Sweet 01 dude. I have 2 Ill never sell. Bought one last year almost brand new. Racing it this year 20hrs on first piston. Its a monster. Put the 10mm pwr valve spacer on you'll be happy. Also jetted mikuni with jd kit and its great. Lectron worth it? Have vforce to try out next.
One is posted for only 2,000 near me on Craigslist. It’s a 01 cr250. It looks like it doesn’t have much frame wear or riding wear at all, but I can only tell in person. It looks almost all stock but the radiator guards, maybe radiators, full fmf pipe (kinda dinged up) and different graphics.. should I get it???
@@MrSmokeingood well it was rebuilt using wrench rabbit rebuild kit. V force reeds, ECT, never seemed to run right was trying to figure the jetting out and it was really rich and all of a sudden it died, wont start back up I'm beyond frustrated with it put $ 5,000 into it last year. I'm in Michigan so we only ride in the summers mostly
@@kylekb8659 mine was always a little rich till I put a s7 nozzle jet into my stock mikuni tmx carb , that really woke this bike up, I got it on jetsrus.com (HONDA OEM NOZZLE/ NEEDLE JET S-7 784-13005 (SKU 003-722)… this is the trick to this bike…the stock is a s-9 which is much more rich , thus the s7 will lean it out so you may have to switch needle position, main jet , pilot jet and air screw Start with main jet :400 Pilot jet : 30 Needle clip :2nd position Air screw: 1.5 out I even got a a thinner needle but you probably won’t need that
@@MrSmokeingood but may I ask will that apply with all the modifications Ive done? V force reeds , hot rods crank , new piston , fmf gnarly pipe ECT? Also I did buy the JD jet kit for this and when it was getting rebuilt he put one jet from the JD kit I'm not sure what size but it seems to be to rich since day of the rebuild it's always all or nothing on the throttle and power band not hitting right sometimes, and I did get it to run last night with fresh gas and plugs but it's so rich and smoking so bad and it stunk extremely bad way worse than normal and black oil just spitting from the center of my pipe and silencer
@@kylekb8659 the s7 nozzle jet made the biggest difference for me I also have v force reeds, a pro circuit header and silencer with a wiseco top end, I puke start with that nozzle jet then go down from there, make sure all the parts you get for your carb are genuine Honda parts
@@MrSmokeingood Ever go riding with any quads or no only folks? I have a redone 86 Honda trx250r I was looking to ride. Just moved here from the East Coast... :)
@@Adam-Freemer what's up Adam I also moved here from the east coast...Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, if you're ever in my in area in California I'm totally down to go riding
@@Adam-Freemer not far at all! If you ever wanna met up.at Metcalf park in san jose let me know I'm a good tour guide...I've been here in California for about 6 years now I love it, couldnt imagine moving back to Pennsylvania, I'd be bored
@@MrSmokeingood I feel exactly the same with PA and I've been here about 3 weeks hehe. Walking outside every day with the weather, it would be hard to go back to the soup (although I think I might miss my winter / snowmobiling, so will probably be looking into going a bit north for trips). I'm working on my registration right now and have to pick up a trailer, but should be ready to roll soon. I think I'll take you up on that tour offer! Where could I contact you? I dont think you can DM here on youtube..
Sounds like she ran dry and Maybe the float in the carb is stuck now idk 🤷♂️ it’s happens. Put some new fuel in it tap on the carb or just take it off and clean it out and make sure the jets arnt clogged and the floats still operate correctly , should start no problem.
@@MrSmokeingood Thanks for responding. I've been drooling over those forever, but yours is the first 00/01 I've seen with them. Did the fit the upper curved part of the plastic well? Thanks.
I can’t remember for now I have a lectron but my set up was something like this . 30 pilot 420 main. Needle 3rd position and I swapped the stock s-9 needle jet with the s-7 needle jet
@@MrSmokeingood a 420 on a 2000 thank u for your time i have one and will throw it in when i get to my shop in the morning thanks for getting back to me
Try putting in a smaller main jet, sounds like you’re getting too much fuel during your power band. If it Boggs it’s too much fuel and if it pops and lacks power it needs more Fuel
