Title: 1979-80 Honda CR250 Clutch Basket
Post by: HL500 on March 17, 2015, 03:28:05 pm

Does anyone have a good condition 79/80 Honda CR250 clutch basket for sale.  I have two but the gear teeth on both are a bit iffy and showing wear.  Is this a common thing with these?  Anyhow, I'd rather not use either and the after market stuff looks just like a basket replacement using my existing gear.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

You are right ;) The aftermarket ones use the original gear, I put a Mitaka one on mine, had to grind off the old rivets & fit new ones supplied in the kit, prick of a job, have not heard of the gear giving probs :)

At least with one of the gears I think some metal let go and pitted the gear.  If I have to, I will use that one. The other is showing parallel stress cracks on the drive side of the gear but it is unusual because the primary gear looks to be in really good condition.
