Retirement is rough, needed more things to keep me occupied. So, I went and purchased this 1997 CR250 basket case. $800 seemed like a decent deal, until I realized this thing is clapped out like the Indians did the Buffalo. 
Started getting it disassembled. It’s been “Power Washed”, every bearing is a dried out rusty mess.
Dropped the frame, swingarm, and sub-frame off at powder coat this morning. Mardi says, “What are you doing, Crazy Man”?

I’m in need of a 1992-2001 Stator side engine case.
Good score will be following! I too am retired and also building a 97 purchased as roller. Gonna shove 97 500 in it and do the Elsinore kit .

Looking at wheel sets. I’m really digging Gold Excels. Don’t want too much black.
