Thanks guys . Going to be a long week, curious to see the difference between this bike and my 03 cr250 conversion. I will find out next weekend!

rjt500 · Post by **rjt500** » May 16th, 2011, 5:01 am

No, when i had it apart for the engine rebuild I stripped the paint off with paint remover.

Awesomeness!!
Rads, where did you come across those?

rjt500 · Post by **rjt500** » May 17th, 2011, 5:16 am

Thanks guys. Took it out saturday for the first ride, short ride but worked awesome. The radiators i bought off ebay, I believe it was a company out of washington. Had to alter all the outlets as well as the bottom tank on the left rad for the pipe. Then with them being oversize they rubbed on the oversize gas tank, had to reform that a little as well.

Nice build rjt. I am amazed at the differences in frame clearance between your 450 and my 250F. Specifically the cross member down in the footbox area. I literally had to lift engine out of mounts to get enough clearance to install bolt in shifter. And I used the newer CR 250 shifter to boot!!

I am guessing the 450 is a bit wider across at the footpeg.

Thanks.

I am in love. That is one sexy horse..... Good retro indeed...

There seems to be a bit more room with the 450 frame, even comparing it to my 03 cr250 conversion, it looks like it was shoehorned in compared to the 450.

Thanks, 4z

Where did you get the plastic and graphics? The bike looks great!

qazwert · Post by **qazwert** » May 18th, 2011, 4:47 pm

did you mean to tilt the motor down that much?

rjt500 · Post by **rjt500** » May 19th, 2011, 4:58 am

Thanks, lug nut. The plastics and graphics I bought off ebay, pretty hard to find as One Industries does not make the kit anymore .

The motor angle just worked out to be what it is. It actually mimics the same angle as my 03 cr250 build, that frame you are able to bolt into the stock cr250 bottom engine mounts.
