This thread belongs in a book. I would, without hesitation, love to have this in a hard cover book on my coffee table for me to glaze and appreciate until the end of time. Unbelievable. Thank you for the latest updates.

The HRC front number plates are not symmetrical. The upper right hand corner has a different shape than the other three and the sides are not parallel. Also, the Japan factory team was still putting on stick on vinyl numbers on solid backgrounds at least until 2001. I am not sure when they started using fully printed number plate backgrounds. Throttle Jockey is the only mx graphics company that has the template for the HRC front number plates as they made the graphics for the US Honda factory team. Unfortunately, these trick parts will remain hidden, but HRC used a...

This shot is a good example of how few parts are shared with or would even bolt onto a production CR without a lot of other special parts to make it work. The HRC magnesium hub requires different offset wheel spacers and uses a wider than production 36 spoke rim. I always thought it out of place that HRC anodized the wheel spacers green as if they were trying to draw your attention to all the special parts on the machine. The rear sprocket is specially machined by Renthal to fit the factory hub. The hub requires a special 6-bolt...

It has been a full 7 years since I started out intending to build a 2000 Japan RC250M replica but ended up finding enough parts to come close to recreating the original factory machine, short of the engine internals (which I convinced myself would be pointless for a bike that would never be ridden and the parts impossible to see). Nevertheless, for this final round of updates (time to close out this project), I did manage to pick up a few more HRC parts and totally dismantled the bike for a final rebuild to ensure every nut and bolt was...

Been a while since I’ve updated, recently had the carbon fiber front disc guard arrive after a very, very lengthy wait. Also a few extra pieces of Ti for engine mount bolts. Main thing left to do is kashima coat fork tubes and A kit shock housing. This will most likely happen once my little Honda Z50j project is complete. Bike is currently taking pride of place in my living room whilst the build has been progressing on the Z50j

I’m pretty sure he bought it from this guy. It’s not the differential bore caliper Honda uses but it looks like the other design with the same size pistons. I’m not sure where he’s sourcing them.

Am I crazy? Tomac was doing the triple from the inside for multiple laps before Jett did. Once Jett did, JT immediately said he’s found something to one up Tomac, doing the triple from the inside.

Good stuff thanks. Here's something for your efforts. Be careful she's a gas hog!

Ever hear of Dale Earnhardt?

workin on a clutch cover fits okay, but I’m going to change a couple things to blend it better, then I’ll coat it and engrave it with something! v2 incomin!
