Hello ! I am new in this forum ! I checked out the other parts od the forum, but i think i should post this thread here !

I have a Honda NS250R 1984 special edition bike (Rothmans).

I need to change the piston and the push rod/piston rod (pitman) of the bike.Do you know where i can find those parts ? Any sites maybe ?

I hope they are not too expensive ! Are those parts expensive or hard to find ?
Can i use any parts from another honda (or any other) bike, that will work fine on my bike ?

Never had piston/push rod trouble with a bike. I'm just a lucky guy.

First of all, you need to talk to LowCel. He's a weight weenie and could tell you what you need to do to remove ANYTHING off of that bike. ;)

And as for parts? Yes... they can be expensive. Especially if you go for carbon or ti replacments. Ask KonaRider, he will know.

Wanna learn how to joy ride that bad boy? Wait around for a few and I'm sure some of the NC boys will show you a thing or two. :p

Maybe if you ask MX and he will show you how to win trophys with that thing. :)

Need a video or some awesome pics of you on it? We've got Hank/John/Pete who might be able to give you some tips. Just don't question anything he says. Listen and learn with him.


Watch out for the "Kona Krew", those who own the badass Konas. There are quite a few of us here. Shiver in fear, my friend.


Wanna learn what NOT to do? Don't ever go on a ride with me, for I am the Crash Master! :eek:






Oh and by the way~

Welcome to BIKE FORUMS where EVERYONE is welcome with open arms..... RIGHT GUYS?? :D

You wouldn't have happened to buy that bike from EMI would you? I love the factory replica bodywork:

I wish I had some pictures of it, but several years ago, an aquaintence of mine took the engine and drive train out of a Gold Wing and installed a bicycle drive train. He used to ride it in the annual parade down the main street of town. Thankfully for him, it was mostly a downhill run.
Other than that, it was just a conversation piece cluttering up his garage. I don't know if he still has it.

I just took apart a Honda motor I swapped out last weekend. You can have any of these parts you want:
