Not quite Ross, southern Ireland near Dublin, theres a few minot parts missing, i have most in "stock" though, important stuff is all there though, motor reputedly rebuilt about 8 years ago etc etc.  Cant wait to get stuck in. Should i repaint it red? its been very well done in black but i dunno.....

What are you going to do with the VG 250 frame. You can make some really good "projects" out of those things!  ;)

yeah Ross, i knew the seller was chucking in a 250 swing arm as it had the chain guide attched but didnt reckon on the whole frame or that it was a Vg250..!!  Possibilities ??

Haha, congrats, I'll bet you were excited! A few years ago I got a large crate containing an Indian Scout and a Henderson Deluxe. I took the day off to play with that stuff!

How about slipping a 360/414 into that VG250 frame?

As long as i can use the 414 forks etc on the vg250 frame i might try that!  Any other things to look out for with this transplant?

You have to shorten the head brace.  The main thing
is fitting the exhaust pipe.

Motor seemed really good and tight on the bench, but guess what, the kickstart shaft retaining circlip mustave broke, allowing the shaft to slide out a bitty....Just the reason i need to rip it down and check it properly eh Ross ?? .....
