The radiator hose is probably cheaper too.   Now I need to find a silencer, the bike had been sitting a while and there are spots where the aluminium has holes(not sure why). And I just ordered a new piston kit for it. More pics later.....

Anyone have a spare silencer for a 97-99 cr250? Also the rubber piece where the pipe/silencer connect? Goot the steering bearings greased and they will most likely get replaced in the very near future, the bars on, rear brakes cleaned and put on(waitinng on pads now), and the rear wheel on. Just waiting on the other engine case which will hopefully be here today or tomorrow(coming from Baltimore, I live in Southern PA) my fork seals, and bolt kit. Probably clean the airbox,subframe and carb today. Will post more pics later.... Any tips or suggestions are welcome.

OK, after digging into it I found that the kickstart shaft had broke off the retainer and the bolt wedge in between the clutch gear and broke the right case. No biggie found one on ebay for 135 shipped, so now the motor has to wait.

Then I took the main frame out and cleaned all the gunk off of it, cleaned and regreased all the linkage, and cleaned the swing arm.




Next I tore the shock apart changer the fluid and had it recharged.

Cleaned up the wheels and threw on a different sprocket.



I still have the rest of the pile to go through and clean.

I have an 06 crf450and while I love that bike , after borrowing a friend 00 rm250 I had to find a project. I found a 97 cr250 on craigslist which I ended up getting for $600. Now it needs some work but I will be posting pics tomorrow and thoughout my build. It already has black excels, asv levers, FMF pipe and silencer, and a set of renthal bars. ...I will post pics asap.
