Restore it broski 💯
You cant give me your bike 😂😂😂
@@isakbossebeaulieu6550 what does that mean
@@RagdollRacingInc i was jocking i say that he can give me is cr
Please do a propper complete 100% rebuild/.restoration It will take a lot of time and be a huge challenge but would make great content.
This guy wob goes in full restoration… th-cam.com/video/sePDO0jQV0U/w-d-xo.html
I agree 100%
I've been impressed by this young guy. I'm 52 ive had 2 crs. 87 125 - 1982 cr 125. I am a Honda guy myself. I appreciate this guys ambition and his choices in life. He's dedicated to relentlessly getting these neglected dirt bikes brought back to life. The Japanese people would honor you for what you do. I'm hoping there's many more people out there doing exactly what he's doing. Motorcycle junk yards are full of these old bikes. Anyone reading my comment please consider visiting an old bike Yard and bringing 1 home and giving cpr to an old cr.🙂 👍💯🔥
You should do a full on rebuild on this bike
That would be awesome! Like a full restoration
At the very least he needs to make everything functional (brakes clutch new bottom end etc) I know that main bearing roar, it’s bad news. Had 2 bikes blow up on me and it always had that roar.
Nah, to many projects and hard to find parts for These
@@abethebabe539 other people have restored these bikes to perfect, it’s possible
@@abethebabe539 Yea the parts are to hard to find for that year way to much work
Restoration series on this bike would be awesome
That bike is worth keeping and fully restoring it
Cool Ole bike!! I'm 51 and would love to run across an old basket of this Era. Rode tons of late 70s to mid 80 as a younger man. Old XR200R was my first big bike. Keep up the good work really enjoy your shares.
the engine sounds like the bearings are shot. best sell it on to someone who will give it a full strip down and rebuild.
He can just do it himself
@@Corras_1 but he won’t and he didn’t, that’s not what he does on this channel.
@@tpghl5225 Yes he does have you not watched any of his videos?
@@Corras_1 he doesn’t fully restore anything, I’ve been watching for 3 years. A full restore would be stripping it down and making it brand new. That’s not the purpose of his channel, it’s to buy cheap bikes, get them running on a budget and sell them. Rinse and repeat. Unless your just talking about a motor rebuild then yeah but not a restore
@@tpghl5225 I didn't say restore
I only come here now to read the comments 🥴🥴😂😂👊👊
PLEASE restore the old girl Joe! I know it will cost a shit ton of money and time, but it will be worth your efforts! You brought her this far man...don't quit on us now!
Love the vids mate x . Keep up the goodness / content in these crazy times ....
Its worth fixing dont ride it without air filter it will lean out bad its sounds like its going to grenade split those cases and save that elsinore you dont find them to often i hope you see this
And its winter💀
Please full rebuild joe!!! Great video 👍I loved the cr80 build I've been using it to rebuild my 1986 cr80r.
Well with how lean it's running, if you didn't need a crank before, you probably do now. The "Red Rocket" is worth a full restore.
Sounds good and love the smoke coming out of the exhaust
I would say keep it and restore it it because you would do a good job
Joe listen up. Restore it, but like use good spray paint. Sand it down, use primer. And a little paint. Nothing crazy. Get grips and levers. Fix the clutch and sell it. No need to go all in with powder coat unless your giving it away or keeping it.
Things just gonna go up in value
good to see you got er going, getting excited to hear mine run for the first time
By far one of the best channels out there!! I’d love an early 80s cr, ohhh my days I’d do anything lol😂😂, love the video mate, would love to see this bike back in its full glory
2vintage it looked like u were having to much fun bouncing on the dirtbike it reminded me of the old bouncy horses 😆 that were from the 90s
hahah
I was waiting waiting waiting for upshifts
It's time to attempt a full restore. It would be something new for you and a learning experience that every bike enthusiast should have.
I love when he’s kicking it the sub titles say “applause”🤣
The oil part or dampening part of the shock usually is down there Junior sample I know all you young guys don't know this s*** but these are the bikes of my hay day anytime you install DualShock the dampening side is always down
Ok boomer
@@WH-ex1bq yo yo!!!!
Full rebuild would be awesome. Great video man.
