is it worth it? or should I just buy the regular 265 kit? Is there anything special?

Please state your opinions.

yeah, that's a sweet kit. If you go to LRD's web page they talk all about that kit. It's the exact same thing he ran when he was on his R winning nationals every year. 54hp at the rear wheal is no joke either. Most 330's won't make over 50hp! Plus the fact that it's a PV makes it even nicer.

$2k is a bit tough to swallow though.

LRD had the 250r motor figure out. The main difference is the porting, LRD has one man do all there porting and hes damn good at it. The had jones and balance winning everything when it was a 250r world.

i don't really understand something...why buy the 265 kit for $2k, when the 350 kit is $1900 and offers more power?

The 350 is not legal to race in the 250cc class.

Its also less reliable and requires case machining. The 265 is a bolt-n-go cylinder...
