Well the lt250r's are about 20 years old now. I am just wondering if it is a pain the the a$$ to find parts for them such as gaskets, bearings, pistons, whatever. The usual stuff that may have worn out after 20 years.

PS: What would the condition be of the transmission after about 1000hours of use? Because, i'm pretty sure that replacing the tranny is quite pricey. (assuming they ride 50 hours a year for 20 years)

PS#2: How do the old lt250r's ride? i've sat on a kfx450r and it feels decent. Will an lt250r feel somewhat the same as a 450- except lighter..... Will it also be able to keep up to a crf450r (mx dirtbike) if the crf450r never goes 5th gear pinned?

PS#3: What is a normal price for a nice 87 lt250r with some goodies such as fmf pipes, nerfbars.

 

There are tons of parts still avabile. I bought a lt250r a few weeks ago and have had great luck finding parts. The thing that sucks is the oem parts are costly.

 

EBAY you can find it all on there copy this and paste it in search box and you will get 9 pages of stuff for your bike thats where i got all of my stuff SUZUKI (LT250R,LT 250R,LT250 R,LT 250 R,LT250,LT 250,250R,250 R,QUADRACER
