Hello everyone,

I have just bought a ty250 mono shock and wondered if any one could help me identify the year of manufacture?

I have engine and frame numbered(which match)if these will help id it.

Thanks in advance

Chunky,

If the red frame is original colour I would be guessing it a 1984 or 1985 model which would be called a TY250N here. I see the wheel rims are different colours. I suspect the rear wheel with gold rim is original and the non-standard front wheel has been fitted as part of the disc brake conversion. I don't know what bike the fuel tank is from.

I think feetupfun is right, it looks like a 83/84 N or maybe an S. The tank appears to be from a SWM and the seat looks to have been butchered to accept the tank. The front wheel is a "Shirty" disc conversion, which explains the different coloured rim.
