Evening Folks, I have just joined the site & wanted to quickly introduce myself. My name is Peter & I recently bought a 1979 CB250N with the intention of making it into some form of brat/scrambler, this may have not have been my brightest hour as the bike/engine was in a semi disassembled state. I know I am daft but it was really cheap & I like a challenge I have since completely stripped the engine and surprise surprise I found a couple of issues I need to check out before I spend any money on this project. I am hoping for some advice/guidance on the current problems & future ones that I will no doubt come up against. I will get a post going on my bike to show progress (if any ha ha). Enjoy the the rest of your Sunday. Cheers Peter.

This is what I am starting with, lots of pieces & the engine is currently in pieces. I may have been too ambitious with this project but I have time and determination (I might need a miracle though ha ha). Be kind guys I know it's not much to look at but its something for me to tinker with .

You`ve certainly taken on a challenge Pete, but it`ll be a great feeling when you blast up the road for the first time on her. Feel free to ask as many questions as you like, there`s usually someone on here will try and help, were a friendly bunch

Cheers Wazzbo, my father in law is in the process of restoring a gt250 x7 so it will be great to get them down the road.
