Iv been collecting parts for over awhile now and am finally ready to start the build that's been completed in my head for years. Although i'm not too keen on the front fender and plate, I feel that the 2002 hondas where the most progressive looking bike ever made and set the standard cosmetically for MX bikes to this day. I found this clapped out 250 on craigslist and decided to pull the trigger.



Time to frame it.



A little acid and alot of srubbing, its time to officially start the build

Started out by bolting the pegs on because these billet ti mounts by Racetech are a thing of beauty and i could't wait to see the ti Raptor pegs mounted to them using ti pins and bolts, also by Racetech.



The forks are 2011 or 2012 team issue honda forks and i was told they originally belonged to Kevin Windham. I have a set of raw Xtrig clamps off of Cole Seelys 2014 TLD bike but I have a hard on for anno red clamps so i decided to go with these brand new discontinued RG3 clamps I had sitting on a shelf.

Finally getting the front end together! I got a set of complete wheels from DUBYA, typically iv always laced my own wheels but with the price of the Talon carbon fiber hubs alone it was more feasible to just buy complete. I went with Galfer for the oversize rotor kit and the Ride engineering caliper is mounted up with more ti from Docwob.

The design and chassis are a timeless piece, I wish they never stopped making them, Honda needs to just reprint the 07 ffs, give it to us, the public is showing we want them back on the showroom floor again, just get it over with already Honda!
