    Ha ha! well spotted, it has a pinch flat :banghead: and i'm too scared to take to the painted rim with the tyre levers, so it might stay that way for a while.

    try that tyre sealer that eats aluminium rims then you can fix it properly when the rim collapses:eek:

    can someone please help me, to finish this bike i need the split sleeve that goes in the forks on the left hand side of the bike, that the axel goes through, and that the axel nut does up on.
    if someone with an 81 or 82 CR250 could measure the length of the sleeve and let me know what it is, or point me in the direction of where i could buy one i'd greatly appreciate it.

    There was one on ebay, last time I looked over the weekend, with axle/nut. Was reasonable as well.

    I had a bit of spare time this long weekend so I dedicated the time to my bikes, I got my carby back from being cleaned, and I bought a few bits and pieces that I needed to finish the bike and it's 99.99% finished.
    I just need a clamp for the intake side of the carby.
    Here it is!!!
