Dude Nice job! Hope the repairs are not to bad you might have caught it before it went terrible.

Thanks! ya Im hoping that it all goes smoothly. I'm going to order everything tonight after I pull the top end to measure the cylinder. Any tips from you engine guru's on things to watch out for or be carefull of durring the build?

I just remembered something else. Last night I was cleaning the bike up a little before tear down and as I was whiping down the rear shock spring I noticed it says "Factory Connection" any idea how I can figure out what it is sprung for?

If you have the guys name that sent to suspension into FC, you can call them up and they will tell you. also they will revalve it for free for you now that its already been done by them.

sweet, good to know. good news is the cylinder looks good and has not been bored. The knock was the lower rod bearing as I suspected. Just pulled the trigger on the parts so hopefully I can post a running vid soon!

for 800$ and you made a thread? sheeeeeeezzz. i would have bought trhat bike already without even asking for any advise. yeah, late CRs have the noise. itsa PV thing that makes it.
Posted 12 July 2012 - 03:55 AM
ya this was a little more that the pv. the lower rod bearing was completely shot. I might be able to get away with just replacing that but I'm just gonna do the whole 9. Ill put up a price list when im done buying stuff for it (ha like that will ever happen) to show total investment.

Such a bargain man. You could sell parts off if the motor was completely shot and still be up.
Nice find

That has to be the best deal I've heard of on a 3rd gen CR250 ! Nice find.
