I picked up a project 1983 CR480.

First question will a Ignition system from a 1997 CR250 fit in to the 480 cases and work.

I know the Ignition on the right hand side so it will be spinning backwards.

Is there anyone make a Mid to Top end pipe for this bike.

And anyone knows where to get new Plastic for this bike that reasonable price just about everything I found so far is expensive.

Can I powder coat the engine cases and I not sure if I can powder coat the Cylinder and Head.

Everyone has a different view of what is reasonable so here is some options and you can decide

Thanks for the Info Sandblaster

good luck with your build, I'll be watching, want to see this thing turn out like a museum piece, then go out and get it dirty!

I will be slowing down on the build for a while It fall softball time for my daughter so I will be busy on my days off with her.

I built this skid plate for a friend a couple years ago he sold his 480 and gave it back so I was fitting it on to mu 480 I going to change the rear skid plate mounting.





I reinstalled the Rear linkage and shock so I have a roller once again.

Repainted the Hubs

I was getting ready to install the center case bearings but this stopped me in my tracks a crack but it can be fixed.

At least I got the other half of the center case transmission stacked and loaded up.

I dropped the crank into the good halve of the cases I still waiting for the other halve to get welded up.







I also made a new end cap for my silencer it was missing when I got the bike.
