250-500cc 1995 WXE250 Rejuvination

I bought this bike a couple months ago for cheap, having owned a bunch of big 650 hondas it was a nice change for the tight stuff. Anyhow, its plated for the street out here and in overall great shape and runs good.

However, the previous owner in all of their brilliance welded the CS sprocket onto the lay shaft. This angers me and does not instill confidence out in the desert. I found the lay shaft for about $120 new, I can't find a gasket set though...is there a kit for WR/CR that will work? Also, what is my best bet for crank bearings and oil seals? I might as well replace them while I have the cases split, even though it was supposedly completely rebuilt 25 hours ago

Here is a picture of the husky, and bonus KX500 with a 1mm over wossner just installed

Where did you get the plastics for the husky and would they fit my 98 Wr 125 ? grate bikes man keep up the good work!

Clean KX....am I allowed to say that on here....lol

weird, i dont remember seeing this original post..i do like the look of the 80s kaws..nice bike!
in case the op is still watching, athena had almost all the gaskets for my 95 360. halls had the rest

Forgot about this post, thanks for the info. The bike sat for most of the year, I bought a beautiful original owner 2003 KX500 and couldn't stop riding that.

I fixed the countershaft bolt, got a new tank on the way, and am resealing the whole top end right now.

I was going to buy the gplus 2006-11 wr300 silicon hoses, will these fit with a little encouragement? Or if anyone has a set of stock rubber hoses in good shape for sale...

Also, what carb boot holders will interchange? Mine is clinging on to life

im running that gplus application on my 95 360, i dont see why they would fit even better on your 250. ..
i bought my carb boot from "hotfootmoto" on ebay.

So...which one is better???

That is the big question!!!

Give us a back to back ride report on the same tracks...

Stu

the bikes (and rail) look familiar...
