Vintage Dirt Bike Q & A

I have a '76 CR250M motor that has a bad output shaft, some idiot welded the sprocket on the shaft before I bought it. It has a wisco piston the intake and exhaust ports of the head is mildly ported. This thing used to fly but I took it apart to buy a shaft 14 yrs. ago and got into cars, well the rest is history. I've been kicking around selling it, I just don't know what it's worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it is running it could go for $100-180. If it isn't running it may be worth more if you parted it out. The problem with a whole engine is shipping will cost between $65 and $110. What happens is if someone needs a side cover or head they would end up having to pay for shipping everything so they don't bid. Generally every part is worth $20-$35 with things like the carb maybe going for $35-$65. About the only parts I would keep together would be the cylinder + piston + wrist pin and the I wouldn't split the cases. Even the kick starter could go for $35 if it is in good shape.

It also depends on where you live too. For example if you live in Southern California there are probably a lot of local riders who could pick it up in person so they would be willing to bid higher to reflect the savings on shipping cost.

This motor is all apart, any offers?
