The DT250 I should not have bought.

(1/26) > >>

JustinLonghorn:
I saw a Craigslist ad for a clean titled 1975 Yamaha DT250 for $500. 

Went to check it out yesterday. Offered the guy $200, and brought it home.

Now, I don't own a truck, so in my Scion xB it went. Removed the front wheel and brake light...



Got it home and threw the front wheel back on...



What should I do with this thing? It has great compression. It is complete.
Should I scrap my RD400 project in favor of this DT? Should I throw the RD mags and front end on it? Run FZR brakes?

What say y'all?

Kanticoy:
Don't scrap the RD. I say build a cool tracker out of her. Maybe some shortened modern dirt bike usd forks and some 17"alloy wheels. Make a super motard esque bike. I can dig it.

VonYinzer:
You already know my opinion. I just wanted to post so I could follow along.

Big Rich:
I would have a tough time selling off a project like that........Unless you were to sell me that DT - I'll raise my offer to $240 (if you deliver it).

Kidding man. Signed up for this mayhem......

Sonreir:
Scrapping an RD400 project in favor of a DT250 is madness, in my opinion.  Stay with the RD, man!
