      Ugh, horrid... I'm glad I did mine while it was apart, but I still wish I knew how good the head and cylinders would look from the wet blasting. If I knew it would be that good I would've sent him the lot to get done regardless of the cost...

        Any good to you? Looks like he should have a valve cover if it's the right model 250...

        If a guy called Chris still owns and runs the site (looks like he does), then I rode with him a few times years ago when he had a T500 Titan and a T250. Good bloke but haven't caught up with him in about 10 years or so...

        Edit: Nice pipes too!

              Found one near Newcastle for $28 inc bolts and freight, so he is the winner so far.

                          There are pics of the warehouse here. I've been there and these pictures only show a fraction of what's available. You could sift through there for weeks if you didn't know where to look.
