Top end rebuild on a 2022 CRF250R. New piston, valves checked, and all that. Enjoy! Donate Race Fuel link... www.paypal.com... Thanks for watching! upallnight91@hotmail.com
Up until 33:30 I thought you were just letting nuts and bolts hit the ground lol. Super impressive know-how dude. I have about 50ish hours on a 250fx and It's starting to do the backfire fart pop thing after the engines warmed up and trying to start again. Never done a valve adjustment check but this is helping with the confidence to at least try, thank you man. 👍Good stuff
LoL, Thanks! Yeah them egg corns dropping on the roof are crazy. The backfire fart pipe and such may be more of a fuel thing then a valve thing. Running lean causes the pops and fart sounds. Wouldnt hurt to check the fuel pump while your checking the valves. You could have a pump starting to act up or get tired.
@@McMyerz223 you will have to check the valve clearance again shortly after you clearance them..the intake valves will build up a very hard layer of carbon on the valve faces and valve seats that breaks off after you give the valves clearance causing the problem to continue and eventually destroying the valve seats that are not replaceable !!! and get yourself a leak down tester that will tell you if your valves are too tight or not !

I been working on her bikes for a few years now and her boyfriends bikes for like 8 years now. We often ride together at tracks and such. A lot of people I do work for I am also friends with and ride with as I'm out riding pretty much every weekend. For sure I'm ready for the larger shop. Its getting so tight back here and I'm looking forward to having the space to test bikes on a little course on the property.

@@UpAllNight91 that’s rad!!if I see her bike on the tv for Supercross features ima let everyone know upallnightchris wrenched on that! I seen it on the tubeee🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Great video. I find your repair methods very practical. Lots of people want to push cutting valve seats at 30 hrs. I see some interesting changes from the 20-21 CRF250R engine design. The intake cam on the 20-21 has the cam gear bolted on which makes install much easier. Also noticed the OE piston pin did not appear to be DLC coated. They were on the 20-21 engine. I think they took a step back. Sure the single exhaust is simpler, but the two exhaust port design had more potential for builders/tuners.
Thanks and good eye!. Yeah the bolts on the cam surely would have made that easier. It was almost impossible to get the cams in and on the chain but it is doable, just barely though.
I know dude! Thats like 4 videos in 4 days. But it just happened that way. When jobs come through that I feel are video worthy I have to grab the moment and it seems 4 came though this week. Now I'm all worn out and thankful for the weekend lol. Tomorrow I go riding and then its back to monday! But Supercross is on tonight!!!
Found your channel the other day and subscribed. You do a very excellent job of explaining everything and your video show great detail with how the work needs to be done. If I lived in Florida I might just take my bike to you. But I live in Colorado.😂 by the way are your dogs chows?
Hello Zach, yeah Colorado would be a long drive lol. Yes they are full blooded chow chows. Great guard dogs, keeps the bikes nice and safe! Thanks for subbing and reaching out. Hope your having a great weekend!
@@UpAllNight91 That's awesome yes they are great guard. Dogs I used to have one myself when I was a kid. great dogs. Weekend was pretty lame dot like 6 inches a snow over here over the weekend and so no riding.

as you can see a single cylinder 4 stroke motocross engine today has dozens of moving parts ! people like to say that old school 2 strokes have no technology and have not changed in 20 years ..i got news for you 2 strokes will never change as it only has 3 moving parts but are made today with materials of modern alloys of new metallurgy , that is why a 2 stroke GasGas MC125 makes 40 hp with only 3 moving parts ..now thats what real technology is all about...everything else is bullshit
Thanks! She only wanted a new piston. The valves checked out very well and so did the timing chain so she should be good with only the piston. I think she is also planning on selling it soon to move to a Yamaha. Shes a pretty fast chic, been riding since she was like 7.
@@jvke.p For sure. I was even debating a YZ250f myself. I usually own a 450 along with my smokers but right now I'm down to just two smokers. I think I'm done with 450's for the time being but I am interested in a 250f
@@jvke.p For sure. And sometimes that brute force torque of a 450 is so nice. I think I will get another one down the road, but just wanna take a break from them and play with some lighter more friendlier bikes for a little bit. Dial myself down some, play it safe. And then later try a 450 again with a little more respect hopefully lol
I will oil up a cylinder and then dry wipe the oil off if its a brand new cylinder with fresh cross hatching. But on a used cylinder a dry piston install works well and reduces the chances of blowing smoke.
Hi great work. Could you tell what's the purpose of the dimple on the exhaust cam opposite side of the lobe. Looks like a ball bearing. Is it to do with decompression mechanism
@@daithimurphy1832Yes, the auto decompresson cracks the exhaust valve open as it passes the valve cam bucket on the base side of the cams circle. Once it starts up and starts spinning fast that tucks away and shuts off the auto decompress.
Is it bad to use brake clean or parts cleaner on a rag/paper towel to clean off gasket material? I used that when removing old head gasket material on my 450RL and it melted the old material off like it was nothing.
I didnt go to school for it. Mainly self taught due to my desire to wanna ride every weekend and being on a budget. I did start out as a auto mechanic so that kinda gave me a leg up when I started learning motorcycles but I never took any classes or courses. The internet has surely helped out huge though.
lets go ahead and take a chance on the weakest link in the timing chain holding up for another hold season of rippng the hell out if it..but if it breaks too bad...so im betting the price of the cam chain against the cost of a new motor that will only cost around $5000 dollars
Honestly have you ever seen one of these break a chain? I havent. But I have seen other model bikes that have before and it didn't happen out of no where. They need to get completely stretched and kinky before they will actually break. The ones on this model bike are pretty tough. This one was way healthy and I honestly dont see it being a risk of breaking anytime soon.
@@UpAllNight91 you can not see it breaking anytime soon because the wear that has taken place on the pins holding it together is hidden from your eyes to see that is typical of a hyvo cam chain design ..that is what you have in front of you..., after since you said you have never seen what happens when they break usually one end will hang out the bottom of the engine cases and the other end will wrap its self around the cam sprocket cause the camshaft towers to break off but before that happens as the engine will most of the time be revved out cause the valves to beat the piston to death plus the piston will bend the valves side ways and drive them through the valve seats....but there is good news as honda has a one part number that will fix everything broken ! its called " engine assembly" usually only half the cost of a new bike ..so lets gamble the price of a new cam chain on half the price for a 4 stroke motocross bike , after all its not your money ..

