Someone help with ID here please. Frame TM250-50837 Engine TM250- 50952 build date.11/1974 ... Would this be the 1975 designated model? Cheers Tim
-
'74 TM250L Chs: 41777 - 49510, Eng: 41824 - 49588
Looks like a '75 model you've got there.
-
Thanks CG ,nearly wasted $70 dollars on that late model crap :D
-
I'd have swooped Tim, the frame alone is worth the $70 regardless of year or model ;)
-
TIM WHERE AND CAN YOU STILL GET IT
-
Vultures.... :D Yes I know where it is, and I will grab it soon. Is complete rolling frame, engine that turns over, seat correct oil tank other bits and pieces . No plastics ,pipe, incorrect tank. I mean settle down ! it is just useless post 75 late model snot........ ::) Most likely cut it up for a baby sized smallbore sidecar. ;)
-
not exactly what I'd call overly excited about the find Tim so hack away mate. $70 is fair though ;) would you like me to come over and make the first cut for ya? ;D
-
Swap you a ts100 for it
-
no ;)
-
Ts 100 will be the new YZa.......... think of the profit youll make.. Ok what about a TS 50.....you know the one swap you for the motor O0)
-
Are you going to do it up or flog it your so lucky where did you find it you must have been happy with your find that would be like a dream come true for me can you post a photo ;D thanks Michael.
-
Dunno... for now it is in a shed as I suss out bits and pieces, but whatever it will be brought back to life now ; not sitting on a pile of scrap. yes saved by the price of scrap collapsing again) Oh to the mugs... I am not going make a sidecar out of it :D
-
still if you had would be one hell of a good sidecar ;D
-
Naa being as it is not pre75 something like a GS1000 is much more to my liking.... Still a motor for a lighter weight pre85, maybe GT500 two stroke twin or RM 370/PE400. have to say stick the RM500 as they along with CR500, YZ490 and KX500s became the death of the super beasts with the FIMs terrible rules changes in 86/87.
-
A TS50 you say Freaky 8) now there's a TS model I don't have. What are your plans for it? :P
-
Swap or sale.
-
you have a happy snap of the baby TS in question? :P
-
Doc ,I got it ;) bled him down to $10 and a used Honda ct125 agi bike piston and rings........................Bloody 75 model what's the main differences to the 74 ?
and I do have another universal type Wasp sidecar frame hanging on the wall............. 8)
-
Tim, I've a good use for the used CT125 piston/rings :P I've seen the little TS50 Gaucho beasty and a deal has been struck..almost :P biggest prob now is it just needs to find it's way home :D
main difference with the '75 model, lower shock mounts moved fwd is about it I believe. There might be more but that's the main contention :-\ nothing drastic but the early arm doesn't fit the '75 so break out the grinder and welder if you wanna go pre'75 ;)
-
Doc if I go to SA soon (and that looks a big if at present) I may be able to get the little bugger to here only has to go due north then....
-
jason - rocket frog is picking it up for you doc, you just got to get onto him to call me when he leaves, its back here now so he can collect from town - then home to newcastle.
-
yup..no worries Freaky and thanks Tim, Rocketfrog, bless his kind soul, will make the collection at his earliest convienience but the little bike will still need to find it's way up from Newcastle to stormy Brisvegas. Not far at all and so long as it keeps the pacific ocean on it's right then it'll be heading in the right direction ;D
-
Dare I ask parts wanted for 1975 TM250, Carby and manifold ,air filter assembly. plastic panels, rear guard assemble and tank. ;) Cheers Tim
