But that said, i did just buy the super low hour thump chunk for the YZ chassis... It never happens but this XL250 chunk showed up on eBay with low hours and the price shipped was unbelievable ::) :eek: 8)

Sweet thump hows the camshaft and journals? Or is it gonna be like unwrapping a present?
 
I got caught up in my smoking habit again. Picked up a clean little 1970 Yamaha HS1 90c.c. twin.

I'm now the 3rd owner. The guy I bought it off of bought it in 1972 and hauled it on the front of the camper and rode it at camp sites. Due for crank seals, but she runs out pretty good. Plan it to try to sell it at mid Ohio, but I already kinda like this little booger....

I can't believe it took so long to get one of these. Especially when they only cost $10.

Great tool. Do you guys use spoke torque wrenches or just tap em and listen to the sound?

Yep, the front wheel on the XLRM needs straightened. I tried loosening them all, but they're all frozen. I forced one and snap. I may have to start from scratch with a whole new spoke set.

Little bikes like that are a blast man, fun to work on, and have in the shop.. I would keep a little gem like that.

Spokes are way more money than they should be by now, but little competition I guess.

New bits for my chop. New intake setup and a sweet cast popcicle kicker from Hippy Killer.
