For the last year, I've been slowly rebuilding my old race bike from the ground up.
Some short backstory - My dad helped me buy this thing brand new back in 2005 at the ripe age of 14. I was definitely the youngest kid rocking a 250 2-stroke at the time - luckily I had grown up riding quads and bikes and my parents were confident that I could handle it.
From there, I built and raced the bike for about 6 years before selling it while away at college.
Last summer, I found it for sale largely unchanged from my ownership but totally neglected. I regretted selling this bike essentially from day 1, so needless to say I had to have it.
Here are some official "completed" photos as well as a video from the first day I really opened up the motor, all thanks to the infamous @mooch29.
