raxen Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 Get a good service manual and break it down. It is a good experience. Quote
evil Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 true !!! but as always man, theres ct racing in santa fe springs, trinity racing in anaheim, wicked motorsports in riverside, rudy kurts (port magic racing) in the san ber do area, and theres always the stealerships that are everywhere. later Quote
Leadfoot350 Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 Also inland atv's are fast guys too for hondas. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 What part of So Cal are you in? Are you near Santee or El Cajon? Quote
IrideA250R Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 do it yourself! 250R's are a peice of cake to rebuild. Make sure you check the lower rod bearing for side to side and up and down play when you have it apart. There is a spec for side to side between the thrust washers and rod. Have a good quality bore job done (need piston first to do so), and put it together using ONLY OEM HONDA gaskets. other gaskets are junk and do not work as well, only use OEM Honda! Servicehonda.com can get you a complete upper and lower gasket kit for $35 so it doesn't pay to skimp here. Quote
senoroms Posted November 20, 2003 Author Report Posted November 20, 2003 it would be great to do it myself, other than the fact that im not that illiterate with the tools that i would be needing. im just learning the basics of mechanics with my shee, so i was looking for someone to just get the 250r done for me. i live in newport but my bike and stuff is near corona and the whole inland empire. what do u guys suggest. who does a good job for just a basic rebuild Quote

Its not as difficult as you might think. Quote
bakerboy90660 Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 I know of a guy in Corona, his name is Tiger (Tiger Racing) this guy knows everything about shee's, I've seen him build one up from the floor up. All my buddies go to him, I don't have any info with me right now, but I will get it. Quote
rx7500hpt2 Posted November 21, 2003 Report Posted November 21, 2003 I'm in costa mesa. As far as local stuff I'd stay away from 3 bros racing, Champion honda might cost an arm and a leg but Nick in the service department is a Real cool dude you might want to talk to him. Quote
