Those motors turn up a lot in pre 70 projects, and flat tracker frames where set up for the X6 motor which was a fast 2eee, back in the day with the Pro-Novice Dt guys. Theyd give the standard bzas and trumphs a run, 145mph from the factory so they say, if its got that version motor in it, has be worth it just for that.
The X6 or previous T20 where the first six speed close ratio boxes in the world. They got put in all matter of frames, was really the precuser to the fast YAm RD 2 smokers.
So be interesting to see what that thing has for a motor and condition in there. IN the states i think they refered to them as a scrambler but they were more like the bikes of the day that did a bit of everything.
Yours might be a 67 going by the tanks curve, make an awesome PRe 68 Dt racer, i think i can hook up a frame for that donk too in a trackmaster.
shes a bueaty regardless, even ol' MX250 mate leno luv that kind of thing ;)

Hey Quicky,
As the bike has to make its way down the Queensland coast to you, why not let it stop over in Docs Magic Shop® for a few weeks for a bit of a homegrown, Doc Style® transformation. You never know what the little guy will do with it, but you can bet it will look great.

Nice work VMX42 - very clever :D

I've got one of those....actually a '64 T10.....2 female owners from new ;).
Mine fouls plugs from leaky crankshaft seals........been sitting there for years...maybe someday ::)
-
Damn CG. You are the man when it comes to finding ebay stuff.
vmx42. I think the little bloke has a full plate with enough projects. I dont think id be very popular if dumped this old thing on him to fix up. ;D He;d curse me I reckon. :)
Maybe your on the right track their Freaky. ;)

The good ol T 20 ( 250 ) ...Nieghbour had one back in our H / school days. Two up with a tail wide she would hit 100 MPH no problems. Thing would go like a raped ape :)
-
Good old bike back in the day, start of the Hustlers. Bit heavy but wasnt a slouch by any means. I do believe the good Doctor has one of those in his collection.

could do this also ;D

noooo..I dun have an X6 Pokeymon..I have a lowly GT185, a Hillbilly 80 and the 118cc B series bitsa. I always wanted the T250 or T305 or even an X7 in a dirtbike or dirt tracker but that project will probably be in my next life now :D
-
Thanks for all the info and web sites guys. Sounds like its not as bad as I first thought. Seems like it maybe worth restoring or converting into a dirt tracker.
