guys i think i will use vapour blasting services on carbs, engine cases, brembo calipers and some other parts to make it look mint condition. and price is reasonable.

i saw some photos and i like how it looks.

@NINJA @Calum its possible to powder coating the calipers? i want the original gold colour on them.

[NINJA]

@pedrobatista10 yes they can be powder coated, seek out a local firm and ask their advice.

[DTR+NSR]

@Calum I thought that was the case, I'd be checking the powervalves carefully as I know on the Suzuki's there prone to failing and dropping the power valve into the cylinder, ouch!

[pedrobatista10]

@DTR-NSR you are right, that the most dangerous part on engine, if the pin get lose can damage engine pretty bad. thats why i will change it

@NINJA will do that. thanks

hi

i will send my carburetors and brembo calipers to rebuild to "MHF Restoration Macclesfield Cheshire" in UK. they do amazing jobs in restauration projects.

anyone used this company before?

[Calum]

Can't say that I have. But I have never needed a carb being rebuilt before.

Hi

Long time without parts, so i will update with big package from BlackFriday that arrived today

Brembo RCS19
Brembo Rear Disc's and brembo pads
TWM Clutch Lever
TYGA Rear Step kit with carbon cover's
Mellotti handlebars and triple clamps
Domino Throtle

i keep the same brands for this rs250 build. why change when the quality is very good

still lots of parts to buy ...

hope you like it

[Calum]

Absolutely savage!

I literally could only afford to do this to one bike, let alone two!

Fair play.

Looking smart bud.

[pedrobatista10]

@Calum thanks

it hurts my wallet building this 2 bikes, but i dont regret it. with time i will finish this one too

and living with parents helps to save cash for my hobbies

next week im receiving Transmission Kit from Renthal from reputable seller in UK (TheTuningWorks)

[NINJA]

@pedrobatista10 But when they are finished and you get the joy of riding them, it all becomes worthwhile for-sure!!!

[Calum]

@NINJA Cough Still haven't used my RS yet!

[pedrobatista10]

@Calum wow really? How could you resist to ride it, after that awesome build?

[NINJA]

@Calum Next spring when the sun's out - you'll get the itch!!!

[Calum]

@pedrobatista10 It is not registered. Has no license plate.

[pedrobatista10]
