I like the kick start, and the non chrome wheels.

Re: two thunder250 go to work.

I see the silver bike has an oil cooler. It would therefore appear that it's doable on the geezer (as folks have asked before)

But .......... is it necessary (genuine question) or just a gimmick? Or has someone found a way of souping up the engine on this particular bike to make it necessary?

Re: two thunder250 go to work.

What's fuel cost in Indonesia? (note: most of us on here are lazy-assed [and metric-challenged] Americans, so please convert liters to gallons and currency to US dollars!)

Happy riding!

yes it is very helpful installing the full system cooler since the engine is sooo damn hot especially after i bore up to OS 200. before i make the cooler, the heat from engine is extremely high usually when i stuck on a traffic jam and the bike often shutdown from overheating. now after i install it, looks like the heat partially transferred to that cooler.

the silver likes to drink Shell here in Indonesia, approximately it takes around 10 liter/week (1 liter = 0.26 gallon). so 2.64 gallons would cost around $8.7 (1 liter = Rp 7850 = $0.87)

and average fuel consumption for the silver takes 1 liter for 25 km or 0.26 gallon for 15 miles.

Re: two thunder250 go to work.

Didn't quite understand the bore out statement. Are you saying you bored out the cylinder ?? How much did you go ? Did you need a new piston ? Any other changes to the engine ? And last but not least..........did you get a good return of power for your efforts ?
