HMMM..... thoughts? NEW Shineray XY250GY 2 Dohc 4 Valve Dirt Bike MX Enduro Trail Bike Thumpster PIT | eBay

 

[Blender]

seen them befre, they look like one of the best chinese fullsizers around, shame china hasnt come up with some decent linkage systems yet, although there is the pitsterpro lxr 250??
but 26hp@rw?? that pretty impressive!! (if its true)

 

[xLOCOx]

i think if they paired the crossfire/psto lxr swinga and shinerays dohc 4valve engine... and 6 speed gear box that would haul!!!

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

that looks like a really good buy.... wonder what can be done to squeeze a bit more power out of the 250cc

 

[Blender]

yeh, it seems to be the first china full sizer to combine v valves with 2 overhead cams...could be a good or bad thing, when things start getting more complicated with more moving parts, the margin for failure is alot larger.

 

[xLOCOx]

well i guess if its based off a honda motor i guess you could interchange parts maybe

It doesn't run though and him falling off could have bent stuff. It's a risk to take but it could pay off.

^^ i would be doing quite a few things to this, it's sad to see it in that condition.

refitting the TLS drum brake to the front,
new fenders, (Yamaha style so the front doesn't rub on the expansion chamber)
new tank and side plastics,
new decal kit
fit the correct sized rear tyre
respraying the Tripples,
refinishing the Forks
re powdercoat the frame, it has rubbed through already ?



to make it look something like this, more original

Damn that fully restoed ones beaut....still for 2800, you still get the bike as a whole with all parts (that you CAN see lol) so atleast you have something to work with.

 

[Blender]
