mistery frame

[flying dutchman]

heey guys

i ran into a mistery last week.
my friend bought a 400ex but i doesnt have a stock 400ex frame.
is has square tubes and a detacheble sub frame.
does any of you guys know this could be an aftermarket frame?
and what brand it could be?
its using trenga racing a-arms though

greetzz

it cant be a lonestar cause lonestar uses round tubing

[yfzfelix]

could it be an LRD frame? I know they made them but have never seen one

i thought about that possibility to but i have never seen an lrd 400ex frame and lrd's website has been down for like the past decade :(

[krt400ex]

the 300ex frame has square tubing and a removable subframe

[tp300ex]

250r?

[nightmare311]

250r is round. maybe an old leager frame i remember them making a 250r frame that was square.

[st8jacket]

no,a stock 250r frame in square......along with a 300ex frame

[oldskoolex400]

ive seen bill ballances old lrd250r and it had round tubing
i guess it could be a older frame your friend has or maybe the 400 frames were square
who knows:rolleyes:

Is the whole frame square tube?

its not a 300ex frame.
cause it does use the 400ex motor wich wouldnt fit into a 300ex
and it uses 400ex plastics
also have thought about 250r frame but the 400ex engine is to tall to fit in there to

my buddies 300ex is round tubing....dunno

Get some pics of the bike. I am suspicious as to if it is a 300EX frame.

[hotrodhonda400]

a 300 doesn't have a removable sub frame it would about have to be a modded 250r frame

you are correct

[st8jacket]

maybe things are different over seas

[flying dutchman]

finaly we found out what kind of frame it is.
we checked the frame numbers and send them off to several frame builders including: lonestar, walsh, laeger and some more

then roll design send us a reply and told us it is a:

Roll design lobo proto chassis


i wanted to thank your guys for sharing your idea's

im workin on it:D but he still hasnt send me any pics :S

[curious george]

a 400ex motor will fit in a 300ex frame and so will the 400ex plastics it is easy to tell does it have stock a-arms or after market and see if they are like 300ex or 400ex becuase both bolt on with little to no modifying. and is the grab bar detachable and is it huge or small?
