no my 250 z does not look good! thats the before photos, but is was in pretty good condition when i got it.
-
Hi Leith I think it looks good any way but it will look very good when its done mine started a lot worse than that after i pulled it out from under a tree at dads mates place after atleast five years but it suprised me when after a dozen kicks it started even with the air filter in 100 peices ;D that rs looks pretty good but i do prefer pe's your ds is looking really good Doc Thanks Michael. :)
-
yes that me on it as the leading bid .hey lcw3077 do want to sell any of you nos bits for 250b??? ed
-
HEY CHRIS the rs was a great rm pe hybrid did we get any in aus. ed
-
possibly. yes. ive got a complet french headlight and mounts comming soon and it is the same as 77 PE light. once i get that i will then decide. it will also depend if i can find that DR light i want.
i have 2 NOS black shells and 2 NOS chrome rims and a NOS chrome grill. i will keep you in mind if i decide to not keep them which i think that will be the case.
NO we did not get any RS 250 or 175 in australia. im pretty sure there was 80 and 81 RS 250. the seller said it only ran for 1 yr though.
-
Yeah not a bad style of bike at all the RS series.
The 175 went for three years with the T X and Z models
The 250 was T and X only i believe
I dont think they had compliance plates for rego purposes unlike the PE's
-
yeah not a bad thing the RS but less of a bike than the RM or PE. Kind of an in between playbike and in no mans land really. My guess it the factory needed to use up some excess parts in the US before these bits became totally obsolete due to the introduction of linkage rear suspension ;)
-
also they were only really a play bike and the aim was to make them a cheap entry level bike, using old parts and common parts out of teh parts bins. they were intended for people who wanted something a bit more that a DS or TS 185/250, but didnt want or need a RM motocrosser or the PE enduro bike. they were not intended as an enduro bike or MX race bike. they were purely and offroad 'play' or 'fun' bike
main reason we did not get them here is that they did not have compliance plates so suzuki Aus would not have been interested in importing them
