Keep reading about an magazine article about modifying TL250 frame... cutting down tubes and changing rake... been googling to death the world wide web with no luck...does anyone have a jpg or have that info available to share? seems there is a lot of information for the TL125's  but it seems like the TL250 is the ******* kid:-)

I knows the article, but can't find it.....

To get better handling in trials sections , I had longer shocks on the rear ( NJB from my TLR200 ) and put the fork legs a little through the yokes.... It was still a long and heavy bike, more pre65 than twinshock, but I had a lot of fun on it, sold it because of changing to TLR250...

Done  moving the forks up in the triple clamps, replaced foot pegs... for sure a lot less weight with the new pegs...  broke one of the side panels for the 5th time... tired of fixing them so decided to build my own base /side panel unit.. just started today that's with the 2nd layer of fiberglass.. plan to do 4 more layers... next in the agnda do the extender on the clutch arm.....

I guess i need to move pics some place else...

Well finished the fiberglass project... been a learning experience:-) 

Planning on building a 2nd one. I didn't  use a hard surface for the fiberglass to sit on , my first mistake... I had plastic wrap so there is some waves.. and use filler to take waves out..

I was going to put on high density foam for a seat...  but after riding it for a while seems that is fine...
