 8) would make a great transporter for the TM albeit a little bit of an overkill. Then again TM250's are a little on the heavy side :D

no they didn't come in orange Alison though not a bad choice of colour when one gets sick of looking at cookie cutter yellow ;) only the '71 TM400 RL250's, some TS's and later post '77 DS models came in orange ;)

wow :o not really a collector of literature excepting some parts books and manuals which don't mind having grubby little fingerprints all over but jeez, I got more coin than than for half a dozen old Good Food Idea mags ;) serious!

I don't graze fleabay anymore as my searches are usually very limited item/model/part specific. Like the saying 'you don't know what you got till it's gone' I prefer to work with 'You can't miss what you've never had'  :)

Alison, the final price on the TM250 kind of as I suspected. A few years back that would have been a $2000+ bike attracting more than a solitary bid. The other that sold recently went for the same coin so it appears $1500 is the going price for a fairly decent rider backing my comments of the market price dropping for anything less than full resto's ;)

Doc,That's just day light robbery on that tidy TM  :o  ;D
I don't believe ebay truely reflects the market.Steven and I just sold a CR125 74(with bits) for $1200 and it needs some TLC after boy child road it in the wavmx 15th Anniversary last year .We sold it at a swapmeet/vmx event-thats where the money maybe is better or was it just timing as in the beginning of the season.
It all seems as crazy as the housing market  :-\
cheers A :)
