Hi all. Just bought what looks like a 92 NSR250SE. However, closer inspection is beginning to reveal that it's a bit of a 'bitza' (as in bitza-this bitza-that for non-Brits)
Just gone over the motor looking for id numbers etc. so am hoping some of you more seasoned NSR types can give me some ideas as to exactly what it is...
OK, first up: WET Clutch Engine no starts with MC16E - does this indicate that the motor is from an earlier MC16 model? Black sticker on the clutch cover has KV3-700 at the bottom
Lower cylinder has the faint stamp 1A12 274 along the outside bottom edge. Upper cylinder is similarly stamped: 1A11 057. Bolth cylinders have L1 stamped on them too
- Lower head is marked KV3L FR1. Upper head is: KV3LFR2
- Left hand carb is marked TA 22BAFD4 on the lower edge of the main body
Any help with Identifying the origin of these parts greatly appreciated.
It looks to have been messed around with quite a bit generally and I am trying to get it to something like stock and running well before I do anything else with it. I need the following bits if anyone has spare ones kicking around they want to sell (or can adcise on the best source of them).
The 3-way connector that I assume is part of the power jet plumbing (still working this NSR stuff out so please don't snigger if I get this stuff wrong ) It fits between the left carb and the power jet solenoid (I think it's a solenoid )
Lower cylinder head coolant hose (mine's split slightly from overtightening)
Front tank mounting rubber
Rear light lens
There's a little round gizmo on the front underside of the airbox. I'd imagine this is supposed to be connected to something, but I know not what? And mine just has a short opaque plastic tube sticking out the bottom? Any pointers? What's it for?
OK. I'm sure there'll be more as I delve deeper into the bowels of the thing, but for now I'd really appreciate any help/pointers with the above to keep me going. It's a lonely old business
TIA
