As some of you may know, I am building a 'standard' style (going for some timeless style) Yamaha SR250 and using it as the basis for designing and testing a range of styling and performance parts. I felt that the infamous SR250 was grossly neglected on the aftermarket and thought I could step up and make use of my design/engineering background to make some cool parts for garage builders. Needless to say, I have a pretty strong passion for these little bikes!
Anyway, I decided to start this separate thread for the testing alone so not to detract from the build itself in the original thread. Also because I bought another SR250, bone stock, just for this purpose - to test the performance parts and to test fit the styling parts. I am hoping to eventually make a series of instructional installation videos for the parts on youtube as well - I myself find it easiest to see people do stuff and do what they do, rather than reading instructions Damn left brain!
I intend to be open and honest and unbiased with the process, hoping that if anyone else were to perform the same tests, they would get the same or similar results. Maybe not the smartest business move, but who wants to buy parts that dont work?!
Check out this poor little (albeit ugly af) test mule ;D
