not sure if I have ever shared my love for the 3 wheeled death machines of the 70s and 80s with you guys. over the years I have owned a hand full of them. but none has been more fun than my 83 250r!! its not the sought after liquid cooled 85-86 bike but it is a solid strong runner. well it was, last october I blew it up drag racing in the sand. the same day I ran into a guy who had an 84 air cooled cr500 he wanted to sell. I'm sure you smart fellers can see where this is going. I bought the bike a few wekes ago and have been building ever since
the 500 had newer style inverted forks and a new carb along with an updated ignition system. I had to build a new engine cradle to hold the monster 500. I then built a 6" longer than stock wing arm.
should be fun!!
