SOLD!!!! Thank you BARF!
1989 NSR 250 Track Bike. Price is $1,500.00
I got this bike over six years ago with all the intention of making it a track toy or possibly getting it titled. Later that same year my wife got pregnant, we bought a house, and I started a business. Needless to say the bike has sat and not run in the interval. I just pulled the bike out, washed it down, checked the fluids, mixed some fuel and it started right up. Sounds awesome just like I put it away. My energies are focused elsewhere now and it's time to take a loss on it. Price is set at $1,500 because I know I can do better parting it on ebay but would rather see it go in one piece to somebody who will ride it.
The bike belonged to Emil Gallant, AFM #701, who siezed the top end at Buttonwillow in 1999. The bike had just been completely gone through: suspension, bottom end, top end, etc, etc.. Emil bought himself a TZ and sold the bike to Chad Arnold. Chad put the spare cylinders on there with a fresh top end and larked around a bit with "borrowed" plates a few times. Mostly it just sat. Unfortunately he had more time than common sense and is the responsible party for the horrible paint job. My apologies to the motorcycling community in general on his behalf. Chad sold it to me in early 2003 and it's sat ever since.
Bike is more stock streetbike than racebike. Has working head light, tail light, brake light, and all dash components work (tach, speedo, temp, indicators, etc..). As a streetbike it's missing:
-Underseat battery tray (converted to run completely off magneto; lights and all work but dim until you rev it).
-Chain guard.
-Mirrors.
-Turn signals.
-Plate holder.
As a racebike it's missing:
-Nothing. You'll need jets, reeds, all the usual stuff.
Needs TLC. Tons of little ticky tacky junk like hoses, fasteners, needs a thorough cleaning, fluids changed, etc, etc..
Comes with spare cylinders that need replating, spare heads, some gaskets, spare rearsets, footpeg and original manual. I think Emil got this bike directly imported from Japan.
Anyways see pictures. Bike runs and sounds sweet but no test drives as there are no plates. All in working order just needs somebody with more time than I have.
