Suzuki RL250 frame wanted.

[Doc]

I'm in need of an RL250 frame. Year model not important.

Preferably not cracked but may consider anything if someone hasn't already taken to repairs with an arc welder

[pokey]

Not sure if the bloke I scored some bits from down the road managed to sell the frame , I will drop in and have a chat.

[Doc]

Cheers Pokey..I saw those RL frames and knew I should have grabbed them when there was little interest...perfect 20/20 hindsight

[pokey]

Sorry mate he has moved them along . I will keep an eye out.

There was a guy at the Maleny swap a few months ago Doc that had 2 in bits, I don't think he sold them, maybe he will be at CD10.....see you there.

One and the same DC.

[Doc]

Thanks ppls..will keep looking.

Getting ready for CD10 today JT and noticed a crack under the steering head area of my brothers bike    ..someone's already attacked this and a few other areas hence the frames now pretty much cactus. Standard procedure a few days out from an event

[oldfart]

Joan/ Doc  ....he had them on flea pay last month and I'm sure they didn't sell.

Hey chris, I can lend you mine if you're that keen/desperate? I'm halfway through a rebuild so its a bare frame basically.

[Doc]

Thanks for the offer Paul..the frame should be okay for CD10 but it'll need a permanent replacement very soon.

[mainline]

No worries,  I've read that the early ones crack at the steering head and near the foot pegs, they had extra gussets welded on to later models.

[Davey Crocket]

Hey Doc, if someone's already had a go at it then just clean it up and plate it just to be safe.

[Doc]

That might well be the best idea John.

I'd hate to stray from tradition Paul    those 2 areas you mention are the ones in question. Must double check mine..it's never cracked or had the strengthening mods.
