Cameron you’re just like a Honda takes a beating but still keeps running 😂 I’m glad you’re doing a lot better love the build stay strong 💪🏻
M.R John Deere 04 ohh yeah Honda's are indestructible!!! Especially 2004 crf450r!! Mate I rode that bitch to hell and back and back again for 4years on 2 oil changes and 1 new set of clutch plates that i discovered it didn't really need... Was popping and a bitch to start in the end but once it was going it still went hard even though the valves where probably sealed shut
Matty Mccolgan I beat on my Honda recon 250 every weekend the thing won’t quit I love it to death though
The grind is unreal.
Camstrong should be a race team.
Hey cam I’ll make sure to tell all my friends at the track tomorrow about ur shirts I’m buying one today cause with out u how would I know how to put anything together!
It’s amazing how Cameron can do this kinda stuff so smooth and knows mostly everything like it’s written in the back of his head! Keep it up Cameron💪🏼
You are a real warrior fighting cancer and rebuilding a bike, prayers with you brother 🙏
This build will turn out factory! Awesome cam! Glad your doing well! 👍🏼
i'm sure it was a breath of fresh air for you doing what you love. Stay strong man it only gets better from here!
to get the zylinderhead nearly perfect flat....place sandpaper (400-600grid) on a mirror and place the zylinder upside down on it...move the zylinder in a circle on the paper without pressing on it...rotate the zylinder in your hand every couple of turns..
@cameron...you are awsome..nice video again...stay strong and best whishes from germany
This video makes me appreciate the simplicity of my YZ250 motor especially the exhaust valve.
Stay strong! I do have a tip use glass or granite slab with your sand paper on it for gasket surfaces it's a for sure method to "deck" a surface. Good luck to you and keep up the vids.
Adam Hood good call I need to do that as well
I know you probably heard this a lot. But what you're going through with your Leukemia treatment. Still making videos you really are a true inspiration. You really are camstrong!.
thanks for another great video man, hope you are doing better. I'm about to start my 92 rm250 project, ive taken a lot of notes from all your great advice about cleaning and such. can't wait to see the final result of your CR.
I'll second that, the result is porn for sure. Brilliant strip down and build.
I work at Powerseal Europe! Cool you went to Powerseal USA! Diggin' it!
lol i work there too :) an internship for half a year. Great company!
Glad to see your are up and around. Get better bro. I'll check out your site and order a shirt for my son and myself.
It’s getting so close. Hoping for more good days and sweet build videos. keep pushing through it brother nothing worse than getting complacent
Been WAITING for this....that gorgeous 250 Honda!!! Glad to see ya getting back into it.
Keep fighting! Wish you lots of strength and really cool you keep on doing the vids man, even if you're pretty knakkered by the leukemia and treatment. Takes courage to show yourself in this state. My respect to you!
Good idea having a buddy do it. Better safe than sorry. I know it is late but best wishes and hope that you are feeling better.
I dont even have a bike but i find ur videos very informative.. you have a clean and easy way of explaining things.... keep up the good work
I just got a big bore block for my CB250. The lower part of the barrel that protrudes out underneath the block was honed so thin, it cracked while trying to fit my pistons/rings. I was left no other option but to sheer off the rest of the cracked skirts and re-burnish the surface. Made fitting the pistons that much harder, but I did manage to get it all back on. I really dont see there being much issue as the pistons do not travel past the bottom of the block, but no one can really give me a straight answer if I will or wont. Motor is going back on frame tomorrow, just gonna give it a start and see if it grenades or pisses oil out of some unknown crevace. Fingers crossed
Oh dude so sorry to hear about your problem, you got this . I absolutely know you got this , please please take care and get better fast.
Love seeing the CR & YZ 250 two strokes saved. Thanks for your thoughtful work.
Can we not Grow Cams channel for him more? Amazing personality, unbelievable story, huge heart, unmatched skill and knowledge for Niche MX fixes and mods. This Channel should be a monster!
Nice to see you working in bikes again. Camstrong! ✊
I love the CR build stuff. Awesome content as always!
you still keep the youtube grind even after all you are goin thru, keep it goind
Great work Cameron, good to see you back in your shop! Cheers, Doug
Something sweet I use to clean up gasket surface is I had a piece of plate glass cut and I attach any grit sandpaper you want to use either that has an adhesive back or use painters tape in the corners works super good and being tempered plate glass you know is perfectly flat
I hope you get better i love your content cancer and leukemia suck and you are a strong guy and i know you will pull through.
