Whats up fellas ... just signed up here since the exriders site has declined in activity. Anyways, been around 250rs for longer than i can remember and still have my JP racing/CT 350r I built in 94. Haha kinda shows my age. Sadly enough , life got in the way in the last couple years and prevented me from riding and building as much as I wanted to. Its great to see we are all still keeping our passion for the r.

Welcome, great guys here and plenty of info. I'm new here also and have learned a lot about the R's so far. I used to have and race a lt250 back in the day. Your not that old, I quit racing in 94 and I was 33 then.

Welcome to the forum. We have many knowledgeable members here with years of riding and maintenance as well as performance experience. We are lucky to have Jerry Hall giving us advice on tuning with scientific backing on choice of motors, carbs and pipes. Parts have been discontinued and we all are looking everyday for options like 450r parts and things made out carbon fiber made at Fourwerks. Fullbore is expecting to make a run of plastics. If you want a set of new plastics you have to call and preorder to get your name on the waiting list.

Thanks for the info on the Fullbores. I'm actually needing at least 1 fresh set since my older blue ones are jacked.

Funny Neil, I guess I deserve that haha. Just went thru a very nasty divorce and custody battle for my bikes and other shit amidst recovery from a reoccurring injury. Otherwise, all is relatively well now and I'm still able to ride.

Whuee, man I see now, that was a bunch to deal with.

Do I remember right, you had a real bad crash good while back?, had pics up of the injurys.
