Description

Here we have my 2005 Honda CRF 250R in Enduro spec. I was looking for a reasonably priced competitive bike that I could use for practice at my local quarry and also do a few clubman Enduro's so I bought this CRF. I decided to go for a CRF 250 R as the X model's are quite a bit heavier and many people put the gearboxes and cams etc from the R model into the X. so I thought I would go the other way and spec an R model into an enduro bike which has worked fantastically. I wanted a HM Moto Honda. but couldn't afford one so decided to build my own !!The bike has recently had an engine rebuild. including a new 'Hot Rods' crank. 2 new steel inlet valves to replace the standard titanium valves. it's had a piston and ring and the cylinder is in great condition. i have done the valve clearances. it's had an oil service. new oil filter & spark plug. it has done approx 8 hours max in my ownership and the chap I bought it off had not run it since the engine rebuild. this was confirmed when I removed the cylinder head and the inlet valves were clean as a whistle. I have fitted a set of 2008 model forks and I rebuilt the forks with new seals and 5wt fork oil prior to fitting them. I have put a new and unused CR250 2004 rear shock which has the same stroke but a shorter shock mount at the bottom of the shock which has dropped the seat height by about 10mm without compromising the shock stroke which is great for pushing the bike in the technical stuff or if you are a little vertically challenged. I've added a CRF 450 flywheel which has given it more tractable low down drive and stops it from stalling at low speed. I have also altered the gearing by fitting a new 14 tooth Renthal front sprocket to make first gear more usable in the slower stuff. it's got a set of ASV unbreakable levers and perches which are ideal for enduro use. I have also fitted a set of Enduro Engineering hand guards. the ones with a solid metal bar which wraps around the levers and has a plastic roost guard which is removable. The hand guards are bomb proof and an excellent upgrade. it has a set of Renthal handlebars. some red coolant hoses and a red petrol filler cap. nbsp;The bike has been completely stripped and all bearings. shock linkage etc greased and lubricated as required. I have also fitted a front and rear light which are powered from a lightweight LiPo battery situated in the air box. the lighting circuit is separate to the rest of the electrics and I will include a charger for the battery with the sale. I have run the bike for only 2 practice sessions since it's completion and it's now offered for reluctant sale. Please note the bike has some scratches and marks consistent with age. it is however in good clean condition and it's mechanically sound. if you would like any further info or pictures please drop me a message or give me a call on 07720 549127.  Collection only. cash on collection preferred. I may be able to help with local delivery only after you have been. seen and paid for the bike in full. PLEASE NOTE. nbsp;I AM NOT INTERESTED IN SWAPPING THE BIKE AT ALL. I AM NOT DESPERATE FOR THE MONEY SO DON'T WASTE MY TIME AND YOURS WITH SILLY OFFERS. Thanks for looking.
