    I just finished a ‘95 KX, took over 2 yrs but mine is on the same level as this CR. I can relate to EVERYTHING he is saying.

    Lovely! Doc Wob's on the phone though, with a list of things you did wrong hahaha. I had a 92' 93' 95' in those years. The 93' was a nice bike, I remeber taking it to the Isle Of Man to race whilst I was there watching the TT, good times but too hungover to race well ha! The 95' was an animal it had belonged to a pro friend of mine who had picked up sponsorship from Frank Wrathall Developments. Previously mainly known for tuning GP circuit bikes, he had gone to town on this CR250 engine and it was insane. He had fully worked on the cases adjusting volume and flow, barrel / head and even D slide modified the carb, a speciality of his, 3rd gear starts werent an issue in sand 🤣. Should of kepts that one!

    I love it. Going deep. I couldn't ever let one rot on the side of the house. Loved them more when I sold them than when I got them because of that sentimental value. It's like your wrench work and maintenance is a relationship with the machine. The more you do that, the better it takes care of you. Allowing for experience in exchange for it's efforts. A beautiful thing really.

    I bought one of those brand new. Best bike I’ve ever owned. Even switched it over to a woods bike after a couple yrs of moto and the soft bottom end allowed it to chug over slippery roots and rocks great.

    the best thing was the nuclear red of these bikes at the time. The red just popped on Honda's in the 90's. Seem to be a bit more flat these days
