Hello everybody,
Just a little presentation. My name is Eric, 41 years old, I'm living in France.
I'm in the ATV since my 15 years old. Racing during 10 years in MX and endurance (like 12h of Pont de Vaux, a famous race in France where a lot of US pilots have coming). And after I completely stop racing and ATV during some years
But my current bikes was still waiting on the garage:
2000 Honda 400ex modded for Race
2007 Honda 250er modded for Race
2 month ago, I bought a 88 250R. It was a dream since a long time but now started the most difficult and pleasant phase in the same time.
Bike if full stock with everything to rebuild. I don't have historic of this bike, but it certainly had another motor and come back with 250r.
frame has many welds, like the swingarm, case center has a crack... So just perfect
So I'm here to exchange et finds informations for my rebuild. Objective is to make an MX bike that will be enough well rebuilt to participate to some races in vintages class. So extended a-arms, axle, good suspension... for the motor close to stock and I will see after if I have the opportunity to find a nice top end
Like I said at the beginning, I'm from France. It's really difficult to find parts here or only in bad shape for the majority. So I start to enter in contact with guys selling parts in US, I check ebay and facebook 250r US groups.
I have already ordered a gusset kit from Tony, and some others parts on Ebay US...
It will be a long road before the first start, but it's really cool
Eric
