This would be a good candidate for rear fender, seat cover, new grips, levers, and paint the frame/engine. Very nice bike!!

@markb3727 3 месяца назад

Great video! Man this brought back some memories. I had an XR200 in the 80’s. Met a friend to ride one day who had a CR250. I remember him riding away from me like I was on a bicycle! That thing was a beast! We could ride from our house back then, and would ride til our hands would barely open any more. Good times!

@zachfarkash6430 9 месяцев назад

You're absolutely lucky to find a bike like that. If I were you I would never let it go

@PresidentMcAwesomesauce 8 месяцев назад

First bike I learned to ride on was an 83 CR60. I love the 80s style and the fact they had reasonably comfortable seats.

@RockyFranklin 9 месяцев назад

Great find I’ve had over 30 bikes over the years and this model is still my all time favourite. Rode it every weekend for three seasons and it never let me down. Replaced with a RM 250 and the stator failed on the first ride.That’s a keeper smooth power and and easy to ride

@neversaynever7623 9 месяцев назад

Be nice to see you try and completely strip and rebuild to the best of your ability and get it back to how it should be. 1 would be an awesome series and 2 it would be worth a fortune. It needs an 83 front end and a good pipe. The sound of an old 2 stroke on the pipe, intoxicating. Good find Joe.

@c3r3bralm.f 9 месяцев назад

Take a sanding block to the water pump and cover and sand of a millimeter of both and either put a thicker gasket or have someone cnc an exact aluminium spacer with gasket on both sides.

@pjm204 8 месяцев назад

Fork gaiters, rear fender, seat cover, fix/replace pipe. Can't wait to see the finished product.

@anthonyblacker8471 9 месяцев назад

It looks like the owner of that bike did exactly what he was supposed to do with it. He raced that thing, exactly what it was built for, BUT he cared about his investment and put it away properly. He CARED about that bike, and it shows today. RARE to find someone who cared about them their whole lives like that. What a refreshing find!! Nice work Joe!!

Please Please please do a resto on that thing and do a video of that! This brings back so many great memories of my 86 and 87 yz 250s most of my buddies were riding CRs back then. The mid and late 80s were the best for dirt bikes in my opinion

Brings back a ton of great memories ❤ this is a fabulous bike !!! Half of my bikes today are right side drive and left kick , I have become efficient Kickstart with either leg over the years - thank you for sharing this iconic bike with us , and the little professor David Bailey said this was the best stk bike he ever rode !!! Thanks again for sharing p.s. do not use tap water in radiators it will eat the magnesium engine cover like crazy distilled water only !!!

@jakeslouw3416 9 месяцев назад

I had a 1983 CR250 for a year. Rode it as if I'd stolen it, mostly enduro and hard pack single-track and it never missed a beat. Got it for today's equivalent of $20 (48 bottles of beer was the cost) because the previous owner had drowned the stator and wasn't bright enough to fix the problem. That cost me another $5 to fix.

@martymcmannis6581 5 месяцев назад

My buddy has a older Honda 250, without checking it out, he believes that it will cost 500$ to fix. I should just give him a price to buy. Thanks for sharing this

@faciemus5725 2 месяца назад

OMG, I had one just like this, pro link and everything. Electrostatic discharge on the water pump ate a hole into the engine. Fixed it by tapping the hole and sealed it with JB weld and a non metallic allen screw. I had so much fun with that bike, regret selling it but I couldn't take it with me when I moved.

@GlorifyGodInEverything 9 месяцев назад

yes! If you are able to, please restore that machine! Not a lot of bikes worth putting the money, effort and time into, but that machine is definitely worth it imo.

Just a tip, run a strap from your ramp to under your bumper/hitch. Keeps it from pulling off the tailgate when unloading. Takes a second but worth it. Great videos and very informative. I enjoy watching you get these old bikes running.

@michaelj2277 8 месяцев назад

Brother I have been with you from the start and I have learned a lot from you. The repetition of your breakdown when you get a bike is what is so helpful. The only thing that's to repetitious is the double shot of you riding after you get the bike running please get an editing program that will do a split screen and you can show both POV and the static shot at the same time.

@GNX157 9 месяцев назад

I bought a 1982 CR250 brand new back in the day. Wonderful bike. I used to go riding with it and would man-handle it backwards up and into the trunk of my 1964 Chevelle and let it sit there diagonally with the front wheel off and fork out the back to get where I needed to go. Later, After I sold it to a guy in town, I heard back within a week that he’d flipped it over backward and ripped the rear fender off it.

@sife3438 8 месяцев назад

How funny. I had a 83 CR480 I used to get in the back of my 64 Chevelle also. They were actually pretty big trunks. Also kept my Z50 in my back seat of my 73 Capri every place I went. 5 or 6 of my buddies had Z50's and trail 70's they kept in their cars.

In junior high I raced an 83 CR 125. THE 250 was just a bit much then.had a chance to race one and survived but I was getting podiums on the 125, stuck to it til my sophomore year summer then went to 250, once I got used to it, transition was awesome, had the 85 CR 250 then. Nice rides. Hated the left hand kicker.

@a.c.m.e.ink.4568 9 месяцев назад

My Cousin had the CR500. It had a crazy amount of compression. Had to bump start it to ride. You would break your leg trying to kick-start it. Don't remember the kicker being on the left, but maybe it was.

@CraaaigV302 9 месяцев назад

Hell yea dude I clicked so fast these bikes were my childhood my uncle had one wen i was growing up the left side exhaust left side kick with the right side chain such a weird design but these bikes were so fast and a blast to ride in the 80s honda had so many awesome motorcycles mopads and dirtbikes back then they were all 2 strokes too im pretty sure lol these were the ankle breakers that compression is INSANE WOW!!

HRC Factory Honda dominated the camel supercross circuit back in them days with them old school engines. The tech for the day was awesome. You put them old motors in today's chassis with the suspension and light weight frames you got a gnarly combo. Service Honda proved when they started putting the old school CR500R engines in the aluminum CR250 chassis of the early 2000's and eventually into the 450 frames made them plan nasty.

@adamdavis2760 9 месяцев назад

I was curious I mean obviously you have to sell some to get your money back etc Maybe you could add that into your vids. what you have sold or what you have for sale and what you made or lost for a week...that stuff is interesting and gets a viewer emotionally involved in the vids as they cheer for you and hope for the best. Love your vids man been watching since the beginning...Did you end up holding on to either the 250R 3 wheeler or i believe you ended up getting a 350 at one point? some of the best looking 3 wheelers ever made

My backyard is wide open desert. In 1984 our entire family went and all got brand new bikes. My uncle got a new 1984 CR500, my cousins got an RM60 and an RM80, my dad bought an '84 RM250 and I got an RM50. We went back the next day and my dad bought me an RM60 because I was kind of too big for the 50 but too small for the 60. I couldn't even touch the ground on that 60. I had to use the bumper of the car to get it started and launch and then again to stop. That Rm60 was twice my size and I tore the desert up on that thing.

By all appearances your considerable talent via RU-vid has brought you a good measure of success. My hat's off to you. The last thing you need is advice from a boomer, but I am going to offer some anyway. ;) You are bringing some classics back to life. You are bringing some dogs back to life too. Open a showroom, hire someone to staff it (look for whatever talent you think best for them to bring to the party) and sell these jewels and dogs to folks. You are doing the world, and riders a big favor to put these things back on the roads and trails. Beyond that, keep the real collector stuff on display for posterity. Also, do an old Harley. I'd like to see that, and it might be a rewarding challenge for you.
