WTB Aprilia RS250 cylinder (or 2). Seized at last AFM event

Hi fellow Aprilia RS250 Addicts,

Unfortunately, had some issues during AFM round 3 Saturday practice and seized both cylinders.

Not sure why but assume was a fuel delivery issue and not jetting b/c was safe based on last race weekend which had higher air density.

Bottom cylinder is OK but top needs a new replate so will be sending back to TTW.

Not sure it will be back before round 4 on June 26/27.

Does anyone have any spare good cylinders they are willing to sell? I need one but would love to have a pair.

im in California.

thanks friends,
dylan

 

the AF1 cylinders have to be plated right

 

Called AF1 and they don’t have any cylinders.

 

contact @SpeedWerks Racing ? They have a lot of 2 strokes

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

Steve at speedwerk is looking through his hoard of parts

anyone else?

I may have found one in UK and are working out a value for the deal.

what do you guys think a good useable cylinder is worth?

 

Seems like new or replated cylinders are around $800-$900, so I think a good used is worth around $500ish.

 

Dylan, I have probably 20 cylinders... normally wouldn't sell any of them, but if you get desperate I could start digging for you. Want to see you back on the track.

 

Thanks Richard

I think Steve at speedwerks has a used one for me.

I might call you about that gas thank again soon. Going to do my best to improve on my plastic weld attempt.

coating with Caswell may be best option.

Dylan

 

I just had mine plated, $200 each, in PA

 

Can you share who did that for you?