I just used powerseal usa as well. Waiting for my cylinder to come home. I had used another company in the past and it wasn't a good experience. Thanks for the great videos
Had a idea for you mate while I was in hospital having spinal surgery, was thinking about certain repairs that I'm unable to do as I don't have specific tools and I'll be out of work for a while so can't go spending 100s on specialty tools that I may only use once or twice... I had a friend who passed away recently who was a car mechanic and always had some special trick to get the job done... Maybe you can do a vid on backyard fixes/ Bush mechanic repair to get some jobs done without buying a specific tools but still getting it done... You don't have to just an idea for ya mate
Hope your everything is good mate and your content is still number1 on TH-cam along with Travis Pastrana and Nitro Circus... Positive thoughts
Hey Cameron, thanks for the super super fast delivery of my scotch bryte discs all the way to here in New Zealand. Cant wait to get cracking on some serious polishing on my custom klx300.
Thanks for the order man! Let me know how they work out for you
Hope you are doing well man! Glad to see you back with the CR250 build 👍- From the UK
Thanks for all your really great vids Cameron. Sending get well wishes from Cornwall in the UK ...Keep strong.
Powerseal is the absolute best in the industry
Been watching some of your excellent videos lately. Shocked and surprised to hear about your fight with leukaemia. You are young and strong, you'll not let it win. A very good friend of mine was diagnosed 2 years ago with the same. He is fully back up to where he was before! I can hope the same for you Cam.
Powerseal did the welding and Nikasil on my kx125 jug last month. They come with a warranty as well incase of defect. 300$ total with shipping for a better than OEM product. Even less if you don’t need welding just a replate
Hey I brought it in to my local shop (CEP Automotive) and it costed only $200 including the Wiesco Piston.
Jonathan Brugge you have a local shop that does plating? Dang how lucky
That's a bit of a rip off.
For £180 ($230) my 94 kx 125 cylinder was vapour blasted, welded and re-plated.
Glad to hear from you again mate. Best wishes from down under.
Love your videos! My favourite are the cr 250. Mine is a 2002. You're my go to for advice. Keep up the good work!! Stay PRYME!!
Cory Tryon I have a 2002 Cr250 as well.
Good 2 c they relieved th bridge after they plated it 👌
Wish you wouldve showed how ypu remove your power valve. I cant get mine out of the cylinder to clean it when i do a top end job. I have an 03 cr250 as well. Love all your vids. Sorry to hear about the cancer
Hi Cameron! Du machst deine Sache wirklich sehr gut! Erlaube mir eine kleine Kritik oder besser gesagt, einen Verbesserungsvorschlag. Betreffend deiner polierarbeiten an der Zylinder Außenseite. Ich habe wesentlich bessere Erfahrungen gemacht, wenn ich die Zylinder Außenseite Glasperlenstrahle und somit eine leicht aufgerauchte Oberfläche erhalte. Das hat zur Folge, dass sich der Fahrtwind besser in der rauen Oberfläche fängt und somit eine bessere Kühlung des Zylinder gewährleistet ist! Eine polierte Oberfläche des Zylinder leitet den Fahrtwind ab und verhindert somit ein zusätzliches kühlen durch den Fahrtwind! Probiere es aus und gebe mir dein Feedback.
First, we're sorry to hear about the leukemia diagnosis Cameron, hope you get through it to full remission. will be praying for you brother! Second, another option here is just to send the cylinder to L.A. Sleeve and have 'em install their chromoly sleeve in it....works well every time I've done it and you then have the option of rebore to next size piston/overbore to more displacement (a bit expensive but they do great work.) : )'
Heck yea dude hope you getting better
Millinium technologies replated and welded mine , it runs flawless and I highly recommend them.
Happy to see another video from this build, thanks for the great content as always.
i thought this was an old video but it was just posted. really good!
Nice to see you back home get well soon! Love this channel!
Stay strong brother !! Your the best keep your head up man we're all behind you
PowerSeal USA is an amazing company I plan to send off my spare cylinder for my 84 KDX 200 so in case something happens I can do a quick top end swap and keep running
Wish I had the money to buy a shirt bud. I'd love to help support your fight but unfortunately I'm struggling ATM... Awesome to see you back at it though! Getting up and being active doing something you love can only help strengthen you IMHO. I struggle with addiction and the best thing for a recovering addict is to stay active, so I believe it's helpful in your case as well. Take care man. You look healthy and strong brother! Keep up the good fight my dude. Love your videos man!
Good to see you're working on the CR250 again. 😎👍
I hope you get to feeling better bud
Can't wait for the build to be done man! Hope you continue to feel better too, stay stronk!
Hi Cameron! You are really doing your thing very well! Allow me a little criticism or better, a suggestion for improvement. Regarding your polishing works on the cylinder outside. I've had much better experiences when I get the cylinder outside glass bead jets and thus a slightly smokey surface. As a result, the wind will catch better in the rough surface and thus a better cooling of the cylinder is guaranteed! A polished surface of the cylinder dissipates the wind and thus prevents additional cooling due to the wind! Try it and give me your feedback. Lieben Gruß aus Deutschland und dem Thüringer Wald 👍
Slick video as always dude. keep strong, Be strong, Camstrong. wish you a speedy recover.
