Now did i read that right where it is mentioned that the rear sprocket is originally for a Honda XL185? Between that info and the mention of the Unibear chain it is giving me ideas for my XL to get it running cheap!

I certainly hope this thread doesn't run off any potential buyers....but if it does, it will be the buyers that would normally not jump on a CB anyway due to mental apprehension. I just wanted to take it completely down and give it a good "butt sniff" for everyone. It's not like everything I did had to be done to make it acceptable. There's plenty of folks here who are quite happy uncrating and riding with very few tweaks or adjustments.
Bottom line is, the TT250 is a great CB....the best Hondoid I've played with yet. For my particular "analness", it still needed a little TLC out of crate...but then so did my neighbors brand new Honda 450. I'm not sure if he ever did get that dialed in.
The JTR269 sprocket is for the XL185 from what I hear. I can tell you this too, after running this Unibear chain for a while now, it has yet to really stretch, which is amazing for a brand new chain and it's still running super quiet. So far, worth every penny.
