whats the easiest hybrid motor to put in a 400ex?
yz426/450 or crf450. If you new what your were doing you could build your self a hybrid in a matter of a day. :eek2:
Some motors need a spacer that slides into the pivot bolt part of the motor. I found out a easy way to make one. You take a old sleeve from your swing arm. Grind it down with a grinder and slide it in and you have a spacer. Works perfect and not hard to make takes about a half hour if that.
The motors need 2 lower mounts made, one upper mount made, front motor mounts, and raddy mounts. If you have a oil tank like the yz426 you need to find a spot to put it or maybe even make a new tank.

Xr 250r bolt it in and ride. But I did tilt mine a little. For chain clearance. Its a blast in the woods. Little sluggish in 4th and 5th though.
