I think you are talking about the service honda 250r. It uses a 400ex chasis with a cr250 dirtbike motor. IMO not worth it.

If they could do some tranny work, a CRF250 motor would go good in 250r, instead of the 250ex,

But yeah i think your thinking of Servis Honda Bikes, IMO a 250r geometry was better than a 400ex, y not just buy a 250r!

Its so stupid they dont bring back the 250. they still make the dirtbike everybody wants to see the R come back to life. No 4 stroke will ever be like a 2 stroke.

I'd also say you heard about the service honda R. Honda wont make the 250r again, 2 stroke quads are over with. Production on the blaster and banshee are going to be end in a couple years. So honda wouldnt be working on anything 2 stroke, as for the crf250 motor I'm not sure I havent heard anything.
