Title: atc250r duner project.....
Post by: fourtrax on November 06, 2013, 08:04:09 AM
Hello.....I wanted to start a thread about my little duner project..  I looked for quite a while, found this one.....tons of parts and tires for 400...Wanted to start from scratch..

The plastic is all good, no cracks....I polish aluminum in my spare time so I finished some parts up..

I scored a cascade waterpump cover and stator cover....

I went over the parts to check and see if they are good....got 2 sets of forks...lucky I got a good set...... the one has .002 runout and the other .005 compared to .017 and .077 yikes...


The original frame had some rot that I didn't want to deal with so I ended up finding a really clean frame........sandblasted it and powdercoated it, this is columbia coatings super mirror red....I am really happy with it...

Those are some good looking parts you are restoring.  I am betting you spend quite a bit of time in front of the polishing wheel. Looks to be a pretty good deal with 2 motors and all. What dune tire were you going to run on the 10" wheel?
Title: atc250r duner project.....
Post by: fourtrax on November 06, 2013, 09:08:18 AM
Thanks Pumashine..... I'm about polished out to be honest...I was going to try a mohawk style front tire and ss2's in the rear..

No doubt I will try to keep this updated....
Got my swingarm and hubs back.....
I bought a new lsr axle...not chrome like they used to be...bummer
My camera fell in hands of a 1 yr old this week...sorry about the blurry lens and black mark at bottom left.
My ss2's don't look right, I have to try a wider wheel..

You are supposed to have a 10" wide rim I believe. All my 6 sets are on 8" rims and look the same as yours. So...they look normal to me. :topsy_turvy:

I put the ss2's on some 10x10s and the rims stuck out maybe a half inch......some maybe 10x9's will be a happy medium

Very nice score.  You have that thing looking like new already.  I am always looking for a 85-86 trike.  They are always too high though.  Although I know where there is a complete roller for 600.  I'll be wathing this build!

Well, its always going to take a few dollar bills.....only need a few parts..it was good because the major parts that are missing I am going to buy new anyway...crank, piston


I look for the best prices and buy used when I can get away with it.....

Post by: fourtrax on November 25, 2013, 11:45:28 AM
Ok so I am ready to take a real inventory of my engine and its parts..The cases need a few spot welds and painted as well as the drain hole needs fixed..  I sent my counter balancer to GT thunder and they put a new bearing on for me.. I need a crank and it looks like the bottom can go together.. I want a fresh bore and piston so that will follow...a water pump too..  I have put so many of these motors together its fun at this point..  I have all new seals and gaskets. the clutch and stator are the special rubber coated ones from cometic..  I am wondering if the parts I have are the updated clutch parts, does anyone know a way to tell??

Your back wheels look a lot like the old school DICO's I have on my R & my rim's stick out about 1/2" on each side of the tire too with 10x10 wheels & 20x10x10 haulers. If your rears are DICO's, thats just the way there made. If your wheels are DICO & you don't like the look of the wheels & want to sell or trade them let me know.

I was refering to the wheels, they look like DICO's.... I wish I could find a good set of skate 2's here for that price. A buddy of mine just got a set for 40 & they were trashed.

Yes, you have the flat spherical bearing at the end of the push rod. That means its the 89 version.

Well warmed up a bit and was able to do a little work..I wanted to share something that was kinda funny... I needed to find some bearings for my stock chain rollers because they looked really good still and I wanted to use them. The bearing size is the same as a skateboard and rollerblade bearings...608's. Anyway I found a set of 8 bearings for 3.84 shipped to my HOUSE. This is 2 sets the sheilds are red too....the little bracket got painted..cleaned up the bolts..

I installed my lock nut on the axle....it seems the threaded sleeve is a tad short, it looks like the 85 version is different.  The one I have is 30mm wide, if someone reads this and has a trx sleeve lying around....can you measure it for me?? thanks

Post by: fourtrax on April 18, 2014, 06:16:37 PM
Update, I'm working on the cases currently...needed a spot weld  or two several new bearings and a bead blasting and paint. The cases should go together in a week or two. I am boring my cylinder to 87mm with new wiseco. I scored a nice low hour crank.  One of my biggest problems has been finding a shock shaft in good order...rusty, rusty. I am going to send one to the west coast and have one ground and rechromed. I have plans to buy a new radiator after seeing how cheap they are. More updates asap..

So I've been buffing on my tank for 2 weeks it seems...I'm to the point that I am happy. I used 600 grit and wet sanded..then used a 6" bottet in my drill with chrome polish, mothers polish and some car polish turned out much better than I ever thought possible..topped it off with a new cap and bam!!

