CR250M
« on: July 16, 2013, 03:19:28 pm »
Hey guys,

Like a fish out of water here.
I am finally going to finish off a bike that the late Bruce McF started. He was working on it as a pre 75 ride for himself, but sadly never got to finish it.

Anyway, the rolling chassis is mostly there. I will be installing my own race motor out of my cr250m that i used to race in pre 75.

I am after a parts manual for the chassis that has part numbers etc, as the bike is missing some bolts/nuts, the swingarm bolt doesn't seem long enough etc etc.
Also, who or where is a good source for these chassis parts? Anyone locally?
Being that Bruce used mostly original bolts etc that he had, i will try and go down that path first.
So far it is a nice looking bike, he had done a great job.

Any help (pdf - manuals / parts manuals, parts sources) is most appreciated.

Cheers, Adrian

I have hard copies of parts & service manuals and a small amount of NOS chassis parts. You could go to www.motogrid.com to look them up yourself. It's a good site for the big 4 orientals.

Heres a swingarm bolt for ya http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Honda-MT250-CR250M-CR250-Elsinore-MT-CR-250-Bolt-Swingarm-New-NOS-Genuine-/151073974777?pt=AU_Motorcycle_Parts_Accessories&hash=item232cb5e9f9&_uhb=1
