Drove down to Bakersfield to meet the dude that gave me $500 bucks for my 97 CR250 motor, carb, electronics
Then Drove up to Visalia to meet the dude that sold me his CR500 motor, carb, electronics for $700.
Looking around craigslist and ebay I cannot find a CR motor, carb, and electronics for under $1500, and a complete running bike for under $2000. I think I did ok.

There is a 500cc race going on right now in my garage!! Kawasaki vs. Honda, KX vs. CR, Steel Frame vs. Aluminum Frame, 1997 vs. 1998, Powervalve vs. Non-Powervalve, 499cc vs. 491cc (.020 over), Green vs. Red!!
The KX chassis is done but waiting on a motor.....
The CR motor is done but waiting on a chassis.....
