MK3s finished and the plan was completely strip the mk2 and give her a full wheels up as brand new build but with some careful thought i was thinking i could pass on bits of the strip and build on here im going to do it as cheap as i can IE the frame will be hammerite smooth aerosol and im fairly well clued up on all things electrical and mechanical so plan on passing on tips or fixes as i go including pics but not to Knackerereds lengths my budgets £200 knowing the engines a good en if this is to continue any thoughts or more details please ask or add.

As i say wont be super detailed but ill do all the ground work to keep the budget low and log all the places i find the build time is 2 months (ish lol)

I wanted to do the same with mine, spendin around 200 quid for bits. Musta spent more like 800!!! Lol. An its nothin special, but included shock service, tyres, bearings, chain an sprox, etc etc. It really was a big pile of poo when i got it

thats what ive just done with my 89' cr250 mate, if youre going to strip the frame before you paint it i used graffiti remover to strip the old efforts of the previuos owner and also any grease and oil, it works great and i got it for a quid a tin off the local market, it will also work on plastics without damaging them

tri675 - Can you put your rebuild into the 'Motards/Specials' section please. I'm asking Admin to change the name to - 'Motard/Specials/Rebuilds' so we get all these together and it's obvious to forum members.

Look forward to posts .

Will do Knackered, Im lucky twisted ive a mate at Renthal 4 miles up the road to the factory and use of a full machine shop at work so costs will come down.
