How can I tell what year my cousins lt250 is? It has standard yellow and blue plastics w/ blue frame. Anything will be a great help.

 

It should have a sticker on the left side of the frame behind & up from the footpeg. If thats gone, there is a seriel # in the left side of the frame between the gear shift & front wheel. Also unless someone has swapped engine & plastics. if it has a "T" seat it's 87-92, straight seat 85-86. And if the engine has the reed cage between the jug & carb., it's an 87-92, if the no cage, 85-86. Like I said though, if someone has changed these over the years & the frame number doesn't match the engine, he may have a mut. & not a pure bred racer.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

well it must be an 85-86. It has a straight seat. I was hoping it is newer. Is there a good after market for those years.

 

Not really. You can get almost anything for them but you might only have one company to pick from. For example, I wanted propeg nerfs so I had to buy a set for a 250r and make my own brackets.

BTW, your pic #7 looks like it was taken at the same undisclosed location as my pic #6[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]. Have you ridden at the Seminole mx track? It sure beats the local levy/dirt road stuff.
