Before I pull the trigger on this any input? It looks like an early casting that I heard possibly had issues. (http://forums.trx250r.org/vbulletin_imports/125_762_2017-04-18_1316.jpg)

If you could get it for a great price, then I would say do it. But I would also consider getting they new pv instead of that one. It was the early stage pv's that had problems. I've heard of no one that has had an issue with the new adjustable pv. If it is the one Jon ^^^^ is talking about, that is too expensive for that.

OK,  I knew there were issues with the early ones just wasn't sure.

Let's compare the numbers:
A brand new one runs $759 (with online discount) just like this one with YOUR choice of domes. During the Christmas season, they usually drop down to $699 for a short period of time. I bought a dome recently to go up to race game, I think it was $65.
This kit for sale still doesn't include an exhaust flange or the spacer plate.

Still think this is a good deal?

To play both sides though, it's 100 more for the port work

If I was going to spend 759.00 I would also look at going this way to see if I could $$$ work it out. If it don't $$$ work it don't work but I would ask myself the question.

You get the case mod free with this if you send in bare cases. You can also add a pv to this setup at a later date if you like.

But every other builder will charge you $90.00 to $100.00 plus return shipping so it is still a great deal. A big number to plug in as you add things up and decide what you want to do anyway. Just something to think about.

That seems like a high price for a used cylinder. I'd save a few more benjamins and get one of the brand new kits from ESR
