Recovered frame (part 2)
it has another look now, there yes it is bright white, I let it pack since reassembly is not yet planned, I am waiting to move and anyway I have not recovered all the parts, so storage for later.
sorry no work on the bike for a few weeks, I have to move to a new house and a new workshop.
I wish you a very happy new year 2020 and my best wishes.
The Shop
To test, but I think it will do the job, compared to the old original hoses which may no longer be very tight.
So rectify the needle and it starts again. see to have the red screw re-anodized.
Small arrival of parts for the 250 CR today, it is always a pleasure even if it is not much.
You can see there a HotRods crankshaft which is logically sold for the 250 CR from 92 to 2001, but after information taken, it turns out that the HotRods (probably other brands too and OEMs) are compatible with the 90/91 ( see even since the 86) so I wanted to check for myself, the vilo of my engine being nickel I will either keep this one in case I have a problem one day and since it will become a rare commodity (it it's been a while since it was not in stock) or resell it. or in the last case I mount it direct, I don't know anything yet.
Then for the handlebars you know it I like the gray handles grips (and if you do not know it now it is done) to make connection with the air box and the future protections of fork and disc in gray also as in the era of factory Honda RCs, and to finish the piece "Vintage" by excelence, the front fender stiffener, I had that on almost all my motorcycles in the 80s, so this is also a little reminder of the past .
I don't know yet what my motorcycle will look like after reassembly, I have only a vague idea, but I hope that it will turn heads in the paddock with fractures of the retina of the eyes
they are the same
And som money🤣
looks great!!
So not much, a key for the clutch because I have the vise grip made for but I do not like to use it too much, it is more stable and for the price I do not care to make it a.
The good hose to connect the tank to the carburetor, being the wrong size last time, a can of filter oil (very good I use it since 2010) and finally a small part made in Racetech for my rear shock absorber , for those who know
this bike will make me sleep on the street
Pit Row
I just bought a house with a garage to make it my workshop and it is here that I will start again the work on this motorcycle, once I would have done the work of fitting out the workshop
your garage is nice, I like the old look, it's authentic
not much new since, it's still on stand-by, but I received a bag of Pro Circuit stickers for temperature control and the shock spring preload nuts.
it doesn't take much to be happy, as Balou would say
confinement Covid-19 requires and not the possibility of going to do the work of my new house and workshop (15 km therefore prohibited, I would have to be within 2 km)
suddenly I do not advance on the restoration since I have no place to work, the bike is completely in pieces so in the boxes it does not take up space.
I therefore finished covering the radiator fins, since it was not found in new ones, unless I found a model of another motorcycle that could be mounted on it.
and some pictures from before
This is the 1st part, so as not to make the video too long which can make you want to zap.
I am super interested in how you used the heat gun to bring the shine to the tank. I am trying to get the shine back on a airbox. I believe the sanding is all done. Any tips on using heat? Videos? Anything would be much appreciated...
