I'd be well happy if my Dad bought me a CBR250, pity he doesn't have the foggiest what one is.....

Christ I'm not paying for it. Well I will and until I have the wonga in my hand it won't be leaving my garage. I suppose when I've done the work I should tell him. Or should I???

Well even the thought and the trouble of getting it sorted would be ace!

This one

Bought it £425 delivered. Couple of bits of fairing need repairing full SS exhaust viper can which will get changed few furry bolts but its all there. Next winters project but get it up and screaming first!!! How small are those valves. I thought the NC30 was bad!!

You should hear 10 or so of them starting a race. 200 000 revs :)

Couldn't think of anything better.

Bank holiday weekend rebuild, clean and flash it up. Hopefully!!!

Ok. The bikes in the garage and going through the bits from the head lifters shims etc the valve springs have a tighter coil at one end. Is this the top or bottom?
