    Here's my '84 250 that I've owned it since '87. There have been a few mods along the way. I changed the front end to an '88 setup and luckily I was able to score a NOS tank on ebay a few years back. The bike has been ridden alot since then, so the tank doesn't look new anymore, but I do drain the tank after each use and it hasn't yellowed yet.

    Thanks mattskn,
    I really like what you've done with your 83 250 XC.
    That bike looks awesome with the black frame, swingarm, and wheels. I may borrow some of your ideas for my next project.:thumbsup:

    Now that is "Full Travel" !

    More importantly... what are you doing riding in that cold weather... old bikes break due to frozen parts!!!

    Also... if you are going to do that kind of stuff, put on a skid plate before you ruin your frame

    Where have you been? We've missed you and were just about ready to send out an RCMP search party!

    my $40.00 1979 390 auto project

    She's beaten battered bruised but she's all mine (its kinda like having an ugly girlfriend) so this is the starting point for my project husky twin shocker, it's a 1979 390 automatic in horrible condition. The motor was locked up both wheels frozen to the axles no seat and plenty of critters living on and in her.

    My $40.00 husky 390 auto takin shape

    Here's some pics after a little hard work! Still debating on using the auto motor or trying to find a decent or/cr/wr 6 speed motor. The auto is going to need a crank for sure but tranny looks real clean maybe just a set of clutch shoes for the primary:applause:

    Verrrryyyy nice :applause:





    Please check with me regarding this. The word 'auction' causes me concern, lots of things could go wrong. Unless you mean putting it up on ebay, then all those logistical issues have been worked out.

    Schimmelaw,
    My next project is underway. I bought this '90 250 WXE a month or so ago. I'm not going all out on this one as it's practically new to start.
    The Kawasaki was done earlier this year. I usually manage about 6 builds a year
