250 Wheel

[bump]

My bikes a converted 81 250 and still has the original rear wheel etc.

Is there any point in changing to a 350 assembly, and what if any, benefits would it give ?

There's nothing wrong with what's on at the mo, and everything works as well as it probably did in 81.
Should I just leave well alone and save the expense and aggro

i think the 350 cush drive may well be stronger fellah...but ive not heard of any problems with the 250 type...mebee someone else has...i'd leave it unless someone else knows better... ...the anoraks like to see the right one on them...

Cheers Pablo, and you've probably made my mind up for me. I'll leave it alone, especially if it'll annoy the restos !

No problems with it at all, mines got a 250 rear in it and its fine.

The 350 one does give the chain a longer life with it having a cush drive on but you do loos a few HP with it all the racers use a 250 wheel and the 350 one is heaver if thats posable cos the 250 one is waighty anough but its more unsrung waight as well . Id stick to the 250 one ,
