| Post subject: | MT250 front fender |
I have been putting a 75 MT250 back together for commuter/getaway duties, and it's missing a ton of hardware. I've gotten most of it sorted out, but the front fender mounting is getting to me. Does this use some sort of shouldered bolt, or is there a bracket in between the forks and fender? Also, I have an ad in the Swap Meet section looking for fuel tank pieces, if anyone has some kicking around. I can't wait to get this thing out of the shed and into the woods, just got it running today with a shiny new Wiseco piston. Tons of compression, almost makes me wish it still had the compression release instead of a second plug. |

It uses a sleeve type of deal that goes in between the lower clamp and the fender. It is possible I have some or you may be able to use some sleeve from a hardware store. http://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/part ... 105358000/ http://www.cmsnl.com/honda-mt250-elsino ... F++05.html The second place has four of them but they are expensive I am not sure if the first place has any. I will go look in my boxes of parts and see if I have any. I might have tank parts too I will check for those too. |

That would be quite good if you do have the pieces, I'm not sure how much it would cost to ship them internationally though. It is good to know about those mount standoffs. I might be able to just make up something like that as well, I have a small lathe and of course welding equipment. It wouldn't be the first time I made a piece that was unavailable or really expensive. Thanks for the advice, and please let me know if you have any of the pieces I need. |
