Yes but yours doesn't have my fast 370 motor. BTW just picked up WP shock for the RM500, getting set to give a birthday.

Caps, yes I can do your tank.
Marc,
At least you've moved on from that farm bike thing you keep sending me photo's of! How many fox seat stencils do you want?
Cheers,
K

Hi, can you do me a couple of sets of Fox Stencils. The I have to get the No1 farm bike finished then the next project is this barn fresh KX250 with rusty forks and spokes.  ;D

I (well Mike and I) built my 370 motor from bits, but one of the bits was yellow Simons ignition cover. Anyone know the origin or story behind this bit.

Marc...Are you going to race your bikes in Japan or are you just there for a work gig and will eventually end your tenure there and be bringing them home? Just curious ;) Sorry to hijack the thread....I actually saw a Fox RM Suzuki at Corona Raceway in 1980 that looked identical to the photo yoy posted. I remember thinking at the time that it was the trickest thing I'd seen in ages.

Hi Firko,

a couple of my bikes are in Japan and the rest are in Un Zud. I was hoping to retire from my Japanese gig and come home and ride a bit more, but like more than a few people I am just happy to have a pay cheque at this moment.  ;)

Trying to build up a VMX connection in Japan as have my tricky $500 MX250 almost ready for action. Also i have B44 motor and Rickman body work kit under my desk ;D

back to the Foxy RM, yeah they are trick, I have Simons, Fox Shox, NOS Thor swingarm so should look like the real deal.
