First post... hello everyone from ACT in Australia

Sam_O » Wed Apr 02, 2014 7:22 am

Hi all,

A week and a half ago, I bought an Honda 1988 NSR 250 R2J MC18. It had been in storage for a number of years according the guy I bought it from. Now first off, I am new to Honda NSR's and two strokes and this is my first time to undertake a restoration of a bike.

The bike I bought needs some work and I figured that I would join a forum or two to get some help on this journey that I have embarked on. I think that once I figure out how to post pictures, I will add some to my thread so that you can all see the bike... I guess that I can also take some shots of the various things that I think will need to work on (which I will discuss below) so that I can get some advice on what to do, if that is possible from just the pictures and my explanations alone.

The bike does start (I have even started it from cold, no problem) and it sounds fine, with no rattles and no other funny noises. When it does warm up to temperature, it does seem to have more smoke coming out of the right hand (when looking at the bike from behind) exhaust can, than the left. The exhaust can on the right also seems to have more temperature than that on the left and it also seems to come out with more pressure, if that makes sense. I am not sure if that is a huge problem or not but from reading other posts online and various other things people have posted online about NSR issues, I figure it's not a good thing.