I think its bad ass that youre letting your subscribers help decide the direction of the build. super cool. I hope youre feeling better. oh, I picked up a Yamaha Tri-Z 250 today :)
I've used power seal USA before. Very great results from them. Can I make a suggestion, now is the time to clean up the ports on the cylinder. Because if you happen to hit the cylinder wall is doesn't matter. They will correct any slight damage like that. Plus it would make for a great video!
I should have watched the whole video 1st. Kinda too late to clean ports now. Lol
I was so excited to see these new videos pop up on my subscriptions! Glad to see you up again. Will be taking a look at the web sight. School year starts soon and my boys would love some of your gear.
Great to see you out of the hospital. No one wants to be in the hospital
Good to see you back in the saddle. Great video.
Great video, Get Well wishes from New Zealand
When he was back at powerseal after they fix your cylinder you should have sent it to dby Motorsports to have them Port that cylinder. You would have seen the Improvement of their port work what they do. I've been running their cylinders since 2006 in my car
I think the correct clearance is 0:0024” to 0.0029”, 24 to 29 ten thousandths of an inch. Nice job on the video as usual.
Love watching your vids, super great content. can't wait for the 250 build to be finished!! stay strong Cameron.
So excited for the reveal of this baddie. Stay strong man! You got this💪
Keep up the videos friend. We have some similarities my pop has stage four cancer. I env you and your hard work.
Nice to see you back at it. Camstrong 💪🏻
Probably best to go to a local honda parts dealer. I found this is the easiest way to get parts for my old husky. Luckily I have a husky dealer right here in town, and the prices aren't bad at all, same if not better than what I can find online.
Sorry to hear the news God speed buddy.. I really enjoy your videos you are very particular in your builds im the same way so I appreciate that.. Im making a nice 87 rm 125 right now so been learning from your vids I have never worked on engines before so very helpful !! Thanks for making it easier..
PowerSeal is the way to go Cameron, good choice!
It is good to see you Cam!
Back at it again👌
I hope you cleaned the cylinder after sanding the head gasket surface and I would have sanded and clean the cylinder before installing the power valve
Pretty sure he knows what he's doing...
@@maxtharipper I've been in the power sports repair business for 31 years he doesn't do everything totally correct I can tell he hasn't rebuilt very many engines and no one uses a sheet rock or wood sanding block to surface the deck on a cylinder
@@michaeltrower6792 congrats bro...
@@maxtharipperthanks smart ass troll
this is why most of us subbed i believe and seeing this is so relieving
Nice one! So much more satisfying than replacing it with a new one.
Millennium does incredible work have done many for me ver resonable
Just one tip cylinder head 1200 grit wet and dry on a piece of glass stick it down with spray adhesive then move in circular motion keeps it perfectly flat 220 is skittle coarse.
So here comes my most honest comment ever.
For the first i really did not like your face, you seamed like a person could not stand, specially not to watch, someone who is really unsympathic. But.
I watched a few of your videos, and slowly changed my mind, i subscribed, and to be honest, i really think that your content has a very hight value,
informative, straight forvard, not selfish at all, like many others out there.
Being humble and always giving the credits to all you work with( parts, companies, etc) is a massive plus.
I just lately learned that you have cancer, i trully believe that you will beat that thing and have a long happy life!
Chears mate!
Great repair on your cylinder. I know you love team red (Honda) but as you know their 2 stroke parts are getting rare. You my want to consider team blue (Yamaha) for your next restoration. I pray you will continue to improve health wise.
Hi Cameron! Good to see you back at work. Looks like you are spending a lot of time at the barber shop.... seriously though the schotch brite work looks great. I am trying to clean up the spokes on my bike w/a schotch b pad. It works but very tedious any way you can recommend that would be easier?
That's going to be tedious either way but I think the wheel on a bench grinder would be the quickest way
Hey finally you're back! Hope you're doing great!
Sorry to hear you have cancer, keep up the good work and get well soon, we the people need you !
Im also telling everyone I know about your shirts and I should have an order ready by next week. Sending you good vibes all the way from Namibia!!!👌💪
Nice to see you back and a round dude
I’m so glad you are back and strong!
Another great 250 video, good to see you looking well brother.
Wow another works standard re furb from you Cam i hope Honda use your videos to show the world how these jobs should be done ,thank you Please God you will beat this cancer man keep safe Paul D
Another excellent video, you look good Cameron keep getting better.
Shirt and pads ordered! Get better, Cam!
Thanks Ken!!
Great video Cam! As always, thanks for the education brother!
Hi guy. Great the video about cylinder grinding. I have a RMX Nikasil cylinder and I would like to know how the sandpaper granulation (or stone) to cylinder honing. I'm exchanging pistons and rings.
Stay#CamStrong!! Love to see you're doing what you love bro.
All the best for you. Get better and back on tracks
Camstrong shirt on its way!
