anyone see that 400ex with a 250R motor in it on ebay right now. It looks pretty sweet. Wondering if this might be an option versus an aftermarket frame. But bolting the motor up might be pretty tough. What do you guys think?

You can buy one from servicehonda right now if you want it, they make them.

Its not a true 250r though, not even a replica, but at least they are throwin a 2-stroker in a quad still.

Theres the kit. Only 5 grand. Looks stupid with ex plastics, but with maier race plastics it would look alot better.

I just finished my version of a service honda srx250.I used the 400ex frame and a 96 cr250 motor instead of a 2000 motor like they did.I have only taken up the road a few times but the accelleration is sick.;)
