It was a plunger clock I use for the timing of the RD250E, I only wanted the clock to use with an old plug to make a timing gauge (see pics below) but the guy I bought it off at an auto jumble wouldn't sell it without the mag base. Doing the wheels isn't as hard as the professionals would have you think, they make it out to be a bit of a black art and charge quite a lot to do it but it isn't that hard, it's no more difficult than tuning my drums.

Hi if you fit new bolts be aware the bottom left hand engine to frame bolt is critical length if you leave the washer of or remove crash bars it can puncture the engine case into a oil gallery.

mike the bike:
Been there, done that.  There's only 2mm difference in the bolt length, they look identical unless you know what you're looking for.

Chris400F:
That's one of the things where I found the Parts List useful, it has the bolt sizes in.

mike the bike:
Agreed, unlike the Suzuki parts list.
