IT 250 - scored for a carton.
« on: February 27, 2008, 08:07:36 pm »
Check the IT 250 I scored in a swap for a carton of piss...
To be honest I insisted on handing over a carton - it's the accepted blokey thing; am I right?

I'm not sure of the year/model but I'll post the frame/engine numbers in the hope someone can advise.
It looks like a pig but it starts after two or three kicks - and just about everything is there.
The plastics have been painted dark blue - by brush I think.
There's an old thread here somewhere on tidying tired plastics so I'll be chasing that one.


Hey Brad, do you have any IT plastics in your stash; side cover, front plate?

Hmmm, didn't load the other pics for some reason... I struggle with technology!

Good one Wombat. Australia could trade with the world on the 'Carton of Piss' principal! I'm no IT expert but it appears to be a 77/78 first model 250. The experts will soon put a proper dating on it I suspect!

VB Gold was his request...
and thanks for the info and those ebay links; I'm one of those rare creatures NOT listed with ebay - but perhaps I should take the plunge?
The 326 Maico I bought from Big K was on ebay - I 'phoned a friend (an ebay tragic) and asked she place the bid for me! 
I'd be stretching the friendship if I asked she track and bid on multiple bike parts...

You know what I love about the 250? I can remain seated and pump the kick starter in normal shoes.
The 326 requires an MX boot - and respect!!
