Hi all. New member in the north east.
Just bought my first 250 after waiting 40 years. Best not to rush big decisions i find.
Not seen the bike yet as a mate did the deal for me 😬 but it has allegedly done 600 miles from new.
Sounds like it's got a fair bit of corrosion from storage, just how much i'll know in a few weeks when i hope it will be out in daylight and i can collect it.
Anyway, thanks for having me, i think i am going to need lots of expert help and guidance.
More to follow as this mystery unfolds 👍
All the best for now
Cheers..... Andy

Wow! 600 miles, let's hope no corrosion in the engine, should be ok though. Drop the oil out and have a look would be my first thing to do, If oil looks ok and the frame is sound, sounds like a lucky find!
Welcome, Andy
I'm looking forward to see what model it is....

Hi all. I believe from the clues i've already picked up from this forum that it's a silver cb250n-bd deluxe. The few grainy pics i do have show black reversed wheels, a two tone stripe, two bolt master cyl, black dash faces etc. We'll see of course and as soon as i get it i'll be asking your thoughts.
