  • We rebuilt a Kawasaki KLR 250. We picked it up cheap, threw a few hundred dollars in part into it, a lot of labor and time and what we got was a great running dual sport that rides great for under $1000.
    Curious about the parts we used on the bike?

    Use a klr 650 rear shock, you have to slightly widen the lower mount on the inside of it, you can rebuild the 650 klr rear shock

    Turned out nice, u have great skills! Iv been starting to do the same as a hobby, but flipping the bikes for small profit. All Im mainly doing is removing everything from the bike and detailing them. I use plastic restore/polish on original plastics to make them shine. Then give it full maintenance with new fluids, record that so new owner see's it. People pay a lot more $ for a clean bike with maintenance records, plus I get to rip around on different bikes and learn about them.

    I have a 1989 klr 250 that I rebuilt the motor with a wisco 300 mohive cylinder and piston, and bought a used head from a 1994 mohive 300 quad

    DUDE! I just found a KLR 250 for $400. Needs new wiring, lights, and plenty of body pieces. Glad I found your video.

    I liked the old stock seat with the logo...but the new headlights, blinkers and new fender came out great! Cool 😎

    Good job on the bike. I have an 88 model and love it. Cheap and not that outdated compared to the new 250’s. The pre epa models are said to have 28 hp. New bikes are only around 20.

    I remember I had a green KLR 250 in 1992, I thought they were bullet proof back then. I never had any trouble with it.

    Awesome, gave me a few things to be looking forward to when I pull my 4 wheeler out and fix it. Only problem is I'm not a mechanic and never fix one before. Got it in it's current condition.

    I’m looking at a KLR250 and have been searching out videos for it. This is one of the best! I really want one. I hope it works out. The KLR650 is so common around here and very popular but to big and heavy for my use.

    Man awesome video! I have first hand a KLR 250 1990 that looks exactly the same. It’s an amazing bike, never fails! I am in Chile and here it’s pretty hard to find replacement parts. Sometimes think this is the only KLR 250 in the while country haha. Though I have managed and kept the bike with the original look (no offense to your changes). Still loved your video and found it very inspiring. Will consider to copy some of your fixes. Thanks!

    Enjoying the video ,thanks for sharing. Only thing I would do differently is rebuild the forks and fit new fork covers .
