    G'day from the other side of the world, Sheboygan, WI. I stumbled across your site while looking for resources to restore my latest project, a 1980 Yamaha SR250. I found the bike laying in my woods 15 years ago after I bought my home and related property. I don't know how long it had been there, but it was last plated in 1990 and had only 4000 miles on it. Needless to say, my 20 year old son decided he thought it would be cool to restore and ride a 40+ year old motorcycle. So here we are. I have restored cycles before and currently ride/own the following, 2005 Yamaha FJR 1300, 2006 Suzuki DR650 (I think you call these the bush pig), (2) 1972 Honda CT90's (I also think you call these posties), and a chinese import scooter ( oversized to 90cc). I have previously owned a 1987 Honda VF700C (Magna), a 1984 Honda Interceptor 1000, a 1985 Suzuki GS550E, a Yamaha TTR125, and a 1987 Yamaha Venture. I look forward to lots of new resources and information on my first 250cc bike. Thanks for the site.
