Just got myself an 88 LT250R. For the time that i rode it this thing rips. But it blew out a base gasket so im in the process of gettin her back into tip top shape. The rings were seized to the piston but the bottom one is loose and the top is not so close but working towards it. I cant wait to get this beast running again. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas of how to loosen up the ring? What tires are you running on your LT's and how do you like them? and what oil/mixture are you running? thanks

 

Hey,
I got an 89 racer 250, they sure do rip without a doubt!!!!!! Sometimes the rings will cool off so you can kickem loose.I've got Razr's front and rear they work awesome!!!!!! I also run Klotz w/benol it seems to work really good
I run my machine at 32:1,most people like running at that ratio,it's safe.Good luck with the bike!
