TM250
« on: September 22, 2013, 06:06:30 pm »
I was at a mates on the weekend and I came home with a badly dented rolling frame  serial no tm250-41177.

rear rim is in awesome condition ant the shocks seem to be orange for some reason and have bleeders near the base of them.
Swingarm is good and triples seem ok but front hub and rim is smashed,

some photos for perusal and as im doing up a rm125 theres a couple of bits I want, as for the rest ill throw something up in the forsale section at a later stage.

photos are too hard but I can send via text if interested. Wife came thru with the goods and tought me something new so hope they work.

cheers

They look like Boge Mullholland to me but I can't remember if Boges have a Shrader valve or not.

Mmmm, maybe they're not Boge Mullhollands. The shocks on the TM have a different preload setup to Boges so perhaps they are Honda (Showa) shocks.
