Hello I am just nr Wigan,Just started this trail riding thing after last doing trials a few yrs ago ,Last trials bike was a gasgas txt. Anyway I started looking for a XR250 Dr350 TTr250.Looked at gasgas EC. But the seat looked a bit narrow.I found an old copy of TBM issue 63 nov 2000 a really good report .I started looking around and found a decentish one,with no test,been used for off road only I did budget a few quid for the test bearings new C+S ect. All it needed was 1 bulb and a new noplate,Its been on the road a few weeks now with no probs, most off road I am really pleased with how well it goes .Much better than a 17 yr old bike should do. Just like to say what a good site and really interesting tech forum I hope i have made the best choice.Sorry for going on a bit many thanks to all..

No play in wheel bearings is acceptable.
