When Honda made the 450r. Why didnt they give it 250r geometry? I mean if thye did, They would be dominating all MX races. Im just wondering if any one knows a good explanation as to why they didnt do this? If they did this, I would sell my Yamaha tomarrow and get one lol

This is just like the question why did they stop making the 250r.

no not really. The 250r was a 2 stroke. They would have stopped making them by now anyway.

But seriously. Just imagine honda making a factory hybrid with all warranties and ****. Man that would be sweet haha

Honda stopped making 250r's because stupid people were getting hurt on them, and getting suing the manufacturers. It's the same reason why they stopped making trikes, LT250's, quadzilla's etc.

And yes Honda is stupid for not copying the 250r geometry. It's not like they would run into any patent problems, because it's their frame that they would be copying.
