There was a model 14 CS ( note Competition Scrambles not trails. ) Scrambles and road models of the 250's shared the same numbers series, is there CS stamped with the engine number. Maybe it was even a CS model that at some stage got a standard road model engine fitted. Only the club dating officer from factory records can state what model the bike was when it left the factory based on the frame number. What are the frame and engine numbers, the answer as to what model it stated out as may be quite simple to discover.
When changes took place more difficult, and could well had happened with the owner declaring a change had taken place.

Because I have a model 14csr frame and standard model 14 forks and engine ( cbranni told me this)

What is the frame number? The 14CSR was introduced in May 1962, a CSR frame would have a number higher than 12500.
Is your mod 14 engine number higher or lower than 8750