@@donniebaker5984 They get kinky when the pins wear out, and they also show stretch as the pins wear out. Both can be seen and felt way before a chain is about to break. Its not my money but its my reputation.
I really need your expertise. I just did a top end & I removed air box/sub frame for cleaning. I have 2 left over plugs on wiring harness that are under tank, near throttle body. My bike is identical to this one 23' crf 250r. Do they have extra plugs to accommodate a X model maybe? Thanks for your time
Hmm. I haven't worked on the X model so I don't know if it has extra connections. I can say a lot of bikes do have extra connections that are not being used. I would look around good, if you can find anywhere it plug in, and if it is not kicking a trouble code (flashing light on the handlebars) then its probably good to go. It will kick the trouble code light if something is unplugged that's related to engine management.
It's a R model 250. 2023. Two extra plugs & starter just does half rev & stops. I can hear fuel pump whine. If I cross solenoid it turns over.... I'm beyond frustrated with this bike
@@jasonweatherford5710 The half rev and stop, if the ECU doesnt see the motor spin fast enough at the stator when you hit the start button the ECU pulls out on the starting by cutting the power to the starter relay. Was this bike running ok before the top end job?
@UpAllNight91 yes sir, ran just fine. My son said he washed the airbox while it was removed. Hopefully the air temp sensor got wet & is causing the problem. Have one on order
I have a question about piston ring end gap. Should we check ring end gap on wiseco piston? Because on my yz450f piston ring end gap 0.033mm (0.011in), but it should be 0.038mm (0,015in). Should I grind piston ring end gap?
Hello. It doesnt hurt to check but be sure to use the ring end gap wiseco suggest with their piston and not the ring end gap suggested for the OEM piston. I made a video on this topic and I highly suggest watching it first. Here is a link ruclips.net/video/5wdMNpgAAYo/видео.html
@@UpAllNight91 Looks like I'll have to grind the piston ring gap. According to the recommendation from Wiseco, the minimum ring gap should be 0.038mm (for a 97.01mm cylinder), and when I take their ring and insert it into the cylinder (it’s stock), the piston ring gap is 0.033m, the 0.038mm feeler gauge won’t fit through.
@@maximzalessky227 Ok. Yeah just a hair on the tighter side. Its close enough that if you wanted to run it without filing it will be ok, just break it in well. Thats probably what I would do as its really close. But wouldn't hurt to file it either.
Hi I checked fuel system on 2020 crf250r. It sprays fuel when injector is out of the bike but when reinstall in and turn it over I can't see it spraying when I look into the throttle body. Is this correct. Bike isn't starting but I think this could be down to low compression.

How often is this work necessary on a really conservative rider who takes care of the oil and air filter? What's the longest you could go roughly? They say 15 hours but obviously thats BS
On a 250f I suggest every 75 hours for track use. It can be shorted to 50 for a faster ride and even 40 for a really fast rider. But if its used for slower easier trail riding then 100 hours will be just fine.

Do you have a Facebook I can send you a vid of a sound on my bike and u tell me if it sounds fine?
Yes I do Christopher Upallnight. But you can also email it to upallnight91@hotmail.com
How often is this work necessary on a really conservative rider who takes care of the oil and air filter? What's the longest you could go roughly? They say 15 hours but obviously thats BS
On a 250f I suggest every 75 hours for track use. It can be shorted to 50 for a faster ride and even 40 for a really fast rider. But if its used for slower easier trail riding then 100 hours will be just fine.
You got Facebook?
Yes sir, Christopher Upallnight is my name there
