New graphics CRF250

Red 250 · Jun 17, 2008

Well I got tired of the same old look so I bid on a set of graphics on Ebay... I know bad idea but it worked out well and the material is top class. Got them from West Coast Graphics.. Great service and product. So anyway I put them on myself I had never done it before but dove right in.It worked out well and I am happy with the result Here are some pics of the finished product

Let me know what you think.... Thanks.......................Red

I think your chain has been needing to be oiled for a while now.

Red 250 · Jun 18, 2008

Actually it doesnt even though it looks like it. The dirt in the area I ride in is red in color so it looks like it is rust.. If you look at the last picture you will see that it is only the plates that are brown or red. The rollers are clean,,,I use a spray on chain lube and the dirt sticks to it. I do plan on cleaning and re lubing before my next ride...

Nice and Clean Bike, i liked the graphic and the red endcaps :)
mmm mybe you just need to add number plates (black backgrounds and red numbers) it's too white in that area.

Cabot · Jun 18, 2008

Okay. It looks like a pretty clean bike, except the chain.

I have the same rear fender graphic.
Those endcaps do look really good!

Yeah I agree, you need some backgrounds. You should also get some inserts for the PMBs, they make a good bit of difference and look cool too!http://www.dirtrider.net/gallery/showimage.php?i=3715&c=3&userid=77507

Thanks for the replys .. I am planning on getting some number plate graphics to match soon. I am unsure about the numbers though. I don't race and mostly ride trails so I am unsure...I really like the look of the bike with them but don't know if its appropriate if I don't race.
Ok Joe you got me what are PMB's ..LOL total noob here so fill me in ... Are they inserts or caps in the engine?? Sorry I'm clueless..............Thanks again for the input.............Red

Thanks. I still haven't gotten the number plate backgrounds yet but as soon as I have some cash. I crashed about 3 weeks ago and the graphics held up really well. Nothing hurt but a few scrapes and trail rash. I really like the way it changed the looks of the bike. IMHO it looks so much better than the stock graphics. Thanks for the comment....................Red

Ooops. I missed your post a while back. The "PMB's" are those red endcaps in your silencers. As they are now they are only serving as spark arrestors on your bike, but they make inserts that bolt to those end caps to reduce the sound level. They make a good bit of difference, especially from a distance as they direct the sound down instead of up.

Nice. Those graphics look legit!

Magic-Man-150 · Sep 5, 2008

those look awsome, way better than the stock which every other person with a honda has, gotta get some cool ones like that

Yeah I have them I just took them out. I don't think they make a huge difference on the sound issue and I figured less restriction is better. Am I wrong to think that??? Thanks again for the input...And I agree about the poser thing. I dont race so.... I really like the look of the bike as it sits but may add the backgrounds when the fundage is better. Thanks again....................Red

I think my bike is stupid loud. Even with the inserts I feel like an ass when I get out with people on 2-strokes and trail bikes. I couldn't tell a difference in power from stock. I wish someone would sell a stock "x" muffler for cheap.

The only time I notice my bike being really loud is when I start her up in the garage. (Yes I have the big door open ) LOL
I know when I ride with my 2 stroker buddy's I can hear their bikes over mine so I think they are louder than me but you never know what it sounds like to them either. yeah I am not sure that I have had any power gain from taking them out either.
"Stupid Loud" that's great.... Red
