    Breaking 96 XR250L

    First of all I'm brand new to the forum (and the whole motor bike scene) so forgive me if I forget any info.
    Right, after my friend had an accident on his 96 XR250L he took it back to his house and let it sit in his garden under a cover for 6 months up until last week when I bought it off of him. Originally I was going to spend a couple of hundred on sorting it out and get it on the road, unfortunately circumstances have changed and I now have to sell it.

    Basically I have everything up for sale apart from the frame (twisted), forks (bent to buggery, internals are ok though), front wheel (taco'd), bars and the front disc. I am in the process of sorting out the engine (fitting a new cylinder head cover and sorting out a hole), once I’m done (in about a week or so) that will also be up for sale. This afternoon I have taken photos of pretty much everything, these can be found in the link below. If you require more pics or info just ask!


    Here are a few pics of what it looked like before I stripped it down:

    Do you have the rear wheel and how knackered is it?

    Yep I still have it. Because the crash was a front impact only, the whole rear end is untouched. I bolted the wheel into the swingarm and gave it a spin and it looked perfectly straight still. The bearings still feel like they have quite a bit of life left. All the spokes feel nice and tight as well.
