Wanted / For Sale / 82 250GS Twin Shock For Sale

Help!!!

This thing is going to hurt me.  As long as it's around I ride it; I just can't help myself.

This bike is really nice and needs to go to someone who doesn't already have a plate in their arm.

I did.  I will heed your advice for sure.

The only thing worse than paying for a Lada would be having to keep it.  HA HA HA.

I like no moving parts :D

It was my pleasure to help out Steve.  He is going to send me some pics when he gets a chance.

I am still on the hunt for a 125...  Something between 1973 to 1975  preferably so it's not too tall.  I will continue to keep my eyes and ears open.

Thanks,

Oscar

Ron,

Thanks a bunch!  I couldn't see the forest for the trees.  I should have figured that one out on my own.  Too much work and not enough sleep I guess.  Even at my age, I love learning from the experience of others.

I really appreciate your help.  I will make the tool tonight out out "Sea Teak", a marine polymer material also know as "Starboard", that will make it slide well and protect the paint on the springs.

Regards,

Oscar

Thom,

I think I get it, but I'll need to go home and look at my shocks before I attest to that.

Thanks Ron - I think I get it.  I'll know for sure tonight.

Have you guys ever tried a product called Ru-glide?  Used to be available at NAPA.

Hi EDD 44K,

I sent you an e-mail.  I am looking for a bike and the 125 sounds like a good candidate.  I also want the Austrian Headlight.

I'm located in Cincinnati, not far from you.

I will give you a ring this evening or you can call me.

Thanks,

Oscar

What I want is a GS rear fender.

I am going to install a Preston Petty rear fender, then I am going to "repair" mine and try to get it repro'd.

Phil,

The ones you have are the MX covers.  The picture I sent you are the GS covers.  The GS covers have no "number plates" and are much smaller.  Perhaps you can post the pictures I sent you.

Cheers,

Oscar