That's a restoration project
My friend had one of these old cr250 also known as red rocket he used to play with the park security and police when they chased him in the park field and do donuts around them, it was a great bike for it’s time.
I had the 80/81 CR80r when I was a kid. Little weapon for the time.
Rattling sound sounds like piston slap. Might be getting ready for a top end. Also back in the day they used to have rubber grommets that go between the fins on the cylinder head to cut down sound. But I am very pleased to see that you saved it and it will ride again
old air cooled motors with big fins like this always were noisy as hell even new,better when warmed up a bit.
main crank bearings are rotted too
Loving this bike hope it comes up for sale or gets restored
These old gems need to be saved save them all👍
Awesome man , rebuild the shocks/fork get some fresh plastic and fork guards and just keep her haha happy days !
I'm gonna tell you what so far noone did and what you need to hear. You are the worlds greatest
really deserves better this restored is worth 10 of those damn tractors but i guess that’s not what you do. it’s the perfect winter project in a heated workshop
Bike is coming along, great video as always.
Very fortunate that the GoPro captured the cap falling off of the throttle.
A good way to free up your clutch plates without destroying your transmission is send it up a steep incline (on street) in high gear wide open with the clutch lever pulled in (High gear high load) The torque put on the plates will free them up and it doesn't involve slamming your trans into gear and potentially damaging anything or over revving the motor. Worked on my YL2C trailmaster. Not to mention you don't have to pull the clutch cover
Would not be something I’d be on or put money in . Long adventure to get to this point but it is quite the accomplishment. Congratulations.
Nice vintage cr250 man✔
Definitely do a full rebuild
That beast is mint
Bro what? Theres rust all over it and the bottom end is knocking😂
@@albairin7203 haha i think its minty!
@@Builditathome-Restoration fair enough, a engine rebuild and good sandblasting would work wonders
My first dirt bike was a 81 cr 80 loved that bike.
My first bike was an '82 yz50 I handed it down to my 8 year old little brother this year, I'm 14, after the yz50 I got my hands on a '86 cr80r i love the bike still have it, sits in the shed now I red a '85 kx125
I’d love to have one of these man my son has an xr80r but he doesn’t know anything about the raw power of those old cr’s there amazing bikes and there bulletproof just take care of them and they’ll outrun anything new on the market
She is running not bad at all!! Nice to see ,have fun with it !!
Nooice. I love these cheap project builds.
Love the videos keep up the good work
Claw hammers are soft metal for driving nails. Ballpeen hammers are hardened steel for working with metal. Get yourself some ballpeen hammers and it will make things easier.
Please do a complete rebuild, old bikes never die they just get rebuilt ! Cheers
No brakes no cut off switch and clutch plates stuck 😂😂😂😂
Just a little sketchy
The bieke is looking awesome keep up the good work
That piston slap is easier to hear in air cooled bikes and the manufacturers didn't bother installing rubber dampeners between the fins on their race bikes. They were more concerned with keeping the engines as cool as they could, even jetting them a bit rich for the cooling evict. Engine sounds fine.
Im pretty sure my cr500r has rubber between the fins?....
@@CainSample that’s because the cr500 was really load though
Sounds like clutch is slipping but not bad for the age of the bike
No, the clutch doesn’t work at all so that “slipping” was him shifting without the clutch.
Doesn’t “ sound “ like it. It’s looks like it
Love that Frankenstein bike
I wanted to say good job on all your videos. They are all great to watch and I can't wait for more to come in this new year! ( with a yfz of course ) lol
Yes I believe the shocks are on upside down . The adjusters should be at the top may work better the other way . The oil in the case should have been changed the wrong oil may be in it. . It has been a long time since this vid was made but I have never seen one of these bikes . A full restore would be a good idea.
Seems like we’d all like to see a full restore. Might wanna get those main bearings replaced and check your connecting rod ASAP so it doesn’t cost you a case. Great video
Please restore this bike, its iconic! Would look rad
12:40 the best part of the video 😂
Don’t hammer like that poor 80’s 🙏
Sounds so good ring dinging!
Be good to see her fully restored
Part 5 let the rebuild begin! Aloha from Kauai😎🤙🏻
I’d like to see you restore it. At least new grips and paint before you get rid of it.
