88-89 250r complete motor!

[toxicd]

ok guys what i have is a complete motor off of an 88-89 250r. All i can tell you about the motor is that it ran hard when i pulled it off the bike i bought. I was told by the guy that i bought it from that it had been fully ported(which i believe to be true from the power) and i believe he said it had a yz piston in it. only bad thing is that the cases have been welded in the back near the sprocket but it had no leaks when i was running it for a few days.

the motor comes in running condition with everything you need from carburator to exhaust flange. i am not sure what is in the cases, could have hinson clutch basked, counterbalancer, or not, again i never looked into it. i do know that it shifted fine and ran excellent before i took it off for my 330 motor.

i am looking to get at least $600 plus shipping. if i have no offers by friday i will be putting it on ebay, but i figured i would let you guys have a shot at it first. you can pm me or email me at ToXicPuKeR@aol.com for quicker responses. i am sure you guys are gonna want pics so i will try to get them for you tomorrow, thanks.

how much with out the stator and topend,not to mention theres a difference in trhe 88 and the 89 you should figure it out ,it will help in my decision if Im gonna buy it or not,,sounds like you have alot of possibilities and not alot of fact its borderline sketchy

sorry i want to sell the whole thing. and what are the differences between the 88-89 years now that you mention it i do know that the cdi boxes are different so i am assuming maybe the stator also, but what else besides that besides the pistons and porting?? i know the cases are different between the 86-87 and 88-89 years and thats how i know its not an 86-87 motor.

[pimpt250r]

the difference in motors is 85/86 and 87/89 , cosmetically is the gap in the front of it but internally the 89 has the better clutch set up , and there is other differences in the 85/86 and the 87/89 but Im afraid I cant give ya all the answers goodluck with your sale though ,I think your gonna need it

thanks but i have been watching them go on ebay for the last few weeks for up to 800 bucks and im in no hurry or need of the money so i got plenty of time.

pimpt250r - Just a thaught on the clutch setup difference. I would think that 99% of all 88' R motors out there have had the clutch update kit installed by now so I would not think that would be an issue.

Just my 2 cents

i agree, i have an 86 motor that got the update kit almost 9 years ago so im not too concerned about that especially since whoever had it before me was obviously into upgrades and performance.
