//EDIT: I've just figured out that the bike is actually an SR185, not a 250. I'll change the title if I can figure out how.
This will be my second-ever build. I finished my first, a Kawasaki 454, late last year.
I was bemoaning my son's lack of interest in building a bike with me when my daughter chimed in that she would love to build a bike with me. So hellz yeah, I was gonna make that happen. I spent quite a while looking for something with relatively small displacement and a very small price tag and finally found this guy. The owner insists that it was running a few months ago but had serious wiring problems and a bad coil, neither of which scare me too much.
I talked him down to $100, loaded it into my son's pickup, and brought it home.
