Trials Australia Forums

Hi all, currently doing up a Suzuki RL250 1975 model, have the frame/swingarm primed and painted, engine semi rebuilt (just need to install clutch and flywheel). New Mitchy tyres ready to go. New front brake shoes.

Just wondering if anyone knows much about these bikes? The one I have was setup more for trail oriented use and has I believe a 48 tooth rear sprocket.

I am looking to run a 14/15 front with a 60 tooth rear sprocket.

However the rear sprocket on this bike is kind of special in that it has a spacer built into the sprocket on the left hand side of it for the swingarm?

Just wondering if anyone knows where I could get a 60 tooth rear to suit this bike?

Just having a quick search of the net. Found this site....will ship worldwide...lots of goodies for RL's.

428 Chain (comes with extra master link) $37.95
Additional master link $1.99

Thanks for the website link mate, will shoot them through an email and see what sizes they have.

My experience with B&J Racing is that until you establish yourself as a customer it is best to call them. Get up nice and early one morning and ring them, they are quite helpfull. You could be waiting a long time for an email answer if they don't know you. I am sure they must get hundreds of emails that go nowhere but cost them a lot of their time.



Just my experience

I am currently waiting for my order to arrive. I stayed up early (12:30am) to chat with Pee Wee from B & J's. He's a nice bloke and good for a chat. I have VoiP so it cost me $0.02 per minute. It was hard to keep my order small for my RL. It's worth the call because Pee Wee said they they do get a lot of emails. (Michael from Wollongong)
