250-500cc 2008 WR 250 Restoration Thread

[Fat Tire Flyer]

Thanks for the reply.. Was hoping you were in Ontario so I might use the same powder coater.. But BC is a little far from here.. Checked out the OPP Racing website and they distribute Samco hoses which are same manufacturer as mine.. I hope you ordered a long while ago because they can take about 8 weeks to receive them (or at least mine did).. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your re-build.. Cheers..

Yeah I ordered them about 6 weekgo and the nice thing is the Canadian distributor is right by my work. Ordered the red hoses.

These are with the guards installed. These fit nicely and are so far my favorite guards/braces. The last ones I had were just wrap around guards and they did nothing to protect from bending.

Best rad brace install technique I have seen yet! Put them on a bare frame and don't worry about all the hoses and wires and such getting in the way.

Sand blasting the original paint off was the costly part. I used a you blast place and it ran me 175 bucks. The powder coating wasaround 145. The silicone hoses are from a company called OPP Racing I got my hoses in red to contrast of the black frame. I belive they are located in the UK as well. Last answer to youy question I live in the lower mainland of BC.

Nice work on the bike. It sure is nice to be able to work on our bikes when the weather is bad outside
BTW you might check around if you do another resto. The guy I use charged me 30$ for the sandblast and 100 to powdercoat my frame and a set of hubs. He does excellent work, most of his business is with Frieghtliner.
The thing about sanblasting is you need a 20HP compressor or bigger to run a big nozzle, which gets the job done Pronto.

The bike is an animal and the sound it make is almost 4 stroke like. Everything is perfect and this girl does anything with ease just point and go. It will do anything. Any questions just ask.
