1992 LT250r restoration thread... pics

fx4pitrone · 01-18-2012, 06:20 PM

I thought I'd post up some pics of my 92 Quadracer I restored recently.... a lot of blood sweat and money went into this... and now after all of that work I don't want to ride it and get it dirty!!!!!

Very nice work!

I know the feeling about not wanting to get it dirty. I'm overhauling a 89 trx 250r and will probably be too afraid to get it dirty to ride it

Yea it's hard.... lol.... so much easier to beat up on a new, dime-a-dozen 4 stroke, than these old dinosaurs that are harder to get parts for.... and it's a different game when you put something together yourself and spnd SOOOOOO much time and $$$$$ on!

Here are a few of the naked progress pics along the way....

Are there videos of this bike on YouTube?! I swear I've seen that exact bike on there

Also, I just watched your videos of it on tumbler (bad ass truck btw man. Love it) and if you don't mind me asking, where did you find your front bumper, that stock seat cover, and the fendr supports at and also how much were they? If you don't mind telling that is.

fx4pitrone · 01-18-2012, 10:10 PM

Yea there are but the bike is naked in them.... it was just me starting the bike and some of the motor break in......

fx4pitrone · 01-18-2012, 10:15 PM

This one is one of the only vids I have of it.....

Yea I creeped through your pictures and watched it hahaha! But man, you did a professional level of restoration on her. I mean I thought I was fairly organized with my little drawers but you had cups and buckets and GEEZ!

God I love these old restores... They just scream "Come have the time of your life on me!"

wobamf · 02-01-2012, 05:22 PM

Top notch work, love to see these come back to life with such attention to detail.
