Well it looks like I will pick it up Saturday right around 1PM. It's got a fairly long stroke for a 250CC bike, compression is a little low at 9.2 to 1 so it should run fine on cheap regular. The PO changed the front sprocket for 15 to 16 teeth so that should help mileage some. We will pick it up in my brothers truck and haul it back home, so it won't be on the road before Monday. We had a trip planned that would get us within 20 miles anyway.
I'll keep everyone informed about mileage and performance, really looking forward to this little bike. May even take a little road trip on that baby on some of my favorite old US Routes.
regards
Mech
