everything goes together pretty well, but i cant help but think the pipe is killing the performance a bit, vibes arent bad either like everyone claims...i dont think it vibrates anymore than the bike did

Yeah that intake design looks like it has lots of potential for hybrids of all kinds

How does the 250 run on that frame?

I mean how does it compare to the 400 motor that was on it?

its quicker than a 400 but i think youd have to get the dirtbike pipe on it some how to get true performance

Ok thanks I always wondered how well a 250 would do on that frame. I had an R for years but it was a trike so it was much lighter.

spacer on pivot, mount on the top and bottom frame rail, radiator mounts, rework a pipe, build 1 front motor mount use 1 front motor mount off the 400ex..nothing too crazy

Looks good that front end must feel super lite with that motor
in there.
