Well, one of my favorite things to do is race motorcycles..All sizes, and since the rash of bad get-offs at 130+ in my early 20's i've found a nice little sport that's not only affordable and fun to build your won creations, but there's actually races for them too!

The first pics are of one i started on for a customer just recently. IT came to me as a fully assemble 2005 Honda CR-85cc dirtbike. (with a blown bottom end) A few days ago I stripped the old motor, plastics, radiators and everything else off in getting ready to fi the brand new 250cc motor the owner had shipped to my house after dropping the bike off. Once this motor is in, I'm doing some port work, Crower will do the cam, Trail bikes HC piston (13.5:1 or so) and then I'm going to De-stroke it so it will rev like no 4 stroke 238cc bike you've seen I will post vids when i'm done

here's the first ones... the vids i'll post later are where we do shows for the J.D.R.F. And the A.C.S (diabetes and cancer societies...we do shows of stunting and jumping for the kids that are at the camps all over the US in the summer...one of the most rewarding things i've ever done for free..or paid to do actually)

Anyway... I aint here bout no jibber jabber LOL and here's where it gets long with pictures hope yo're nto on dial up HAhahaha

the first 6 or so are the CR85 w/ 250 motor

here's where iw as just trying to figure out how to set it


it's going to be a close fit for the pipe

These 2 were taken around midnight tonight when i finally called it quits. This is probably aboue exactly how the motor will sit, now i just have to biuld soe mounts, a cradle, re0enforce teh upper frame i hacked up and put it back together..yea thats easy enough LOL

Here's some of my other builds for stunting and racing.. Both the red/black bike and the green rat rod were piles of rusted up junk in a garage...we got a pair fo them for 200 bucks, then a lot of time and effort later, i built the red and black one for my buddy (did all the fab and paint..was his mental idea though) And the green rat rod (a.k.a. project good will..a.k.a. the grenade) is my baby! it was a pile of junk, i call it roject goodwill because the frame was given to me for the work i did on the red bike, and the motor (125cc when it was stock) was donated for some work for the owner of the first bike in this thread ( i build and tune his real moto-x race motors ) THe gren bike boasts over 15 HP, in a 115lb bike lots of custom parts from cams to pistons..one offs aren't cheap either..that's where i spent all my money since i got the rest for doing what i love and just had to paint and build it

This is the one that crippled me... 135 MPH was all i could slow to by the time i made impact...I'm very lucky to be here, but i'll never stop riding, only ride smarter.. I'm leaving it a link because i think it's huge
