back in 99 my brother bought a 1980 yamaha RD250LC similar to this pic but red
Its a watercooled 250cc 2 stroke twin with a factory output was 35hp and they came with a factory 6speed. This one has had the motor ported and polished, twin front rotors from an RD350LC and from memory i think it has the carb off a RD350LC. Yesterday i sanded back the tank and soon we are going to paint all the fairings gloss black. It hasnt been started since 2000 so after my brother finished rebuilding his RM250, he will re build the RD. We have a compressor and a spray gun so im going to try and learn through experience how to spray and if all goes well it should look pretty sweet. Hopefully there arent too many dramas with rego, because the government are trying to phase out 2 strokes, and the exhausts are just 2 expansion chambers so they are very loud. They loophole for registration is that in not long it will be classed as a classic so then we can get it regoed then if all else fails. All this has come about because i have started cruising the streets on a 2006 model 125cc 4 stroke trailbike (unable to be regoed) and have been sorta bitten by the bug
