Anyway I stripped my TL250 down and am going to try and do some restoration. Everything going ok until I found out that powder coating the frame destroys the swingarm bushings due to the high heat curing process. Can the bushing be replaceds with bronze machine bushings? Also was going to get the engine checked out but am afraid I can't get a gasket set to put it back together. Parts seem to be really scarce which is too bad. Although the bike gets a lot of knocks I think it has a rather majestic look to it and the 4 stoke sound is sure quiet compared to some of the same year two strokes. Any comments on the gasket set or bushings are appreciated. Would be great if there is a site for TL250 restoration type questions. Sure hope I have not started something that can't be finished.thksTim in Alberta Canada

Yes, bronze bushings are available for a CR125, and they'll fit perfectly on a TL250. http://www.red-racer.com/cr_elsinore_parts1.htm 25 US dollars. That's for a pair. Western Hills wants 22.95 each. You make the call. This site also lists CR125 bronze bushings, no price posted: http://www.amsracing.com/parts/hondastuff.htm

Price was not too bad (forget the price but I am cheap) Let me know if you are looking to sell this bike! -------------------------------------------------------------- What could possibly go wrong?
