This bike started with both. Take a look underneath it and you'll immediately see what we're talking about. The aluminum frame rails are exceptionally clean and the bottom of the original Honda CR500 engine cases are beautiful. The swingarm, front wheel and other original components show the same thing; Mint & Original. The result is a fresh custom aluminum-frame CR500 powered by a completely rebuilt CR500 Engine Loaded With Performance Upgrades Including the Millar Race Engineering Cylinder, fitted with premium suspension, controls, exhaust, wheels, brakes and one-off Kaplan Cycles graphics. 70 hours of professional shop labor at our current $150/hour rate went into this machine = $10,500 in labor plus more than $5,200 in new parts, for approximately $15,700 invested in the restoration and build before even factoring in the value of the CR500 engine and aluminum-frame core. This is a serious, fresh, track-ready CR500 build. MILLAR RACE ENGINEERING CR500 CYLINDER The engine is the centerpiece of this motorcycle. We had a Millar Race Engineering cylinder in inventory, we were saving it for the right build. Adam Millar is one of the most respected names in high-performance CR500 engine development, and his custom porting package is designed to deliver something far more important than simply producing a giant peak horsepower number. It makes usable power. Some highly modified CR500 cylinders can produce impressive dyno numbers but become difficult to ride on a motocross track. This Millar setup is different. It begins pulling extremely hard from lower in the RPM range than a stock CR500 and continues pulling beyond where the stock engine signs off. The powerband is massive. A professional motocross racer who test rode this machine described it as the fastest motorcycle he had ever ridden. Engine build includes: Fresh Millar Race Engineering performance cylinder with Full c ustom porting package New piston New piston rings New base gasket New Modified cylinder head for increased compression Engine cases split and completely rebuilt Vapor-honed crankcases New crankshaft New connecting rod New crank bearings New crank seals Completely new clutch assembly New shifter seal New kickstarter seal Rebuilt water pump New water-pump seals and gaskets New engine gaskets throughout New engine seals throughout New engine hardware Rebuilt and polished kickstarter Boyesen Factory Racing ignition cover Boyesen Factory Racing clutch cover Boyesen reed valves Brand-new Twin Air filter Pro Circuit CR500AF expansion chamber Pro Circuit Factory Sound stainless/aluminum silencer From the bottom of the crankcases to the top of the cylinder head, this engine has been Completely Rebuilt. It is all brand new inside. The engine presently has only three heat cycles and approximately Ten minutes of ride time following completion. PRO CIRCUIT CR500AF EXHAUST The bike is fitted with a genuine Pro Circuit AF exhaust system, specifically designed for CR500 aluminum-frame conversions. The expansion chamber carries the AF designation and is paired with the matching Pro Circuit Factory Sound silencer. It sounds exactly like a properly built CR500 should. Deep, crisp and absolutely ferocious when it comes onto the pipe. We run this machine on VP Racing race fuel, which is recommended due to the higher-compression cylinder-head configuration. ALUMINUM FRAME & CHASSIS One of the biggest factors in determining whether an aluminum-frame CR500 build is worth doing is the condition of the chassis. This one was the right candidate. The lower frame rails are exceptionally clean. The rails were polished and the remainder of the aluminum frame was carefully Scotch-Brited to restore its original appearance. The original swingarm is equally impressive. Chassis service includes: Polished frame rails Scotch-Brited aluminum frame Steering-head bearings inspected and regreased Swingarm bearings serviced Linkage bearings serviced All Chassis bearings and bushings inspected & lubricated Excellent original swingarm Extensive new chassis hardware When you see clean frame rails, a clean swingarm and a clean original front wheel, those are all good indicators of the type of life a motorcycle lived before restoration. This one started with excellent bones. COMPLETELY REBUILT SUSPENSION The suspension has been completely serviced front and rear. Front suspension: Completely rebuilt forks New fork seals Fresh fork oil Pro Circuit red-anodized triple clamps Rear suspension: Completely rebuilt rear shock New shock seals Fresh shock fluid Fresh nitrogen charge New shock bumper The bike is ready to be ridden or raced. FRONT END & CONTROLS Everything the rider touches is new. Up front you'll find: Brand-new Dunlop front tire New front brake rotor Completely serviced front brake system New front fender New front number plate Pro Circuit red-anodized triple clamps Brand-new Renthal Fatbar handlebars Brand-new Renthal crossbar pad New ProTaper quick-adjust clutch perch Gold quick-adjust clutch lever New clutch cable Brand-new ODI grips New fuel-tank breather The controls feel exactly the way a freshly built motorcycle should. WHEELS, TIRES, CHAIN & SPROCKETS The original front wheel remains on the motorcycle and is in excellent condition. The original rear rim had a slight imperfection, so rather than compromise the build, we replaced it. The rear wheel now features: Brand-new Takasago Excel rim Takasago Excel spline-drive spokes Brand-new rear Dunlop tire Brand-new black rear sprocket Brand-new gold drive chain New chain sliders New chain rollers Excellent chain guide The front tire still has its

