Well a pair of MX250As are now parked in my barn with the rest of the herd. I picked them up an hour from home on my son’s request. He bought them and will fund the refurbishing. I get to do the work…..

The seller used to race and decided he is too old to even think of riding. His wife was looking over his shoulder to ensure they left on my trailer. He was disappointed that I couldn’t get the bike started. Typical story. “It ran when he parked it years ago”. It’s not getting spark. The other bike was given to him as a parts bike.

He said when he stopped racing years ago he had the bike rebuilt at the local Yamaha shop that he dealt with thru his racing years. He said it has very few hours on it after the rebuild. He said it was a complete rebuild of top and bottom including new Yamaha crankshaft.

The bike is very complete and I am hoping I can get it to fire and run before I start tearing it down. He got both bikes for $1,500. He also left me a stack of $100 dollar bills to get started on it.

Hope I can get it running…….
