Default I've got a couple of cylinders

Anyone want them? One is off my '09. It's the bone-stock 250 with less than 1,000 miles on it. The other one is a core. It's a 300 cylinder with a boogered up bore. I'll bet 2mm over would clean it up. It's a Prime candidate for a big bore project. From what I can tell, it is the exact same casting as the 250 in every way except the bore is bigger. That's the one I paid $200 for off Ebay one night when I was having a few Friday night libations. (When drinking, stay the hell off Ebay. )

What do you think these are worth? If you can use them, make me an offer. I can't use them and I'm sick of storing them.

I know that. I was asking because maybe if someone on here has some project in mind or want to do some experiment. They're going cheap.

$200 is not all that cheap, I've seen them go for less even on ebay.

Yeah i'll still take it.

Really the only reason i want it is to send off to Bill and have it bored so in the 6 months it'll take me to get around to installing the Big Bore my bike won't be sitting in a million pieces ... lol

What would it cost to ship to 64863 ?

I'll do a Priority flat rate box. I'll go see what they go for. I'll bet it'll be like $10.

Sounds good.

Let me know what it totals out too and how you would like to receive payment.

Thanks.
