Yamaha TDR250
Completely rebuilt and restored UK TDR250 in amazing show-winning condition. Matching 3CK numbers; three former keepers; the last for sixteen years restored it to the condition you see now. Complete with comprehensive document file which includes genuine Yamaha owners manual, service manual and parts books, old V5Cs and MOTs (almost if not all the old MOTs including the first 1993 certificate) Sales Invoice from Gordon Farley Motorcycles, lists of parts used, parts invoices and spare keys. The engine rebuild included a rebore and new pistons/rings just to be sure, bottom end bearings inspected but as it ran perfectly a top-end refresh was all deemed necessary after only 11k miles. Absolutely anything and everything considered in need of replacement was replaced. The cosmetic restoration was a bare-frame nut & bolt rebuild with almost everything re-painted or plated or replaced where NOS genuine items were available. The wheels were rebuilt with new spokes and a new front rim; all genuine Yamaha items. The quality speaks for itself in the pictures and it doesn’t disappoint in the flesh. I can’t see one cracked plastic panel on this machine; new or used parts are all in excellent condition and of course specification is absolutely standard so it’s museum quality investment grade stock. Very rare if not unique in this condition. The bike has covered only test-ride miles since the restoration and it has just emerged from Classic Bike Workshop where the it has had a lot of careful recommissioning work. This labour of love has included a replacement CDI unit (originals prone to failure) with a modern 2-map system, the carbs (full of new parts) have been set up correctly, oil pump primed and adjusted, everything checked, tested and checked again. It starts first kick, idles smoothly and quietly, runs smoke-free when warm and IT ABSOLUTELY FLIES! This thing is unbelievable for a 250…someone buy it before I hide it in my shed.