The completely redesigned 2002 CR250R introduced Honda’s third-generation twin-spar aluminum chassis, an all-new 249cc case-reed engine, and electronically controlled RC exhaust valve. This combination delivered outstanding handling, a broad and manageable powerband, and approximately 52 horsepower at the crank. The platform remained in production through 2007, marking the end of Honda’s iconic CR250R two-stroke dynasty. The 2002 season also became one of the most historic in American motocross. Riding the Honda CR250R, Ricky Carmichael won all 12 rounds and swept an unprecedented 24 of 24 motos in the AMA 250 Motocross Championship—one of the most dominant perfect seasons in the history of the sport. This machine has been finished with a complete number-four Ricky Carmichael tribute graphics package honoring that incredible achievement. Complete Frame-Up Restoration This low-hour original was taken completely down to the frame and professionally restored. Every major component, nut, bolt, and system was inspected, serviced, rebuilt, restored, or replaced as necessary. More than $4,500 was invested in new parts, along with approximately 40 hours of professional shop labor at $150 per hour. The total investment in the restoration exceeds $10,500. Since completion, the motorcycle has only been ridden briefly up and down a driveway for testing. It has not been ridden on a motocross track. Rebuilt 249cc Two-Stroke Engine The engine was rebuilt and thoroughly serviced with: New piston and rings New base gasket New head gasket Serviced RC exhaust valve Rebuilt carburetor New fuel lines and drain hoses Brand-new Twin Air filter Original airbox professionally cleaned and preserved New clutch New Hinson Racing Components clutch cover Fresh VP racing fuel Rebuilt Cooling System With New Coolant, Gaskets, Hoses & Over Sized Aluminum Radiators The original engine cases are in remarkably clean condition, providing further evidence that this was a low-hour, well-preserved machine before restoration. Pro Circuit Performance Exhaust This CR250R has been upgraded with a complete Pro Circuit exhaust system consisting of: Pro Circuit Works expansion chamber Pro Circuit R304 Factory Sound shorty silencer The R304 shorty gives the CR250R incredibly crisp throttle response, an aggressive power delivery, and that unmistakable factory two-stroke sound. This motorcycle absolutely barks and pulls extremely hard. Suspension, Wheels and Brakes The chassis and running gear received extensive attention: Rebuilt 47mm Showa inverted forks New fork bushings New fork seals Fresh fork oil Original Showa rear shock in excellent condition Brand-new Impact lightweight aluminum wheel set Anodized red wheel hubs Brand-new front brake rotor Rebuilt front braking system New front brake pads Fresh brake fluid Brand-new front and rear tires Brand-new Renthal front and rear sprockets Brand-new gold Renthal chain Upgraded wide foot pegs The original frame is in outstanding condition. The shock body shows virtually none of the typical boot wear found on heavily used motocross machines. New Controls and Rider Equipment The cockpit has been completely refreshed with: Anodized red triple clamps Brand-new Renthal handlebars Brand-new Renthal grips New Renthal crossbar pad New quick-adjust clutch perch New clutch lever New front brake lever Polished rear brake pedal Polished kickstarter Excellent original shifter New Plastics and Ricky Carmichael Tribute Graphics The bodywork has been completely renewed with: New front fender New front number plate New radiator shrouds New side panels New rear fender New seat cover Complete number-four Ricky Carmichael tribute graphics package The red anodized components, lightweight wheels, Pro Circuit exhaust, and factory-inspired graphics come together beautifully. This is a genuinely spectacular CR250R that looks every bit as good as it sounds and performs. Ready to Race or Display This CR250R is fully serviced, properly sorted, and ready for its next owner. Take it to the track, add it to a serious motocross collection, display it in your showroom, or simply enjoy owning one of the most historically significant Honda two-strokes ever produced. Clean, properly restored 2002–2007 CR250Rs are becoming increasingly difficult to find—especially examples finished to this level. Between its perfect-season Ricky Carmichael connection, final-generation aluminum chassis, legendary two-stroke engine, extensive restoration, and premium upgrades, this is a world-class machine.

