Pete from WA
« on: December 25, 2014, 11:10:53 am »
Hey Everyone,
                      I raced MX back in the 70s @ 80s in the Northwest, did a couple of races in Perth but mainly just riding in the bush around Tom Price.   I have recently bought a Suzuki RM 250X from Barry who I see is active in this forum.   I plan to ride it in 2015 in some veterans events [just look for the overweight guy going slow on the RM]  The Vinduro sounds like fun as well.   

The Motor and shock have both been rebuilt and I have cleaned up the tank etc, but will complete the restoration later next year, just have to get a tow bar on the car now and wondering how to tell my wife we need to move house so I have a bigger workshop. 

A lot of it is coming back to me now, the bike is running rich so will have a look at the jetting, but any advise will be more than welcome.
