Not complainingOriginally posted by 46wannabe View Post
I know...I've always wanted the Jawa or Yezdi but it just never became an ACTIVE hunt from my side. Then this one just lands in my lap! So I'm adding the D250 Classic to the collection which now looks like this:Originally posted by samschenker View Postrx100,RD 350, Karizma, 2 RE(IIRC), MT01, now the Yezdi.....whats next??
RX135 135cc, 4 speed, 14 bhp
RD350 350cc, 6 speed, 28 bhp
TZR250 250cc, 6 speed, 50 bhp
MT01 1670cc, 5 speed, 94 bhp
D250 Classic 250cc, 4 speed, 16 bhp
Bullet Std. 350cc, 4 speed, 18 bhp
Karizma 223cc, 5 speed, 17 bhp
Looking for modern and more comfortable shocks for the RX.Originally posted by aargee View PostStock or modern better ones?
No way!!! I just find it hard to believe that someone just gave away a classic for almost free
My charm wins over the toughest opponents
Arun - thanks man. Your RXZ is so well thought out that I definitely need that kind of attention to detail for the Yezdi and even my other bikes. Lets meet up for lunch soon.Originally posted by BigBore View PostYou got a PM bro I stay nearby so you can surely give me a buzz prior to you coming to Mahesh Bhai's place.

I want to keep it looking like a D250 classic. I'll give it the best paint and chrome but all this after I source some parts and stock up on spares. If this doesn't seem possible then I may not be able to justify an overhaul.Originally posted by RX88 View Post
Fingers crossed it runs well. Also need to know where in Mumbai I can find spares...any contacts etc. PMs would be appreciated!Originally posted by jd666 View PostKriss : 15.06.1981 - 11.10.2009

Mumbai Yezdi faithful...I would really appreciate if you guys could join me at Ghatkopar tomorrow for the grand opening of my latest acquisition. The starter is jammed (it moves between starter and gear position but once in starter position it cannot be kicked) and I need your instant tips/suggestions for what to do next.
I'll be at the workshop at 9:30am Saturday morning. You can meet me across the road from Shopper's stop at Ghatkopar. I'll buy you breakfast
2 hours of restoration madness...whats not to like?Kriss : 15.06.1981 - 11.10.2009

That, if I am not mistaken is a Classic. And looks like the head was painted - which might mean that he has opened the head - which he wouldn't do for no reason - :P
Just speculating
Cosmetically looks good - now if you can find an original piston (the next OS in case engine work is due - the larger mechanical head aches are prolly dealt with. IIRC you only get Goetze piston rings now ..
Check the pipes mate - hope they haven't been opened up for rechroming et al.Comment

Congrats on the new inclusion to your stable.
looking at the side panels,it looks like a Model B.In that case it gives all the more value.
What about the papers for the bike?Comment

I'm opening the bike up this morning and I'll upload pictures here ASAP. I can tune an RD350 with a blindfold but I have NEVER touched a Yezdi before so I'll be drawing lots of blanks. Not sure of carb settings on a piston port bike either!Originally posted by Sandeep_K_Ram View Post
Papers are clean but I haven't seen them myself. As this bike belonged to a coworker who I report to with a dotted line, I can safely assume everything is in order except maybe the Insurance and FC both of which I will get done once the vehicle is running.Originally posted by rkboy View PostCongrats on the new inclusion to your stable.

Is it a model B? I thought it was a D-250. I guess only the papers can clarify all this!
Sorry to hear that! Get well soon and come get your hands dirty! My Yezdi needs a LOT of work by the look of things!Originally posted by BigBore View PostHey Guru wont be able to come tomorow at Mahesh Bhai's place as i am down with feverLast edited by gsferrari; 11-27-2010, 08:33 AM.Kriss : 15.06.1981 - 11.10.2009

So I am at the garage to open up the Yezdi and get it started today. Some pictures:
So what does the above number mean? This one is for the guys who know bikes by their serial numbers!

Hi gsferrari,Its Model B.To confirm this check if the bike dates back to late 70s or early 1980.
Congrats once again.You've got a good classic in your hands.

Spent all my time up until now tuning the RD350. Just got done with that and I am waiting for the "Yezdi Specialist" to show up so we can get started on the bike you are all waiting to hear about.
In the meanwhile I've been looking around on the internet for pics of the bike but I cannot find any. My bike has the new-style headlight whereas all the B type bikes I've found on the internet have the dome-style headlight. Is my bike a parts bin special?Kriss : 15.06.1981 - 11.10.2009
