Some of us did👌😎if only we ALL had! They were great MX bikes, and great times💪 and DOCWOB is the man that dedicates his life & times to keeping them around (better than new too)🏆
i bought this bike new September of 1986 when the 87 1st came out. raced it here in central FL. gold cup series. i drove an old junky van but this sweet bike would roll out of it. super reliable, I did nothing but change oil filter and rode it the entire series. In this era every year there was a noticeable and significant improvement with the bikes.
Awesome I had one back in the old school days. Seventeen in so Cal it was the best days of motocross is far as I'm concerned. Thanks for the blast from the past. God bless Matt,ky
I drove up to PC to get my 87 CR250 pipe. The catalog said they were out of stock but when your there, they have some in stock. The intermediate clutch cover says on backorder on the Honda parts list but talking to my honda parts guy, he said they never plan on selling selling anymore so dont hold your breath. The 88-91 cover fits and its aluminum. Thats what I used.
Actually your fork boots are aftermarket, the originals were hard plastic. Your seat cover is after market, all 80 crs had no visible seams on the cover. Great bike.
I have Two of these all tore down waiting to build…. New OE clutch covers frames powdered perfect match flash orange! Building family proved a bit more expensive than planned!!
Just to let you know, a buddy of mine is in the middle of a complete frame up “RJ ‘87 CR250R” rebuild and he just received his new PC ‘87 CR pipe from Pro Circuit. You had better make that call ASAP because PC just did a batch of these pipes up, not sure how long they will be available.
Wow, this is one of the best 250 2 stroke Honda ever made, especially that forks that is well known for. Just replace that 1985 "PRO LINK" swingarm sticker with period correct one. Thank you for this video.
@@docwobtv I was sponsored by Honda uk and Bridgestone but remember taking those Dunlop tyres off for my Bridges although the Dunlops were a great all round tyre. Maybe I’m mistaken.1987 onwards
I kind of think same, its to do a job, especially if your riding/racing it. Imo if you break a few chinese cheap parts its better than wrecking oem expensive parts.
Thanks for your video And that's a really sweet looking bike, Do you happen to have the link for the side cover water pump side cover from china I looked on ebay I couldn't find nothing,
@@docwobtv I found IT, IT's $45 from china, on Alibaba from ebay i think, I don't know if I wanna trust that site, If you find the site that you bought yours from that would be greatly appreciated, Thanks again for your reply and time, Pensacola, Florida,
87 stands above all earlier models because it finally got a rear disc brake. this is the most coveted bike in motocross.
It was/is wonderful, a real diamond in the rough
Definitely the best bike of the era 🇺🇸
I am liking it!
imagine we kept all these bikes from the 80's.
If only…..

Very cool! This is why we have them to bring back the memories!
These had an oil filter?
To me is one of the best looking CRs ever built.
Cheers.
Thanks for the comment
They never should have stopped making these bikes.
Agreed
2 stroke was like where it for sure!
Another banging piece of content from the king of the 2 strokes!
Thank you dude, your videos are insanely good!

Cheers man! Really appreciate the support!
I was loaned an 87 250..... what a bike, smooth power, lovely suspension, a pure joy
Couldn't agree more! For the time it was great!
Rare find being so original.
I like how the market is turning to factory/originality instead of blinged out crap
That’s what we like here!!

I had a near 100% Original ‘89. Mint Condition. I paid $1,000 back in 2012.
Worth some now that would be
Pretty sure PC made a limited run a few years ago of Ricky Johnson pipes made from the original measurements they still had from Ricky's factory bike
I will have to find that!

Yea they are a classic for sure
I thought the original tyres from the factory were Dunlop Doc,back in the day.😁✌️
Will find out! You have got me guessing now!
Dunlop in the states, Bridgestone in the uk I believe
@@docwobtv I was sponsored by Honda uk and Bridgestone but remember taking those Dunlop tyres off for my Bridges although the Dunlops were a great all round tyre. Maybe I’m mistaken.1987 onwards
oh oui!!
Merci!!!
Do a KDX build my friend!
We’ll try and find one!
3:47 can you put them on a scale and show us how heavy it is compared to the pro circuit.
OkN
Can I get a link info for Chinese clutch cover?
Thanks
Fantastic choice, interesting to see what China sends over 🍀🙏👍🇬🇧
Yeah we are looking forward to seeing what we get!
@@docwobtv Yes, keen on seeing how that China cover fits!
I kind of think same, its to do a job, especially if your riding/racing it. Imo if you break a few chinese cheap parts its better than wrecking oem expensive parts.
It’s now arrived and fitted, all good!!
Fits where it touches 😂😂😂😂
In all fairness I was a bit harsh on the dg pipe…
I have a cr 250 87 having problems with rear shock ,does anyone recomend someone?
We rebuild them here!
😍
She is a looker!!
