250-500cc 99 Cr250

Nice progress keep it coming

all the green stuff is finished and they are going to run the black parts through tommorow so yay


I got the tripple clamps cleaned up and most of the parts are here, I just need to find a chain guide nylon part for the rear one and the whole front chain idler for the bottom half 800072873 is the part number but i may just make one. I ordered the oil seal set from Ebay and got screwed they sent a honda cr 250 oil seal set so i went through and ordered every seal individualy and wheeew im broke after that.

Also lol I took the 125 like a hour away to ride it and the plug fouled out instantly. when i tilted it to drain it almost all the crankcase oil came out, so made the 4 hour round trip for nothing.



I guess the guy i got it from thought rtv was a good oil seal. I got a new one coming. Also I put a 38mm pwk Airstriker on it since I cannot for the life of me find a affordable supply of tmx tuning parts. I went 55/180 on the jets with a 99 honda CR250 needle and it ran wayyyyy better and smokes way less. I ordered the only kickstarter I could find in 3000 mile radius from me and it got lost in the post. yay.

well making some progress, need to get the right size bar mount for my handle bars and still waiting on rear fender, oil seals for side cases, chaingaurd and i need to find a new throttle cable the end fell off of mine at some point but the new clutch showed up so heres hoping all the seals show up soon





but its coming together

progress

still waiting on throttle cable and levers and brake cyl cap from powder coat but got a little more put together

3 good kicks and it fired right up

very cool.

got the petcock rebuilt and the tank and all on just waiting on the money for graphics

well its broke in now and it fires second kick every time its quite the beast im having a bit of trouble getting it to idle though when i get the idle screw down enough to make it idle right it will just slow down and stall out, any tips? I got it jetted where the manual says for my climate but when i rebuilt the carb i replaced the air screw and for the life of me i cant find the sweet spot

The Mikuni carb is a pain in the rear to jet and get to idle. i just put a keihin pwk air striker and no more problems

what size and how have you jetted it? The jetting thread sticky is down

ive fitted a short body keihin 38mm pwk air striker. 55pj ddj needle and 182 mj. This jetting works for us in our riding area in the uk

That’s a steal!
