chimera1 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Hi from Dallas Texas, Just purchased a great running 1974 TY250. 95% original except for rear fender, black frame?, aluminum handlebar, butchered wiring harness and a very nice fork brace that fits inside the fender. I plan to add the Headlight/Taillight/speedometer and have the fuel tank repainted. The tank had some internal rust but I filled the tank with salt and vinegar and after sitting 4 days the rust is gone. As a hobby I repair and restore old cars and motorcycles and I look forward to getting an education from the Forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could take that thing out and actually use it for what it was intended! You may get hooked ! Add, it will save you a lot on what you spend on old cars!
