Post by IWANT1 »

3 days stuck in a hotel at Leige airport + eBay resulted in this purchase on the way home luckly it was only 30 mins from the euro tunnel in Deal.

CB250RS

Some on here might actually remember them on the road, its older than me!

Ive pulled the engine out and sold the frame back on eBay.

A second trip away to Eindhoven between Xmas and new year resulted in this purchase, a bit closer to home in Kings lynn, i didnt buy the engine as its from a CR250 and not the most reliable.

I plan on having a go at a bit of this.....

Now if you fitted a rotating blade underneath, I'd let you practice in my garden, so long as you kept the lines straight :D

Looks fun but uncomfortable.
