here is my 84 roller which I brought from Ims6201 as a super project
(http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd117/fenno264/kidsandbikes005.jpg)
this has been on going since last christmas. I brought a engine (as it didnt have one) from the US ebay and it still hasnt arrived.
A mate was importing it for me through a friend of a friend deal. My fear is that it will never arrive so I may need to start searching for a complete bottom end and electrics (got a top end).
I should know within a month or so if Im up the creek without an engine.
so if any one has bits they dont want I may need them.
I will be at ACT Heaven round 6 in 2 weeks hope to shead some light on my situation then
keep you posted

This is sitting at penrif MC wreckers for $1800, looks to be very original and all there, and it runs fine too.

Hey E74, Thanks for the heads up I have contacted them and have now bought it.
They wanted to know how I seen the photo's do you know the blokes there?
Attached is shot of the 2 I have now that we race in Queensland will be restoring this one to add to collection as the 84 is our favourite bike to ride.

You have my old 250RZ (from Cammeray) but it looks like you have been busy since that acquistion.
Nice work mate

I was scunging around Penrith wreckers looking for a 32 hole YZ rim and stumbled across her, was real tempted at $1800 but I just bought an absolute mint one off Big K, I had my new iphone on me so I photographed it and posted it on the forum straight from my phone... :o
-
There you go E74 they say that pro lever suspension was modern :D :D
Thanks again mate

well got my engine but it was damaged in transit

-
G`day Simon, got spark yet?
-
Snowy got spark, slight clutch problem and cant seem to glue that crack up in the clutch cover
I think that i have an 83 push rod but will hopefully fix that by sunday
I ran it in today felt like a little boy again riding in me flanny with helmet and boots
check it out all clean and blinged

alas its now stripped in the back of my van until I short out the clutch
but im not giving up, whats another few hours on it I have already put in excess of 120hours labour,boy are these time magnets
-
but it looks so good i like the black rims i have two 84 250s one that ive had from new and one that im colecting parts for very nice work
-
I have to say, that the 84 CR250 with black rims is the finest looking pre 85 motocross bike. I had mine stolen 12 years ago and would love it back now!
-
looks great Simon just like a new one. where did you get the fork boots, what brand & length are they?
cheers
