Hi, always loved the look of the late model Italian huskys but couldn't afford one back then, got the chance to pick up a cheap project a 2011 te 250 with what is said to be a seized engine.
Crank cases look OK so don't think it threw a rod it either heat seized or the timing chain failed or something else.
Question is what is parts availability like in the UK, I've spent alot of time googling but I'm either not looking in the right place or there's a secret website I can't find but other than the odd second hand part I can't really find much which is off putting when I'm looking St maybe a full rebuild.
Can anyone help before I take the plunge I want to save the old girl but if it's not possible or going to cost thousands getting oem parts from darkest Europe then I won't bother.
Thanks
