Is this DESTROYED Honda CR250 too far gone??

[@EarthSurferUSA]

min 15. Yes, you can measure from a point on the swing arm to that point on the Works Connection adjuster, but you still don't know if both of those points on the swing arm you are measuring from (one on each side), are the same distance from the swing arm pivot center. The hash marks maybe just as repeatable.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Probably the best way to make sure both sides are adjusted the same, is to use a tool that measures from the center of the swing arm pivot, to the center of your rear axle. A yard stick like piece, and 2 centers would do it, even with no numerical measurement. Just set it after the chain tension is right on one side, and make the other side the same distance with the set tool. That way, you are not trusting manufactured (and welded here too) parts that have a variance.

Hello! Thanks for the comment and theory. Precision is key so I see where you're coming from. I have to say in my time of working on dirt bikes (32 years as an enthusiast and 22 years professionally) I've never encountered a need for such tool for alignment. These WC axel blocks make the precise need very achievable. There are the times of coarse where something is off from MFG or a crash that such "jig" would be handy. Tony // MXSS PS - You should sign up for you chance to win ANY of the bikes we build... Just a thought. Then you can make whatever parts you want for it.

All the builds with so much attention to detail and cosmetics is second to nothing, totally off the hook and then to see some of them in magazine articles etc is incredible 😃 I learn something from each video and Charles and Uncle Tony make it interesting and fun - as far as a name be a Honda I would call it the " red-devil " thank you for the information on these videos

[@MXSkillShack]

Mikey HUDGE!!! We appreciate you Tony

[@Bryski772]

Forget coffee and cars much better to have coffee and dirt bikes. I may be a little biased, but that O2 CR is gonna be the sickest thing you guys have done yet can’t wait thank both of you. I feel very lucky to have connected with two wacky dudes who know their shit when it comes to building bikes life is good🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@MXSkillShack]

Yeah, screw cars! Well, cars are pretty cool actually…. But we are super grateful and ultra fortunate to have you in our lives, Bryan. I can’t wait for the before and after photos and seeing your face for the first time when you get your sexy bike back. -Charles

Thanks dude! Really appreciate the kind words. Just like you said, with consistency, it will come! Once we start putting out some actual finished products that will help quite a bit too. Definitely in the reputation building stage of this company.

Y'all are transforming these old bombers into absolute artwork! The only real problem I see is that they're too damned gorgeous to ride on the track (and trails) for fear of sullying and soiling their glorious new condition! First world dilemma! 😂

Why are you asking us in the headline if that Honda is "too far gone"? You are the guys trying to rebuild it, not us. I know, if I can get parts, (or make my own in a pinch), I would not have to ask the question if I can rebuild it or not. Now, I will watch the vid, and see what you do wrong. :)
