    86 basket case to 86mx race ready!

    I have a buddy begging me to get back into race! Also gives me an excuse to get back in shape too! I have regreted it every since i sold lt250r to get a trx250r! I was a day late on getting it. So the years passed and i still regret it on missing out on the trx250r. So when i found out my buddy had bought another 250r i was in the market again looking!

    I picked up the basket case right before thanksgiving. I started tearing it down and searching for parts. The frame got gusseted and sent off to powder coaters. Bought Lsr A-arms with axis resi shocks. I didnt get any Lt's though. Got a lsr axle, houser steering stem, champion beadlocks F/R, Omf shrouds, 38mm Air stryker and a few other odds and ends.

    My old lt


    The one I missed out on!


    The basket case






    The tear down




    The gusseting (thanks Pumashine)













    Some of the parts gathered up and cleaned up!







    The parts that i have cleaned were Needing Tlc from where the owners left them lying around!
    Got get the topend freshend up. While waiting on the frame to get back from the powder coaters i'll rebuild the hubs. Install the hubs and spindles to the newer longer arms. Still got alot of parts to gather. But its just odds n ends small piecies.
    Ill keep the pics and updates coming!
