Haha, met you half way with the sideways pics, the plan short term is to get the motor running with the bike in stock form.
Long term strip her right down and go for brat/cafe with low bars and flat seat, was lucky enough to find a local shop that sells the jadus gear so at least I can save on some postage costs.
Cheers for the welcome!

Thanks for the offer Brodie, got a heap of spares with the bike including another set of forks and a set of rims but I'm sure there will be a few things missing as it was a combination of two bikes and he lost interest when he couldn't get it going.
Spotted a ttr250 motor with kick start all intact of the same age for $450, does that sound reasonable? I really want to put a kickstart on this bike.

I know the tt250 has a slightly larger bore, around 10cc more, but you won't need the entire motor to stick a kick start on.
As far as I know the XT and TT 250s both had kickstarts so finding the gear of them shod be easy enough.
$450 seems reasonable for a motor that is not stuck and has no major issues.
The parts you need for a kick start addition won't cost you that much though.
