Yeap you guess it another one!!!

Been reading this website for a while now, so I thought I would say G'day.
Im in Perth, been riding a 450 for a while now and because I didnt know anyone
that owned a CR500 to try, I just went and bought one. Thing is a bit rough but the motor was sweet.
In the proccess of converting it into a 02 CR250 frame and using alot
of info from you guys to help me along.
Hopefully it will be finished by Chrissy, but I aint got my fingers crossed.
Most things have been sorted but I just need to find what best airbox to use as my boot is miles off. I heard a 125 might be the go?

Hope the pics work....

Theres a bike shop in Melbourne who is starting to do frame conversions. This was his first CR250 after success with the 450, so it there was a bit of R+D him.
The job he's done is top notch. Im sure after I give him my feedback on this build they will be even better.
I was going to send the frame out to U.S. but stumbled on this guy instead.
Hopefuly he will start selling kits.

Hi asteroid500, doing a gen 2 conversion in next few months. Do these kits suit the gen 1 and 2? Would be interested in a set if it can be arranged. I live in Vic.