AN END-OF-AN-ERA TWO-STROKE LEGEND! ONE OF THE FINAL FULL RESTORATIONS BY KAPLAN CYCLES' LEGENDARY MASTER TECHNICIAN, "THE WIZARD"! Feast your eyes on this absolutely spectacular 2002 Honda CR250R, a legendary two-stroke motocross machine that has undergone a comprehensive, professional, frame-off restoration by one of Kaplan Cycles' most experienced master technicians, affectionately known as "The Wizard." This is no ordinary vintage motocross bike. This is an extensively rebuilt, meticulously detailed, Ricky Carmichael-inspired CR250R with 70 hours of professional restoration labor, $3,751 in new parts, and a total documented investment of $14,251! From the completely rebuilt engine with a brand-new Hot Rods crankshaft and Millennium Technologies Nikasil-plated cylinder to the rebuilt Showa suspension, custom red anodized hubs, Pro Circuit exhaust, fresh Dunlop MX34 tires, and Ricky Carmichael replica graphics, this Honda represents an extraordinary amount of craftsmanship, attention to detail, and investment. And here's what makes this one particularly special: This is expected to be one of the very last complete frame-off Honda two-stroke restorations performed by The Wizard. After decades of turning out extraordinary motorcycles and routinely working 40–60 hours per week at Kaplan Cycles, The Wizard has entered semi-retirement, now working only approximately 8–12 hours per week. His specialty has always been Honda two-stroke motocross motorcycles, and this CR250R represents the culmination of a lifetime of mechanical experience, craftsmanship, and passion. Opportunities to purchase motorcycles built to this standard by this particular craftsman are becoming increasingly rare. 2002 HONDA CR250R – THE RICKY CARMICHAEL ERA The 2002 Honda CR250R occupies a special place in motocross history. This was the era when Honda's legendary two-stroke CR250R was among the most formidable competition motorcycles on the planet. The 2002 model featured Honda's electronically controlled RC exhaust power-valve system, an advanced aluminum twin-spar frame, Showa suspension, and an incredibly powerful 249cc liquid-cooled two-stroke engine. It was also the beginning of Ricky Carmichael's legendary Honda years. In 2002, Carmichael captured both the AMA Supercross Championship and the AMA 250cc National Motocross Championship, accomplishing an incredible feat in the outdoor nationals: a perfect season, winning all 24 motos across 12 rounds! His dominance helped cement the Honda CR250R's reputation as one of the most iconic motocross machines of its generation. Honda would ultimately discontinue the CR250R after the 2007 model year, making these late-generation aluminum-frame two-strokes increasingly desirable among enthusiasts, collectors, and riders who appreciate the unmistakable sound, power delivery, and character of a high-performance two-stroke. This beautifully restored 2002 CR250R pays tribute to that legendary era with its Ricky Carmichael replica graphics, carefully selected performance components, and factory-inspired presentation. COMPLETE ENGINE REBUILD – BRAND-NEW CRANKSHAFT, REPLATED CYLINDER & MUCH MORE! The centerpiece of this motorcycle is its professionally rebuilt 249cc two-stroke engine. This wasn't simply a top-end refresh or a carburetor cleaning. The entire engine was removed, disassembled, the crankcases split, and the engine rebuilt from the crankshaft up. Engine restoration highlights: Brand-new Hot Rods crankshaft assembly Brand-new crankshaft main bearings Complete engine seal replacement Complete engine gasket replacement Cylinder professionally replated with Nikasil by Millennium Technologies Brand-new ProX standard-bore piston New ProX clutch components Brand-new clutch springs New VForce reed cage New Boyesen reed components as listed in the restoration work Keihin carburetor professionally cleaned and rebuilt New carburetor drain hoses New fuel lines New Twin Air / performance air filter RC power-valve system cleaned and restored Power-valve cover refinished Water pump serviced and restored New