Thank you for the invitation Michael. Sorry that I am late but screwing off takes a lot of time.
Here are a few pics of the red bike that you ask about. It still has a few minor items that need attending to but should be done soon.
It is pictured beside it's 3 year older cousin just to show them in their recent state, with the parking meters that the asshol... I mean alien speaks of, which were stolen from the man cave.
Many thanks to the moto Picasso Mr. & Mrs. Newmann, FTE and even to the asshol.. I mean alien.

Well, it does look a tad bit better than what he started with! Between his painter and his machinist that thing turned into quite an "investment". My retirement planning is fairly aggressive and not always wife approved.....LOL. It does however make for good conversation over a cold beer.Wink

Speaking of, when are we getting a ride report on those turned down works replica 83 CR250 lower fork legs with kitted 87 uppers and cartridge internals? And what does she weigh with all that hand fabbed aluminum and titanium?

Sadly it will be next Friday or Saturday before it gets dirty. I have several other commitments between now and then.
This everyday life gig is really hindering my wannabe life.....

I understand however that a solution is in the prototype stages.

Thank you for the kind words Cam and Steve, very much appreciated.
While Joe's investment advice has not done my retirement fund any good I could not have done this
project without his help and especially his paint skills. Again, much appreciated.
Our good friend Mr. FTE pitched in as well.
Machinists make shitty restoration guys sometimes. Let's just hope it all works right!

Bike looks great! Amazing detail.

That appears to be a really nice survivor that was cut up for it tho. The OG gods are frowning. Cool

The only piece removed from og frame was bulbous lower roller mount.
If you think the OG gods are pissed now wait until those butt licker holes see what has happened to a nice 80 model to stuff a 480 into it. LOL.

Not only am I his investment advisor, I'm also his enabler.....Laughing Also helps in keeping my machinist on retainer.

The 80 model CR250 rolling chassis was one of the lowest hour CR250's I had ever seen. Had been stored at a Honda dealer since about 1981 with a torched engine. Engine was gone, but the roller was sweet. Some serious horse trading between numerous parties to get these things to the finish line sometimes.

Thank you Mr. Scottie Dawg, I admire yours as well, you are always polite and to the fuggn point. My style is all about laughing, even if it is at myself, which is something that a lot of these local assholes cannot seem to dodo.

If my memory serves me correctly, Mr. Joe Show, some of that plastic is now on a certain very rare Honda RC, correctamundo?