Ooh Haiden Deegans new bike is looking fresh🥵
😂
Loving the videos, Keep them coming. 🇬🇧
Looks bad ass like that she's a ripper!
You should go ice fishing. I would love to see some vids.
Hey man, get rid of that Lucas 2 stroke oil & get some castor 927 or klotz. A much better oil for 2 strokes by far!! That oil your using if for weedeaters
Klotz R50 is the best oil in the game besides their Benol.
Mate restore it and keep it cr are collectable and the prices are going up now
I just now got the notification 7 hours later Like and shared the video still
Sounds like ur bottom end is knocking bro I'd be a bit worried but it's a minor work for u
Yeah sounds like it needs some TLC
@Quirin M. that's slimey that some poor kid will be happy for all off a few hours if tht
Power valve dirty
@Quirin M. yeh that's bot fair really check out djs garage boys hes a good youtuber and honest too
Keep the clutch held in the entire time you are riding it and it will began to work.
Lets call that bike the “Pogo Bomb”
Good job getting her goin!
The pogo stick is alive 🤪
Almost forgot...@Whoop!
Use That Cable Tool Pops Taught You About On The Banshee to clean the cable
@@fdrc8099 yeah been watching for a very long time I’ll definitely be checking it out
adjusters for rear shocks go on top
I'd be cool to see a complete rebuild of this bike
Rear fenders save lives! Put a piece of plastic in there for now. Imagine riding and you slide back to far on the seat or come down on the rear fender. You body would loose grip and you would fall on the rear wheel while it’s spinning and get hurt real bad.
the inserts on those shocks have like an half inch hole in them and you are mounting them with what looks like quarter inch thick bolts, you are going to have a lot of banging and clanking
Your neighbours must think your some type of frankenstein lol
I subscribed y’all have a bunch of cool stuff, I have a Suzuki ts185, a barnfind Honda trail 90, and just got a 1986 Honda fourtrax.
Hey Joe, it looks like DC plastics still has a good selection of parts for your bike:
Rear Fender:

Rear Shocks:
www.dcvmx.com/xcart/product.php?productid=18161
Side Panels:
www.dcvmx.com/xcart/product.php?productid=17864&cat=269&page=1
and I'm sure they have a lot more than just these.
Good luck, have fun and stay safe!
They are a torque monster
A thick rubber hose makes a good rubber bushing..no drilling required
Collector vintage CR 250 rebuild it to mint. Its cool. A metal detector would find that cap.
Very nice build and god bless
I believe it has a chrome bore.....expensive to rebuild this bike over all but not common so maybe worth more to somebody. It wasn't a great bike when new....suspension was crap, motor was good.
Great bike those are really good
Monster of a bike seriously
Not a big thing unless for some reason nut comes off but never put lower shock bolts from rim out. If nut came off for some reason bolt could back out into spokes which would make for a bad day. I do love the old bikes though but suspension usually a rough ride for sure
Sounds like metal on metal. Still very cool.
keep that bad boy its like having a 57 chevy
Its my dream bike
Why? Air cooled 2 strokes are paper weight dinosaurs
@@jeeperzcreeperzz because they have character and soul unlike modern machines
@@foreverhungry84 a 95 cr500 has character and soul too.. Anything from the 70s or 80s is so old its like going to the stone age
@@jeeperzcreeperzz I like older cr125s cuz it’s rare and I make money
@@TemporaryBomb a cr125 isnt rare....Thats like saying a honda civic Is rare
Don’t worry about a kill switch when it’s a first run pull the spark plug boot off
I had a friend of mine a long time ago that had 79 CR250 and he knew the throttle cable had a bad spot in it. He wanted to ride real bad so he rode the woods anyway and as soon as he turned the corner throttle cable stuck wide open and threw him off the bike. The bike laid on its side running wide open. We all had to pick the bike up and get it against a tree get it cut off. Ha ha it was almost like running a chainsaw. But it hurt him bad.
Little noise he says
Sell it, I'd doesn't make sense financially to restore it with the price of parts unless you're in love with it
He should of restored the cr500r.
A restoration doesn’t always have to be about making money
Even though it would be costly having a bike like this brings back memories for some people and they would pay tons of money for it
Was that the Ronnie Mac 4 fingers chain tention test?😂😂🤘🤘
