New stock OEM 85 250r motor with ZERO hours!! Could this be a dream??

[Wes350x]

Back when I was in high school we had five 250R and five 350X motors that had been donated to the shop class. They had already been there 10 years before I got there.

Man, all we had were old briggs and Stratton 5hp engines lol

That's sweet!

did you buy it?!

Did you buy it?

[jamieg45]

Did you buy it and if so for how much. That is a rare find anymore and it needs to be mounted on a pumashine engine stand for sure.

If anyone is interested in one I know a guy with one I can get you hooked up with him. I saw it in person it's beautiful. I'm not a historian but I can let the two of you talk. It is a spotless motor.

Guy also has a half dozen 350x motors for what it's worth

Any clue what he might want for it?

Believe it was 12 or 1400 and he isn't opposed to shipping. He's an E-bayer lol

soon to be my new motor :applause:  the right thing to do I think is to put it in a restored ATC.  I'm not going that route.  this one is going directly to LED and then into a Laeger frame.  my dream of having a 100% new 250R is almost complete.

At least it is going to a good home.  What top end are you going with?  I would love to find one of these mint motors to put in my 88.

I hope you show off a picture when it's all done.  I love those all black motors.

[croat1]

I've been documenting and collecting parts  for years.  every time I get close to being "finished" I change direction.  Being anal as I am everything has to be done 100% right.  can't wait to be finally done and then beat the crap out of it.  I will post pics when all is done.

Joe nice scoop!  That ol' engine of Steve's would go good in a laeger frame. I regret not being faster and richer when he sold that thing! Lol
