My point here is one thing...$1,800 got me burning laps again!
im not a total honda fanboy (i have owned a few suzukis) but there is no denying these bikes are built great....id reccomend anyone who is trying to get into racing to buy a cr125 or cr250....cheap, reliable and DAMN FUN.
2003 CR250 ; J&D Jetting Air Stryker, 50/50 C-12/pump gas, Rad valve, 10 oz flywheel weight, FMF SST pipe & shorty have been installed since this photo was taken.
Runs great, no more re-jetting when the sun goes behind a cloud, & it seems to rev a bit further now.
Get your suspension done for your needs.
Amaze your four-stroke riding buddies with your newly acquired cornering speed.
have fun!
how is the SST pipe?? i really like my stocker but will be doing the Kehin PWK and since I already have a shorty silencer i wanna change it up. does it take away alot from the low-end??
right now im rocking a stock engine with the excetion of vforce reeds. when the stars are aligned, it runs really good but the mikuni is a piece of dogshit that can appear to be running rich but feel like its running lean
im not really into hot rod bikes..im all about usability and ease of riding..which is why i like this bike because it doesnt hurt hard down-low..its more or less a 125 on steroids IMO. slow bikes are faster!
The flywheel weight smooths it out, & helps with the over-rev.
I don't like hard to ride hot-rodded motors either. Smooth & easy to ride is my goal. Race gas seems to make it run a bit nicer, as well.
To answer your question, I think the SSt with a shorty actually helps out the bottom.
You want the right gearing for the riding you do, & chassis set-up is critical for good handling, imo.
Oh, it likes fresh spark plugs as well; more crisp.
The next thing on my to-do list is to have the cylinder cut to correct the squish. After that, I may send out my other motor for the Gorr treatment....not sure how big to go though.
Pit Row
Very grainy & crappy cell phone pics. This bike is mint.
BTW I LOVED the hotrod motor you could bring that bike WAY inside on a tight track and pull jumps 2nd pinned out of the corner most had to do in 3rd, that is if you were on the clutch but the overrev that bike had is unmatched from any bike I've ridden since and I regret selling my 02.... even worse I sold it to buy an 04 crf450, I got along with that bike pretty well but it was never the same till I picked up my RM's a couple years ago.... In 05 they tweaked the angle of the rc valve and it helped.
Had Enzo set up my suspension, the shock is $, the forks took a while to get use to. They seem to push through the travel easy, not very progressive. Gonna give them back and see what they can do.
These bikes are gold, I think, that's why I wanted another. They are almost free! Each one cost me $1,800.
Love my '03, not much down low, but the thing is bulletproof.
