I bought a 2013 CRF 250 for $300 from a friend as a project rebuild. Engine was blown up, bike disassembled, engine disassembled, etc. The engine is in pieces and from the jump, it needs 2 new cases, a crank, valves, piston, and a cylinder. Thats only what i can tell just by opening the ice chest that its in. I would feel confident enough to do it myself had i been the one to disassemble the engine. Theres just too many unknowns for me to get into the rebuild of it and would rather someone who has done it before handle it so Im looking for a shop that can handle this rebuilt without costing me an arm and a leg. Any recommendations would be appreciated
I bought a bike in boxes like that once and it was a little daunting at first but honestly, it wasn't that hard. It's just kind of a jigsaw puzzle and the shop manual is the guide. You can do it!!
The Shop
A 7 year old grenaded 250f will be a hard project to flip for a decent profit.
I can save you some money on parts/labor but even so You will be invested enough it would make more sense to keep the bike afterwards.. imo
These types of projects can be fun but i would really sharpen your pencil on this one bud!
It’s a simple mx engine...
