    Progress

    Hey everyone, I'm making progress on my 83 250r. got everything stripped down today and got the frame ready to go to the sandblaster. also, have parts coming for the engine rebuild so I should be able to atleast get the bottom end back together in the next week or so. took a couple pictures of the progress/ destruction.

    Great to see the progress bud. Whats the plan for the bike? Resto or bringing the puppy back to life for a nice rider?
    Keep us updated, always great to see progress.
    Plus it gives some of us slackers motivation to finish our destruction 👍[emoji481]

    I'm not much of a resto guy never really been my style. Plan is to make it a sweet rider. Switching up the color scheme which I'm sure will upset some of the die hard Honda guys out there. I'm excited tho should be a sweet ride when I'm done. I had a 86250r when I was younger and wish I never would have gotten rid of it

    Does anyone know how many different rear suspension setups came on the 83 250r. Or by chance what should have came on it? I tore my rear suspension apart thinking no big deal I have the manual but it's totally different than what my book has. I figured it out after staring at it for awhile. Lol. But was just curious if anyone knew. Also it has 4 bolt hubs. Are those stock?

    I'm going to keep the motor black. Think it'll look best with what I have going on. I have some updates on the progress but it won't let me upload pictures for some reason

    Just some updates of the progress. The one pictures is what's left of the bearing on the crank/rod end. Be getting brand new rod piston and bore.

    Another update on the R. Still waiting on funds to finish the motor. But forks are rebuilt and working on the tank
    As we speak.

    The blue/white color scheme will look good. I haven't seen another one like it.

    Thanks everyone. She's coming along good I think. Always liked the way blue and white looked together. Figured there would be some haters for getting rid of all the red on the Honda