engine case bolt kit New OEM Honda shift lever Complete cleaning and detailing of engine cases Refinished ignition and clutch covers Refinished water-pump cover High-temperature, 500-degree gloss-black engine enamel on selected components The attention to detail is immediately apparent. The engine cases were thoroughly cleaned and carefully detailed while the engine was removed from the chassis. The ignition cover, clutch cover, power-valve cover, and water-pump housing were refinished to give the engine an exceptionally clean, factory-inspired appearance. The new Hot Rods crankshaft and Millennium-replated cylinder represent major mechanical investments that provide a solid foundation for years of enjoyment with appropriate maintenance. This is the level of engine restoration typically associated with a serious competition build, not an ordinary used motocross bike. PRO CIRCUIT PERFORMANCE EXHAUST – THE SOUND OF A LEGEND! Nothing captures the excitement of a classic 250cc two-stroke Honda quite like the sound of a properly tuned CR250R. This motorcycle is equipped with a performance Pro Circuit exhaust system featuring a Pro Circuit Factory Sound 304 stainless-steel-series silencer. The combination of the rebuilt engine, upgraded reed intake components, rebuilt Keihin carburetor, and Pro Circuit exhaust delivers the crisp throttle response and unmistakable two-stroke exhaust note that made these motorcycles legendary. This CR250R is an absolute ripper! The motorcycle has been operated using VP Racing fuel and Maxima Super M two-stroke oil.

Condition: Listing details from the bike's own eBay listing: Year: 1979; Make: Honda; Model: CR250; Mileage: 100,000 miles; Engine: 250 cc; Type: Dirt/Off-Road; Color: Red. This motorcycle was restored . Not preserved with a mish-mash of stock and reproduced parts but restored . I would estimate it's 90% OEM. Title not available - Bill Of Sale Only Every effort and expense was taken to use only original Honda parts on this build. Every component was disassembled, inspected, rebuilt, restored or replaced to return it to “As Delivered” condition. Throughout the restoration, original factory Honda hardware was used in 100% of the applications. Attention was paid to which bolts/nut originally came Cadmium Plated (not all were) and were finished in Yellow Zink to mimic Cadmium. All the small rubber grommets, seals, frame protector, little gas-line clamps and any item that typically got tossed are present. The engine was completely rebuilt and painted the correct "Satin" Tahitian Red. Rod, Cylinder, Wiseco Piston, Bearings, Seals, Gaskets, Clutch The frame/swingarm/tank were blasted, inspected and painted in the correct "Gloss" Tahitian Red. The front fender, rear fender, side plates and front number plate are original and have been restored and painted in the same "Gloss" Tahitian Red as the tank and frame, so the match is perfect. The undersides received the "Matte Red just like the originals. The wheel restoration included Black Cerakoted Stock Hubs laced to stock rims with Buchanan Spoke Kits. Bearing and seals were replaced. Tubes, Rim Locks are off-the-shelf stuff Tires are IRC and have that Vintage Bridgestone M22 vibe. The swingarm received new bearings, seals and spacer as did both hubs The stock Showa shocks were rebuilt/restored using Ohlin Shock Internals. The original Honda front forks were completely disassembled and rebuilt. It does come with a restored OEM kickstand, new OEM spring and bolt List of non-OEM parts Cables Tires Tubes Rim Locks Brake Shoes Throttle Tube Spokes Handle Bars Seat Cover Frame # CR250R-2110635 Engine #-CR250RE-2101817 No title = Bill of Sale Only No interest in crating and/or shipping. Will assist with pickup only. I have no interest in putting gas in this example and start it. I have receipts and approx 50 photos of the complete engine build. Look at the attention to detail and accept that anyone willing to go to the length of this build isn't gonna skimp on the engine. It's likely a collection piece rather than something that would get ridden.

