what's up guys I am all bundled up and you know what that means I've got some
cleaning to do outside in the freezing cold but hey whatever it takes this is
what I'm working on today a subframe swing arm and frame off an oh three
cr250 this is before any cleaning has been done and this is after a lot a lot
of scrubbing has been done keep watching if you want to see this transformation
take place I'm gonna start with the funnest part first the frame I'll begin
by hosing it down with degreaser so I've got the spray bottle filled with simple
green and I'm just gonna spray down the frame let it soak and then hose it off
and start scrubbing I've had the frame soaking for a good amount of time now
I'm gonna hose it off with just the garden hose I normally would use a
pressure washer for this but good ol winner destroyed my pressure washer now
I'm gonna give the frame a nice little scrub down with degreaser and a brush
this will be more of a general cleaning I'll do the detail cleaning later on
at this point the majority of the dirt and grease is off the frame now it's on
to the little details for this step I'll be using the mag wheel cleaner along
with a combination of these brushes this is where the results really come in I
found its easiest to work in sections I'll start at the head of the frame and
the down tube get that as best as I can then move on to the cradle do one spar
and then the other and finish it off with the shock tower
frame is looking pretty good now on to the best part of all getting that shine
and nice factory finish and that's where the scotch brite pad comes into play
this is what's gonna push your frame from just yeah to everyone saying holy
shit I'll show you what's up all right to get a super good finish you're gonna
want to work with the scotch brite pad in the same direction just like that and
you can fold it up to get in tighter areas as well stuff is pretty versatile
the frame is all finished up and man is this thing beautiful you guys want your
frames to look like this I got something for you so click the first link down in
the description to pick up where these scotch-brite wheels trust me on this one
best purchase you'll make in a while and this is what I use to keep up on the 125
as well a year and a half later after building this bike and it still looks as
good as ever so you can use these wheels on anything aluminum engine covers kick
starter brake pedal subframe even the swing arm the list goes on and on now
let's hope I can get the sub frame and swingarm looking just as good so I'm
gonna dunk these guys into the parts washing tank and while they're soaking I
got a giveaway for you I'll be giving away the clutch cover from the cr250 all
you have to do to enter is write down in the comments below what pipe you think I
should run on this bike for these parts I'm gonna scrub them down with a brush
to get rid of dirt and grease and then I'll bust out the scotch-brite and mag
wheel cleaner to brighten them up
pretty hard to get any closer to new than this right here I cannot wait to
start putting this bike back together hope you guys enjoy this one it is
always so much fun seeing the transformation these parts go through I
