New te250

Spent yesterday with my brother driving to pick up his new '08 te250 holdover. Still in the crate.

It will be a little while before he picks up the power up kit and other stuff he wants for it, so in the meantime, my question is- can you strip the smog crap off of the EFI models the exact same way I did with my carbed TE? I didn't see a reason why not, but figured I'd ask.

Purchased my 08 TE510 from Heinens in MN last Mar and got a great deal. They did have a 08 TE610 back in Dec for less than $6K, however
they may have sold it.

Highly recommend this dealer and they ship also.

Well not exactly, as there is significantly less to remove on the 08 EFI bikes. Taking the front motor mount bolt to remove the carbon canister is the most involved step.

It was 3 years ago I stripped the 'octopus' off of 510, so I'm sure I forgot how much crap there was.

I just got a quick glance at his as we wheeled it into the garage and I went home...but it looked like for the most part, strip extra hose off from the fuel cap down, put a vent on at the cap, get rid of the cannister and plug the nipple where it goes into the engine...if I saw it all.

I should get a better look at it later this week when I help him finish the assembly and prep.

This is great to hear! I'm in Wisconsin, found a TE250 from them and bought it! I pick it up next month.
