Started the restoration on my 1995 CR250. I’ve had it for about a year. Previous owner said it had been completely redone. You’ll see what that meant. Wish I had a pic from before I started taking decals off. It looked like someone was making it hideous on purpose. I know the finished product won’t hold a candle to some on here, but it will be slow going back together as it was a mess coming apart. Overspray everywhere. About half the hardware was wrong. All the usual stuff.

Pro Circuit pipe is a plus (after you take some paint stripper to it! YUCK!!!)
Nice bike none the less, can’t wait to see it finished.
Looks like you have the stock KYB forks. I recognize the the bulbous area where the seals go.
The bottom of your frame looked similar to mine with the crushed tubes. I used epoxy to fill. I have no idea if this will just vibrate off. I’m running a skid plate to protect that area.
My bike was more a reflection of the bare minimum in care. Fortunately no seized on bolts and the air box boot was pretty clean. Yours looks pretty good for the age so your fortunate.
These mid 90 steel framed just look fantastic after done. You appear to be well on that path.
Too bad Evo Mx no longer can sell graphic kits for Honda’s.
I look forward to seeing more of your rebuild.
