    Hi to you all .
    Im new to the 250 scene
    I just started work on a 1987 Rg250 FCH was sold in Canada for 1 year only, Will post some pics soon.
    I'm riding a 85 RZ350 at the moment lots of fun
    also working on a yammagamma, rz350 motor and frame,rgv banana swingarm and USD forks /SV650 wheels.
    Winters are long and cold here in Canada so theres always a project on the go.

    Cheers jimd

    Thanks , As you can see from the pic (taken in 2010) it needs a lot of tlc.. as of now the engine is rebuilt (top end) all the body work as been painted just need to do the decals when body work fitted. just waiting on some fork seals....

    Oh those Canadian winters, we don't know how lucky we are here in Australia. Welcome to the forum and we look forward to some photo's of your project bike (I had one also ) but sold it. Out of curiosity how many months in the year can you ride a motorcycle in Canada??

    I just drop all my pics into photobucket & direct link them here

    I only use my iphone for pics so I guess they're not too big.

    Photoshop has an option called 'resize for web' I think & that does the job too