FEAST YOUR EYES ON THIS ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR RED ROCKET! This is one of the most iconic, historically significant, and visually stunning motocross motorcycles ever produced. Honda's legendary Red Rocket revolutionized motocross racing in the late 1970s, and nearly five decades later, its unmistakable bright red finish, aggressive stance, and race-bred engineering still make it one of the most desirable vintage motocross machines in the world. This particular example has undergone an extraordinary, comprehensive frame-off, nut-and-bolt restoration by the professional restoration team here at Kaplan Cycles. With 89 hours of professional labor and $4,227 in parts, this motorcycle represents a documented $21,777 restoration investment, NOT INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL COST OF THE MOTORCYCLE! Including the acquisition of a pristine, restoration-worthy original motorcycle, the total investment replacement cost approaches $25,000. The result is an absolutely breathtaking, professionally restored 1979 Honda CR250R that looks spectacular, runs fantastic, starts easily, and has been painstakingly rebuilt with the finest available components, including a number of desirable period-style performance upgrades. This is a serious, comprehensive, professional restoration performed by the most experienced vintage motorcycle restoration operation in the country. THE LEGEND OF THE HONDA RED ROCKET When Honda introduced the original CR250M Elsinore in 1973, it set an entirely new standard for production motocross motorcycles. Lightweight, powerful, and purpose-built for competition, the original Elsinore quickly earned a reputation as one of the most influential motocross machines of its era. However, by the middle of the decade, Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki had dramatically advanced their motocross technology. Honda needed something revolutionary to reclaim its position at the front of the pack. Honda's response was the legendary RC factory racing program, which helped establish the design direction for an entirely new generation of production motocross machines. When the radically redesigned CR250R debuted for 1978, the motocross world took notice. The new Red Rocket featured aggressive works-inspired styling, a lightweight chassis, a powerful two-stroke engine, and dramatically improved suspension and handling. It looked like a factory racing motorcycle because that was exactly the image Honda intended. The 1979 model continued this legendary design and remains one of the most instantly recognizable motorcycles of the golden age of American motocross. Nearly 50 years later, the Red Rocket is still one of the most beautiful motocross motorcycles ever manufactured. And when restored to this level, it's truly a work of art. COMPREHENSIVE KAPLAN CYCLES FRAME-OFF RESTORATION 89 HOURS PROFESSIONAL LABOR – $17,550 NEW PARTS AND COMPONENTS – $4,227 TOTAL RESTORATION INVESTMENT – $21,777 This motorcycle was completely disassembled down to the bare frame. The engine was removed, the entire chassis was dismantled, and the restoration began with an exceptionally clean original motorcycle. One of the most important factors in a high-quality restoration is the condition of the original machine. This CR250R had an outstanding foundation: Pristine original frame rails Excellent original frame down tubes Straight, undamaged chassis Exceptionally clean original swingarm Excellent original engine cases Original Honda components worthy of professional restoration The underside of the frame is particularly impressive, with beautiful, straight frame rails showing the quality of the original motorcycle. The frame refinished in the correct original Honda factory-style red finish. The swingarm received the same comprehensive treatment. Every major assembly was disassembled, inspected, cleaned, serviced, rebuilt, restored, or replaced as required. Throughout the restoration, original factory Honda hardware was preserved wherever practical, professionally cleaned and re-zinc plated, while numerous other fasteners were replaced with new hardware. This attention to detail extends to areas most restorations never address. From the steering stem to the rear axle, from the engine mounting hardware to the chain rollers, the quality of the workmanship is evident everywhere you look. ENGINE – COMPLETE MECHANICAL RECONDITIONING The legendary Honda 250cc two-stroke engine received extensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration. Engine restoration highlights: Engine removed from chassis for comprehensive restoration Original engine cases professionally vapor honed Engine cases and covers refinished Cylinder professionally refinished Brand-new piston Brand-new piston rings New cylinder base gasket New cylinder head gasket New spark plug Clutch rebuilt with new clutch components and springs Ignition side cleaned, inspected, and restored Carburetor completely rebuilt New carburetor jets New carburetor drain lines New intake components New reeds Brand-new Twin Air air filter Fresh fuel lines Original engine mounts cleaned, vapor honed, and restored New or professionally re-zinc-plated engine hardware New cylinder head and base fasteners New intake mounting hardware Restored original kickstarter with new mounting bolt Brand-new shift lever The engine was carefully assembled, tuned, and tested by our experienced technicians.
