Very nice indeedy!
I like the idea of the single shocked, air-cooled KX and RM 250's. I imagine they'd be easy to keep runnin' and reliable.
Pre 85 250 class will be the premier class one day..... ;)

Nice build Bikeaholic
I remember a mate racing one back in the day.
It seems you not alone in rebuilding this model as I had a request for a pipe for one the other day.
If anyone has one of these 82 250's I could borrow to jig from I would be interested after Easter sometime.

If I hadn't bought this 250 L I would've snapped up that one of Big K's Jase. Now that I've got it I'd better do something with it. ::)
I'm parking up the Evo bikes after this year. 125 and 250 L's for me next year......

Very nice Bikeaholic. You should be proud mate.

311.... I grew up in Mildura and knew the McSwain's quite well from the Mildura Motorcycle Club... yes they were fast guys.

In fact my very first ever bike was bought from David McSwain (well from his Dad to my Dad). It was an 1974 MR50 Elsinore. David was there the day Dad and I collected it... he was pretty sad to see her go.

Fond memories... I still remember the house they lived in near the channel in Merbein....   :)  :)
