Honda CRF250X (CRF250R) Internal Rebuild - Part 6

Continuing on with the engine rebuild, we installed the bearings and seals in the previous video. In this video we install the crankshaft, transmission, oil pump, cylinder, head, camshaft and everything else in-between to get the engine ready to install back in the bike.

Great video 👍🏼 short and to the point with all the explanation you need to fix a motor by yourself.

Thanks for the feedback. I try to make the video informative but not long and boring. Lots of times I've been speeding up the wrenching but running normal speed at anything important. Let me know if there are other video's you'd like to see and I'll record them as I keep maintaining the bike

@@bobscrafts Could you make a video showing how to clean/ rebuild Carburetor?
Or is it different for the 250x vs 250r? Thanks

@@infinitesrh5750I'll make a video next time I pull the carb. I changed out the jets and needle when I was rebuilding the engine, it's a little more of a complicated carb compared to most that I have worked on.
Rick Ramsey has a great comparison between the 250R and 250X carbs on his site: rickramsey.net/CRF250X.htm
They look to be almost identical to me. I would say for the most part, the rebuild/cleaning would be the same

Hi. Is there any play on the crankshaft? In my 2015 CRF 250, I feel slight play along the sides and slightly up and down. Is this how it's supposed to be?
