 Just bought a Honda 250R.....help?? I just bought an '89 Honda 250R, its in great shape. Anyway, when the engine is at idle it has like a little rattle. It sounds as though it is with-in the cylinder. Is this normal or what? The bike runs great, no issues at all. Makes great power for bottom through the top end. A friend of mine said it could be piston slap......time for a new one and a bore job. Just need a second opinion. Thanks!!!!

| Mine did it, and It always freaked me out, too. You could always pull the head off and see if anything looks out of wack right off the bat inside there without having to take the whole top end apart.

| Man, thats a BIG relief. Thanks for everyone's input and comments. I think......I know I got a good deal. It has a Lonestar frame, Leager a-arms, Lonestar swingarm, Nac's steering stabilizer, a few billet items, race plastics, nerf bars, and I think the engine is mainly stock. I just put a brand new FMF SST pipe on it and I love it!!! It has a long rod....I think...b/c of the spacer plate, and it runs like a scalded dog!!!! And best of all I only paid $1,700 for it. Also, one more question. I'm mixing my oil about 4oz to the gallon, I'm using Klotz. Is that a good mix ratio??? Would that be about 32:1?? I'll post pics this week......thanks again!!

| Sounds like a damm nice bike. Can't wait for the pics. As for mix, you will find all kinds of answers. I run 16oz to 5gal or 40:1. I've been running that for the last 8 years.
