1995 cr 250

[mxrider76]

I was talking with one of my dads friends about possibly going riding and ya then he told me about a cr 250 basket case he was willing to give me. He bought it thinking it needed a top end but it needed a new crank. So far some of the engine parts are missing like carb and a lot of hardware. some parts are at his shop and some are at his house. He said needed $500 in parts 5 years ago when he pulled it apart. Is it even worth putting the frame back together? Is this a nice year for a cr? I want to work on it but it looks like it is in a state of no return.

This is a project that only the true of heart can do. It waill be comsuming most of your time and is fun. I have a friend that did the same thing with a 1994 CR125. It was missing the hole top end(including cycender) and the carb. But if you have time and money i would definataly go for it. Besides it was a good year for the CR.

is that all it needs is engine work? if everything else is in good shape then id say its worth it.

I'd be interested the rolling chassis :).

ok the frame is bare, half of the frame parts are missing, engine case has jb weld on it and the cases are split, has broken spokes, forks are trashed, I dont really want it. I will prolly just buy a running 2t if I want

In that case i would not take it but that is just me. If you like working on them then go for it.
