Post by: broken1 on April 08, 2014, 12:58:00 AM: Welcome to the site. You have a good start, i dig the old school fast trekkers. One of the many good things about 250R's is that parts are still fairly readily available because they have quite a following. Good luck with the build & keep the pictures coming.
