a CR500 would rattle the thing to pieces, YZ250 is too big and would also stink without suspnestion mods...anyone know about a YZ125 engine?

Just curious, you do know that the xr200 is a turd on hp right? You'll only get about 12hp out of it.

I'm talking rear wheel numbers here too so when you start making these motors turn the rear end of a quad you can expect a drop. Look at what a 250x or 300ex make at the rear then these number might make more sence to you.

im not really looking for a screaming engine though, just something to mess around on but can still go allright, a XR250 engine i figured would be about the speed of a 250EX which is fine, i just want this quad to mess around on
