my hybrid idea

[mach1stang]

hey guys i am wanting to build a hybrid and i am thinking of using a 450r frame and suspension and a newer suzuki Z400 motor what do you think of this idea

i usually like the unusual hybrid ideas...like shees with 450 motors, z400's with the zilla motor, of course 250r based chassis with the big thumper motors, buti dont understand taking a 450r and putting a slower 400 motor in that will run in the same class. I can see a 450r with a blaster motor to run in the aircooled class, but it just doenst make sence to me. the only thing i could see it being good for is reverse but why dont you take a raptor motor or something bigger like that. Just my 2 cents, but build what you want to build and if you do it right then you have a cool bike that no one else will have and thats something to be proud of.

well i ride out at m house most of the time and z400 would be quieter then a 450 and i dont need a ton of power for where i ride.

they make quiet pipes for the 450...

if you dont want something super fast and easy to ride get a 400ex

the z400s are faster than a 400ex and i like the 450r frame so if i ever wanted to step to somthing really fast i could .
