Edited Date/Time:
So I grew up on a cr250, not even gonna lie and pretend like I know what year....I wanna say I was in about 7th or 8th grade which would be around 2002-2003.....anywho...i havent ridden in about 10 years and have been having the urge to grab a bike.
Now I remember how crazy I was on the 250 and I don’t think Im ready to jump straight back into that so I’ve been considering buying this project bike off a guy in my area.
It’s a 98 CR125.... just something for me to tinker with and throw around the yard.
As it stands the bike is mostly disassembled and all parts are claimed to be accounted for....for $650 it’s a steal
It does need a complete rebuild on the top and bottom ends, so I need to know what company I should go with for that, I’ve heard mixed reviews about wiesco and also about hot rods so if any one has first hand experience please share.
Also seeing as I’m going to be going through the bike bit by bit, basically as a novice 2stroke mechanic, can u guys give me some things to look for and possibly replace or upgrade
I know it’s got an fmf powecore 2 pipe, not sure of the exact exhaust, but I think the bike is mostly stock...that’s how I plan on treating it at least
