Guy just picked it up. Been 30 years since he rode it. Grin from ear to ear. Nice to put some old iron back into service.

Just finished a functional restoration on a 1981 XT250. Been sitting since 1992, original owner. Exhaust was rotted off but I found an original Supertrapp fo the old girl. Did a nice long wide open fifth gear run and shut it down. About 25 miles on the plug. Bike will likely see 'around the property' duty. Seems a touch lean but I'm inclined to leave it be. Opinions?

X2. Had success with this before. Try a few things but that looks like can o' worms for sure.

Same here. Been doing it by feel for years but sometimes you miss. Plus I maintain 4 machines so this could be a nice time saver.

I think I'll give one a try. I run loose as well, and sometimes a bit to loose.

Interesting. What is your assessment?

Sorta. Sabercat only I believe. I own two. 2006 was the only year for EFI, single throttle body, no powervalves. All F5 were dual carb powervalve motors which was worth 20 extra HP 85 vrs. 105.

Either way. Get it right. There is absolutely no reason you should need scratchers on mid winter trail or have to worry about a quarter mile run down a road.

For Christ sake, they best have put enough cooler in these things. I just did 200 miles on the F7. Several long road runs and dirt stretches with zero snow. Not as much as a blink. My ZR8 would have melted today.

Any small machine shops around? Wouldn't take much to turn out a pair.

2004 F7R Sno Pro, Green Tiger Edition. Bought new and after 12,000 miles figured it was time for a refresh. Complete skid rebuild, all shocks rebuilt, new speedo side driveshaft bearing. All front suspension components powdercoated. Five cans of foaming engine brite and a ton of scrubbing. Happy with the result and the thing still flat out rips. Might just sell the 2018 ZR8 and run this old girl next year.
