Hi Guys,
I think persuing Cozzie will be more productive. I am 99.999999997% sure that Ajay didn't lay a spanner on the TM and wouldn't know if the correct modifications had been made.

If Cozzie can't answer then there are only 2 choices - pull it apart to check or ride it and find out [one way or the other].

The Barry Senn RH and the TM are completely different. He still has the RH and the TM was sold late last year.
Good luck - you gotta love a good VMX mystery!!!

The plot thinkins .....I'm with Doc, pull it apart check the internals out if shes all good it's cost you nothing but time . On the other hand if she goes bang = $$$$$

Cozzies probably at the wheel of the 767 half way to LA. I'm curious about what Freakys got and who he got it off now.
I have to agree with VMX42. I doubt it if Ajay or Cozzie laid a spanner on the bike, whatever it is.

See i know nothing about TMs and even less about splitting cases, im not even sure we have a shop here that can do it ? I certaijnly have no room in the half built houseto open up a can of beans nevermind a bike motor loose the bits in a week.

i wanted to use the motor in a 74 project and was hoping just to bolt it up, without $$$ or picking up a spanner, it looks to me like any other 75 model TM 250, but for the fact i have just notice when it turned up that it has oil feed into it, the case is plugged and there is not oil pumps

If youd have seen this bike youd know it,  As doc says for some unkown reason it has tin steel side number plate  :o

Firko see pic of house - Any think i pull apart would be lost in a week.  I keep buying bikes so i dont  have to work on them ( frustratinc) plus i have never been game to split cases incase i cant them back together again.  IF i could send the cases to someone to check id be interested ? :-X
