[QUOTE="Braindead, post: 1471748, member: 143585"] Hi ! I am a new member as of . . .well, just now. I decided a year ago that I was going to get a dirt bike and ride it for some stress relief (not like when I was young, "if ya don't crash every day you're going too slow"), so I bought a 84 YZ250. Most of the small pieces were in a bucket but I was able to trade it and a few $$$ for an IT465 and an IT250, both were around 80-81, I don't recall because I sold them before I even rode them for a tidy profit. Then I bought a Honda XR500R cannot recall what year either but I believe it was the last year for the 500. And once again, sold almost instantly. So now it is a year later and I bought a 1984 IT 250. BUT this time I bought it from the original owner. It comes with the original sales invoice, registration, owner's manual, etc. so as soon as I get the required safety crap done, I can register it for on road use ! The problem is the missing engine cylinder and head ! Apparently they stopped making new ones for it ! If I at least had the old pieces I might be able to get new ones made. Were there any other cylinders (1983 YZ250 for instance) that would work for this engine? Any idea where I can source these parts, new or used ? I think I should probably replace the piston as well. If I get stuck with this too long, I have some electric motors and controllers, maybe convert it to an EV. [/QUOTE]
