Aye Ian, the bike could be an ornament, rather than being ridden.

As for IanS being "pretty", well he used to have flowing strawberry blonde locks! Whether he still has them .... ?  ;)

Good health to you both, BillR

Hello Bill, I thought it may interest you. Unfortunately we have been back to our friends in Spain a few times but I have never seen it again.

Iansoady......how could you think that? 😂

Aye, a bonnie wee whizzer, no so much a thumper, as a thumpette!  ;)

I'm guessing  that it will be a Mototrans model. But, I could be wrong and it might be an Elite 200cc, built in Italy. It would be interesting to know more, if possible?

Thank you for posting Ian.

Good health, BillR

Having owned two cb250rs’s but never owned or had anything to do with (apart from blowing them off back in the day on my first RS250😁) the FT500 I honestly wouldn’t know 🤔🤷???
Cheers, Michael

Bike Problems/Questions / CB250RS Engine Casings on an FT500
« Last post by KTMat on September 15, 2026, 03:22:13 PM »
Here's a wacky question for the RS/FT experts. Could you fit a CB250RS left hand engine casing to an FT500 engine if you also fitted the shallower RS rotor and didn't care about the electric welly?

Hi Ian (all three of you😁)
I quite like the look of the one that’s trying to look like a Norton.
Would suit it better if it had right way up forks on it though (imvho)
Cheap enough to at £2000
Thanks for posting the links up 👍
Cheers …Michael
