After many years of building regular Supermotards out of XR650R ,I tried something else this time.
A bike with the looks based on the iconical Honda Elsinore CR's from the '70 and early '80.
I did rebuild the bike/engine completly:
Engine :new bearings ,rod,gearbox,distribution,oil pump,piston,valves + porting etc etc
custom(in house build) exhaust and a Keihin FCR bored to 43mm,K&N
Frame: New Beringer system,race adjusted forks (lowered),rebuild shock (lowered),new Excels etc etc..
All painted or coated in the famous Elsinore red with some retro/scrambler touches here and there...
It's probl. not everyonce taste but I enjoyed building it...
You find the making of here:

Yes I know.. ;D
It's not to everybody's taste..but I did my own thing (like always.. :P )
beautiful creation,
too red for my taste, but certainly fine.
what kind of paint you used for the engine? (Brand / Type)

Very very very good!!!
It's beautiful ! ! !
I didn't know the existence of this big family called "Elsinore"...
http://honda-elsinore.alp-sys.com/specs/index.html (http://honda-elsinore.alp-sys.com/specs/index.html)
Honda did renew the patent on the name "Elsinore" a while ago, so it's possible that we see a new off-road bike with that name in the (near?) future. ;)
Unfortunately we,ve seen Honda renew all kinds of patents lately, I had multiple dreams about the new 2stroke engine with low mount fuel injection we've seen last summer but i doubt we'll see it on a bike anytime soon. :-\
Still a new Elsinore would be amazing :-* until then congrats for your fine job and for keeping up the name ;)!
Thx ;)
I think the new Elsinore (if he ever comes...) wil be a 4 stroke... but many are dreaming of a direct injected/low emisison 2 stroke Honda dirt bike.
Hopefully the iconical Elsinore look will survive...some kind...2 or 4 sroke.
Some vids of the start-up...
