Great seeing you and grandpa working together. I don’t really work with anyone on the same bike. I find that frustrating at best. There are certain tasks where it certainly helps.
Always Helpful to bag & tag All bolts, even separating locations for ‘longer’ & ‘shorter’. Makes reassembly infinitely easier. While you’re waiting for parts, paint to dry, etc take one bag at a time to soak, clean, chase threads, refinish/detail. Keep the Projects coming ! 👍🏼
Hey guys this is a good project and I am busy with an XR200 as well, we are also upgrading the suspension etc. I got suspension of a 2001 CR250R and it fits up almost perfectly with the exception of the rear brake slider that had to be modified. I would replace the front suspension while you are at it. But work with what you have. :)
Still seems a 96’ and not a 95’ donor. 96’ was a major design change remaining through 04’. We used a 95’ as a donor for our 87’ 250 suspension and rear disc conversion. Colors, stickers, and parts all resemble the 95’ model. 😉
Remind us which year 200? Where did the the rear brake master cylinder frame mount come from? Was that borrowed from the donor 95? (Never-mind this. Your video covered it near the end)

We definitely get heated from time to time lol but we try to have fun while doing it.

You can drill and tap for grease fittings
You can do that just hate to drill into stuff. Not a bad idea though might do that soon

The xr200r is a 1996
really should have gone with front usd forks in my opinion
Hey Patrick can you share what you like
About them?
What brand paint do you use for the frame ?
We use rust oleum primer after sand blast to bare metal. Then ultra white two coats
