a kit to do the whole lot I'm happy to do so.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Use application or component search here
http://www.pivotworks.com/
You can also search by honda part number.
they have loads of parts listed with dimensions.

All Balls in USA probably can help too but you may need t discuss it by email with them to get the right part.

Yep, nup, after exhaustive googling overnight I've come up with nothing. no one does a kit

even Xrs only in the states don't do one

Has anyone had to rebuild their linkage? did you have to buy a different kit and modify it? custom make a bush?

Anyone?......ideas?

Thanks

I typically go to Bolton Motorcycles (Kyneton Aus) site and use there part finder for my bike and then use the arrow on the side of the part number to see what other models it fits that way I can use bits of other kits to look for what I want

Honestly if its only a couple of worn items I just get them from Honda now they are pretty good

Good luck with it mate

No one may do a kit but you may be able to get the separate part. If you can
-provide a photo
- dimensions of the part
- Oem honda part number

then i will try and help you.
