me and my moms boyfriend are doing electric work in an old barn and i took a break cause i know in old barns you can find old bikes and i found this bike but it is missing the top end so i go it for $400 and i am moving up from a cr125 until i can get a newer crf 450 and is it fast
Awesome machine and very nice resto job!!. I love 1980s bikes, and there is nothing on the planet that sounds better.. It is not always a money issue, but more satisfaction of bring a dead machine back to life!!
i started geting into bikes in 87-88 and Hondas from that era have a special place in my heart, awesome resto project. Passion is whats its all about, theres so much time and money invested in projects like that...got to leave ''common sense'' at home!! THAT BIKE IS AWESOME!!!!!
Nice work mate, good resto,its a credit to you, I wish I lived where you do so I could ride that on the road, the traffic nazi's would be all over you here
seems that you know alot bout this bike.. i have a question for you.. i have a 1989 cr250r i had just rebuilt the motor put a new topend in it and put the carb at all stock settings and i broke the bike in corectly and i was like 5th gear half throttle on the road on my like 7th tank of gas, then it bogged out and died started right back up drove home lost all compression and wouldnt start can start like 3 hours latter gain most of it compresion back runs mint now any ideas? please help me out
Did you have to modify pegs to fit it, or did newer pegs just install without modification? Looks great by the way. Im restoring an 88 currently for a friend. That power valve set up that year is a over engineered beast. Did you have to meddle with that much?
your idle is set too high, these bikes should not really idle, you will gain more mid throttle performance if you jet for riding and not idling. Very nice looking bike though - I wish more people would restore bikes rather than part them out, good job.
@tomriddolls Pretty difficult to make a video of the bike running unless you set the idle high. Nobody wants to see a video of an arm turning a throttle.
i have a 88 cr 250r also and boy let me tell very good bike and very reliable keeps up with my cousins rmz 450f with yoshimira carbon fiber exhaust pipe
Had an 88 YZ 250 back in the day...Best hillclimbing bike I ever had....Very nice rebuild....Only thing i'd add is one of those one way valves in the gas cap vent hose...Come in handy if you lay it down on a hill !!
great vid i picked up a 1985 cr125r off a friend for a rack of beer its a bit of a case as well needs topend brakes need rebuild blah blah blah my buddy is telling me to just get it runnin then run the bag out of it but i want to make it nice again as well to me its worth it

That is a BEAUTY ! My little brother had an '88 like this, it was a fanastic bike - bulletproof. I had an 89' RMX 250.
Unfortunately our shed was broken into and the CR was stolen. The idiots probably parted it out for nothing.
Nice job man.
