Hi, I am very interested in your project as I have also build a vinduro style "HL" base 500 bike.

thanx for the nice welcome.. i hope can post some pictures soon...i'm in touch with an aussie\german friend that made a similar conversion (really well made) some years ago (he should be a mamber here as well).

my XT  will be not a racer but a  license plated  bike legal for street use..  KLX250 swingarm, twin shocks (of course), IT250 forks, simplified electric wiring.. no street stuff (blinkers, gauges etc..), but a pair of passenger footrests for my daughter..all the rest is rather stock

will post some pictures when i'll be ready

Howdy Mr Italy.  I've got a tweaked TT250 - they respond well to XT350 valves (1mm bigger), head flowing and TTR carby.  Straight fit even for stage two 350 yam atv cams.  Mine goes very well for a two valve air cooled 250.

Welcome ghostdancer, ironically, so far your English is better than many on here!  ;D
Good luck with the HL250, I would love to see that completed.
Tony.
