Title: 1978 KTM250 Manuals
Post by: Chrisbo on January 24, 2006, 06:10:06 PM
Hi guys,

Does anyone have any 78 KTM 250 manuals that they either want to sell,photocopy and sell or scan and email me. I've bought a 77 chassis manual to get me by but ideally want all the manuals for a 78. Obviously I don't want them for nothing but I've tried places like Repairmanuals.com and they don't list them and I don't know where else to try :(.

Thanks for your help
Cheers
Chris :)

I ordered some parts from Al Buehner for my 1978 MC5 250 and mentioned I needed a chassis parts manual for 1978 and he sent me a copied 78 chassis parts manual at no charge. I received my complete order in 2 days including 2 of the elusive front tank bumpers I had been looking for at a cost of $ 3 each and 2 of the oval rear straps for $ 5 each! I will be ordering more for Al very soon. Al's the MAN!

Thanks for that Michael! I think I've been on Al's site, but unfortunately he doesn't have an email facility and I live in the U.K. so I'd need to get up in the middle of the night to call him!!!

Cheers
Chris.

Thanks Ron, I saw there was a fax number but don't know why I didn't think to just do that. I'd better let him know it's the works fax though or they'll wonder whats coming through :D
I take it he doesn't do email as he is too busy to answer all the messages he'd likely get.

Thanks again for your help guys
Cheers
Chris.

Kip, You are the man :D
I need to stop asking questions though or you'll end up sending me your entire stock.

Thanks
Chris.
