So I have this 89 cr250 I have been rebuilding the bottom end because the rod/crank assembly is shot out due to piston/ring failure.. not sure purchased from someone on craigslist.. so I took ithe crank/rod assembly to a local shop in town I brought them a new rod kit and new crank bearings. They told me I needed a new crank and not tobother rebuiling it.. I'm at the point where I'm going to take it to another shop because don't see why it couldn't be taken apart and new rod installed and closed up. Also if anyone has access to clutch parts for this year id love to buy from u ? Need inner clutch hub..  .. any advice wud be apreciated.. ?

I plan on buying a rod kit, and I'm working on splitting the case without a "true case splittier tool".I'm using a tri steering wheel puller. But right now I'm working to get clutch off,I think I'm going to need to purchase a clutch removal tool and flyweel removal tool.when I split case I plan to take crank/rod assembly to local shop and have them install and rework the crank.?this seem to be the cheapest and best way for me to go.

Can I just have the crank taken apart and re done at a shop? And just give them the rod kit and have them put crank/rod  back on..? And what's the cost for this roughly?

Ok here my problem.. I just recently purchased a 89 cr250. Bike is solid nice parts nd upgrades clean condtion I payed 300 bucks. Took it home was hoping for just a top end rebuild. But after taking it apart I checked the cylinder it was fairly clean std bore.. no major gouges or scratces.. what was weird to me was that the piston was fried and the rings were missing.. yea gone. So after messing with the bottom end I'm sure the rings are there and have done consideable damage to crank/rod assembly.. so whas my best option rebuild I would like to do it cheap as possible having trouble find ing parts like a bottom end rebuild kit.  Ok there one option. My other option is I found an 86 cr250 working used bottom end on craigslist... will this bottom end bolt  up to my 89 frame.? Also it needs clutch and clutch cover I was hoping to use my 89 cover and clutch.. this would be heaper since I got him down to 60 bucks for motor.? Help and advice much apprecaited thnks for ur time..
