I think I'd try tapping them and cleaning out the threads. If that doesn't work weld new ones on.

If the threads is bad and the gods is thin, weld it
if the gods is thick, tap in helicoils and it's even stronger than before

I think that ignitioncover even fit from 84-01 but that's a guess
So do you think we can work something out to get some ignition covers made?

Yeah those are pretty cool but still not the same. I may have found one in England. Waiting for the guy to get back to me. bd says he has one too but he hasn't emailed me back.

bd, if you read this, email me when you get a chance.

Does anyone out there happen to know where I can find a 92-96 CR250 Stock Pipe that is in perfect shape?

Is anyone still interested in a sand cast ignition cover for the 1987 CR250R? At one time I had one of these for restoration, but it proved to be one too many projects. I still have this cover and some other parts : new plated PC pipe, NOS foot pegs, NOS radiator cap etc.

I know it will be pricey but I do not think Honda has discontinued them yet, the OEM Pipes that is, or you can try to contact every person with one of those bikes for sale and ask if they still have the stock pipe sitting around, it worked for my 01 RM. Ebay too, even if it's not in good shape there are many pipe repair places that could fix it for you paint and all.

Yeah I tried that on a few ads but it was tough telling them I didn't want their bike just a pipe if they had one laying around. I'll try a few more I guess.

that 96 mc replica is the berries.
this is the same era that I want to build 93-96.
Are alot of the parts interchangeable on these years?

I was reading ahrma's post vintage rules and it looks like the cut off date is early middle 80's. No long travel or disc brakes. Is there anywhere to race this era of bike?

Once again, hell of a job on that bike.

Thanks eagle! I'm building a 93 right now. Pretty much all the parts are the same. The motor is pretty much the same from 92-01 except minor porting and ignition changes. I rode the 93 in the disco class at some EVO races. It is a really short bike and it handles really quick. The 96 is a lot longer but still handles good and is more stable. I'm going to be selling my 93 when I finish it. I'll post some pics soon.

I'm just gonna turn this one and try to make a couple bucks so I'm painting the frame, re-zinc plating the hardware, putting a 19" rear wheel on it, etc. I got it pretty cheap so I couldn't pass it up. It is a really low time bike and will be a perfect example of a 1993 CR250. At first I was going to build this bike into what my 96 is since everyone says it is the best handling model CR but it would be hard to use it with the 06 CRF250 forks. So it will have stock forks and shock with stiffer springs and lower oil height just like MXA recommends. The head tube on the 92-94 is not as tall so it needs a shorter steering stem and smaller bearings.

Explains why mc loved that 93 geometry so much for sx.
Didn't know they changed the dimensions so much in that 4 year span.
Had the 125 & 250 96's and loved them both.

Hi, just found this thread and I will be following along closely. I also need the covers you are looking for.

nine1seven,
Very nice looking 96. Funny, I found this thread by recognizing your bike on a google image search. We have a thread going in thumpertalk right now about the graphics for the 96 cr250 mcgrath replica. The guy that you sold your extra set to has been helping us.

I am currently doing exactly what you mentioned, I started with a 1993 cr250 and am building it up as close as I can to McGrath's 1996 specs.