Can you reach it there? Seems like it would be hard to get to.
Title: atc250r duner project.....
Post by: fourtrax on July 20, 2014, 02:58:53 PM
Hey Steve Man...I measured and did a bit of fitting first. You can reach in and kill it pretty easy, the second hole down on shroud. I'll post some pics, I just put the switch down there because I thought it was cool to kind of hide it. If anyone likes the hardware I got them from probolt..
Title: atc250r duner project.....
Post by: The_Steve_Man on July 20, 2014, 03:20:53 PM
I looked at the pic better and saw where it was mounted.  I looked at mine and realized you could reach it through the shroud.  
Very cool idea!  I like it. 👍

I am really liking this build.......really sharp!  Always liked the 85-86's just never pulled the trigger on one yet.

Thanks for all the kind words..Have been scoring some nice parts lately post some pics soon. Cylinder is at the shop getting bored. My list of needed parts is getting shorter and shorter..after I'm done I'll be sort of bummed because I've really enjoyed this build.

Scored some really nice billet rear hub nuts from a member..if you look closely you may see another nut!! Installed some time cert sleeves in my frame...they had been oversized to an sae size, no thanks. I made some air inlets out of aluminum I'm happy with how they came out. Some really nice parts should be coming this week, stay tuned!

I just put my top end together, hoping to do a leakdown test this weekend. I bought a noss maching rear brake master cylinder resi, this is a very nice part....takes the stock seal and plastic thing. Many more updates this week!

Put my top end together and it passed a leak test! Got the rest of my hardware for my rear brake, rebuilt my water pump. Found a very nice wiring harness on ebay. Everything is wired and almost ready to go!

I wanted to rebuild my fuel valve but the honda diagram doesn't break  it down into parts.. If you look at the trx diagram you will find that the valve is broke down and you can order the internal seal. You can see the part number in the picture.

I've bought so many new parts  that I haven't posted pictures of and I'm sorry about that. The deals that I have got on ebay have been really awesome....my chain and sprockets I really scored on. I got a renthal r1 chain new in the box for $38 shipped, and a sidewinder rear tool steal sprocket for $32 shipped!

So, I have bought many parts since my last post.....rear grab bar from rpm, spark arrested  fmf silencer(had to for the dunes), Nelson Precision Machine exhaust mounts (which are VERY nice), scored a trinity billet case saver/sprocket cover....also I figured out that most of these radiator cap cover for a honda civic will fit our bikes! I bought a used paul turner high rev pipe that I'm having a dent repaired on currently. Tested my compression, it tested out to 180psi....going to run race gas just to be safe. I have been searching around for a nice kick starter and finally found one...it had the factory plug still in it and is barely worn inside...This bike will be started very soon!! Enjoy!!

Amazing job all around! Your work on that tank stands out most to me. I cleaned up a tank using a headlight refurbish kit thinking I was the man with half the shine. Yours looks like glass, thanks for stating your process.

Got my new seat foam in the mail today! My base and foam is off to ol' Boring, Oregon! I also got my shock shaft back...had it ground and chromed. Sent it out to Gary's grinding in Corona, Cal., they did a great job....95 bucks... Going to send it out and have it rebuilt..seal head, re-valve and charge. Put a new bumper on it....my compression knob looked really crappy, I didn't want to anodize it or polish or chrome....so...I used some of this spray rubber coating...it turned out really nice.

This shock shaft has been a pain in the rear...had a hard time finding one without the rust. Then most the suspension shops don't offer the service...well race tech will for 249.00, I believe they send it to the same place i did. I called baldwin and I talked to the shop fella...the guy in charge I'll say.. He treated me poorly and talked down to me...I told him about needing it re-chromed and who was going to going to do it.... He wanted me to send him my whole shock.. I told him what I was quoted  for the re-chrome and he said it was awful cheap...Like he wanted to skin me, had no time for my questions and he like an ass said, Oh this is how I make money...then started talking about how much better his atc's  are, and he was.. Soooooo I sent it out myself....Everyone just said to buy a works, I wanted to keep the stock shock, its a solid unit..

if you don't mind me asking, where did you find that seat foam? is it 85 or 86? thanks
Title: atc250r duner project.....
Post by: JesseA420 on March 11, 2015, 07:30:45 AM
call hi-flite/ceet. they will make u a foam for any model, in any foam density. i am having a 88-89 trx foam made right now out of soft density foam.

ps they have the nicest lady that answers the phone, it was extremely refreshing :)

your atc looks amazing, nothing worse that crappy customer service. cant wait to see it finished and rippin.

Post by: fourtrax on March 11, 2015, 12:32:07 PM
Well its sort of a mess..hi/flight just merged with ceet.. the guy I talked to said you have to use the cover they make, even for the regular foam, talked to someone else and they said the regular Hi/flight foam is the 85 foam.. So...I called cascade and I sent the whole shittery to them! They will make me a great cover for the foam however tall it is.. What I'm saying is I'm not sure you can buy a hi/flight foam and use a different cover, unless its custom..

Post by: fourtrax on March 12, 2015, 10:05:14 PM
I'm using pattern HF09D, follow the link to cascades site...its going to be mostly blue,  with red and white stripe...should be killer.
