Welcome to the ultimate transformation of a 2004 Honda CR250! This video is a special compilation of our build series previously released on the DirtBikeRepair channel, now presented in a seamless, start-to-finish format—no interruptions, no waiting, just pure restoration magic.
This worn-out and abused CR250 came to us in rough shape, sporting faded "black plastic"—the dreaded sign of neglect, where good dirt bikes go to die. But instead of giving up on this two-stroke legend, we decided to bring it back to life, restoring it to better-than-new condition.
From completely disassembling the bike to rebuilding every part with precision, we've documented every detail of this incredible journey. You'll see frame prep, engine work, suspension tuning, fresh plastics, and all the finishing touches that brought this dirt bike back to its former glory—and beyond.
Whether you're a fan of two-strokes, a Honda enthusiast, or just love watching an epic transformation, this video has something for you. Sit back, grab your favorite drink, and enjoy watching this CR250's journey from forgotten and worn out to showroom-worthy.
