Bike will be sold with notorized bill of sale. There is no title.
1979 Honda CR250R Elsinore. Good overall condition. Bike runs good, shifts and stops. No leaks anywhere on engine. Cases have no visible damage. Aftermarket plastic tank with almost new Acerbis fenders. Seat foam is original and in excellent shape. Progressive, dual rate rear shocks are in excellent condition and not leaking. I do not know the spring rates, but they are the correct 17.5" length. Front fork tube chrome is excellent in the stroke range. There is some very slight surface rust between triples. Forks do need new seals. Fork lowers are actually in decent shape. No cracks or large gouged out areas. No broken pinch bolts and no stripped threads. Rear tire has decent tread left and does hold air. Front tire has very good tread, but does have sidewall cracks/dry rot....it does hold air though. Rear wheel is very straight and true. It has a Hallman 18" gold rim with heavy duty spokes. No cracks! But on the shifter/left side, has a number of scrapes or gouges in about a 12" section. Possibly from careless transportation or storage. Chrome on spokes is very good, niples have some surface rust. Front wheel is pretty straight and true. It is the original D.I.D. rim and there is a small flat spot and a small 3/8" crack. There is also some kind of chemical staining or discoloration in the anodizing. It looks like some kind of liquid was poured on rim. It's not terrible, but just want buyer to know. Original pipe is in really nice shape as far as dings and dents, or any cracks. It does have some tack or spot welds possibly from pulling a dent or maybe had some pin holes. Pipe metal is completely solid, no signs of rust through from the inside. Silencer is original, but has some good dents. Inside core and exhaust flow is straight and not affected by the exterior dents. Frame is straight. Subframe is not tweaked from being looped out. Bottom frame rails are not crushed, only minor ding under shifter area. Throttle is not stock. It's a whirlpool style that rolls smoothly and snaps back. Clutch feels very good and has a shorty lever. Front brake lever is an unbreakable lever from back in the day(uni lever I think) and has a slightly "mushy" feel. May be the lever or maybe needs a new cable. Bars are perfectly straight. Air box is original and it does have the original side door/panel. However, it has been previously repaired and it could probably use some attention, i.e...silicone or rtv. It does have a brand new accordion style air filter with attached rubber boot to carb, so it is sealed. It's a decent, solid, and complete(minus kickstand) bike. Will need very little to be track/trail worthy. Email me with any questions or if you want a picture of a specific area or part. Shipping is buyers responsibility. PayPal payment is due within 24 hours of auction end, OR, a $250 PayPal deposit within 24 hours of auction end with a USPS money order for the remainder mailed and received within 7 days of auction end. |

Pedrosa Staying with Repsol Honda Through 2016 MotoGP Season
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Honda has signed Dani Pedrosa to a two-year contract extension that will see the Spanish racer stay with its factory MotoGP team through the 2016 season. By the end of the contract, Pedrosa will have spent a whole decade racing for Honda in the premier class to go with another five seasons in the 125cc and 250cc classes. The signing follows a similar two-year contract extension for Pedrosa’s teammate, the reigning World Champion Marc Marquez while over in the Yamaha camp, Valentino Rossi also recently signed a two-year contract extension, making 2016 the year to watch for silly season drama.
Press launches - the ugly truth. Part 3
Sun, 03 Apr 2011So with an afternoon of sightseeing completed (a rare luxury on most launches) it's back to the hotel for the press conference. These are you usually long winded, tooth pulling affairs with Japanese technicians insisting on speaking their bestest engrish which only serves to elongate the proceedings. Nothing kills a presentation more than reading every word of a powerpoint slide verbatum, even thought the viewers can read exactly the same words (and probably a lot faster). The Crossrunner presentation was mercifully brief and snappy followed by dinner in the hotel and a reasonably early night as everyone had already been up for twenty hours.
A Different Bike Magazine
Thu, 12 Feb 2009Motorcycle Retro is a pet project of former Motorcyclist editor Mitch Boehm, launching as Motorcyclist Retro in early 2008 under the Source Interlink media umbrella. It featured a contemporary look at motorcycles of the 1960s through the 1980s. However, the circulation numbers of MR didn’t meet the expectations of the media conglomerate, and they cancelled production of the magazine after just two issues.
