Hey guys,
I have a 1988 250R I just pulled the engine apart as she was getting low on compression from alot of riding. I am going to be going to idaho this may with some friends to go duning for the first time. I wouldn't mind find a really good engine with a bigger (maybe a powervalve) cylinder already on it. I think that might be easier than me having to send my motor off to get a big bore installed (I live in canada and it is a real hassle for shipping all the time). What would you guys recomend for a cylinder I am a big guy 6'4 230lbs and I ride real hard (lots of mountain trails,winter river riding. I found this engine but what do u guys think the cylinder just looks like a polished stock one to me? Also does anyone have any roll pegs,used aftermarket steering stem,or a stainless rear brake line, or a good asv clutch lever w/perch for sale?

when are you going to St "A"s in May ?

I will be there memorial day weekend, staying at Desert Oasis RV Park.

that motor if fitted say with a 38-39mm carb, trx 5 pipe should put up 50hp all day long.

That motor would be nice for dunes! The motor is far from stock. I am only curious what's in the bottom end. From what he spent on the external, it looks like the finest is inside as well.

Everything sounds good, except the seller doesn't make any mention of the crank though?
