I sold my 2007 Outlaw 525 not long ago and bought a 1989 250R. It was way worse shape then I thought it was. I knew the motor was locked up. Turns out it was the left crank bearing. Other broken parts were bent axle, bent steering stem, missing tons of bolts every where, standard bolts in a few holes and thats just the stuff I can think of right now. Also welded up 3 frame cracks.
I split the cases replace all bearings and seals, inspected trans it looked good. Installed new oem clutch with cr500 springs. Replaced almost every bearing on the machine. New esr 310 with trx9 porting, 38mm pwk carb, trx11 pipe. I have tons of stuff I've bought on ebay and forums to be installed. I also have a no link roll design swinger on its way. ASR +2+1 long travel a-arms that should be here in a couple weeks. Installed Fox podium on the front and a podium X on the rear.
Problem I am having right now is I want to run a spacer plate on the reed cage. I have attempted it with stock cage, seems to move my carb to high up and to far back to be able to get around the shock area. I think I will just install the rad valve without a spacer and be done with it.
