Post by tri675 »

Arite all picked my crm 250 up in Dec what a laugh ive retired my d675 for winter and have wanted this bike for 2 years its a 92 with a freshly blue powder coated frame and pulling bits off loads of new parts the power valve ect the sprockets/chain were balder than Kojak but renthal is 3 miles up the road and my mate works there (£40) how handy is that so new grips n bars as well.

I may have been a bit optimistic with 3 miles erm im in Ashton certainly gonna be off roading her it cant hurt my track days on the 675 gonna need new knobblys though its shod with distanzias they managed in the snow but some big grinning was done with slides on the ice-first job is all new stainless bolts everywher im an engineer in the food industry so i guess thats handy as well i like free n cheap.

Sounds like we like crms round here guess we have some top places to play with them im just taking the big dent out of the exhaust at the mo ive drilled in from the back and using rounded punches hammered it out and am tig welding a plate over the drill hole where it cant be seen then using halfords high temp glossy black to repaint dont know how it will look but it will be an improvement.
