crf450 in trx450 frame

[Quad Dude]

okay i picked up a super nice 450r roller off craigslist yesterday. came with everything carb all the plastic, nerf bars, bumper, even left side case and stator. any ways i pretty much plan on putting a trx motor in it unless there is a crf motor that would for the most part bolt up. is there any year crf that is just like the trx motor as far as mounting?

[tmccaughin]

the motor mounts on the crf are different than the trx it wuld prolly be just as cost effective to get anothor trx and drop it in i can get pics of the mounts to show you the differencein the to if it would help
thanks

where are you in WI? i didnt think there was this many people on here from WI. we gotta get together some time some place.

if it were me i would put a crf in it, im not a fan on the 450r at all.. i like my 250r, that 450 motor i hate... mabie it was the set up i rode on but i didnt like it...

i would like to see a pic of the difference in the mounts. maybe i could make it work without too much work. i would be lot further a head with a crf motor i think. im pretty sure they come with significant more power stock to stock then the trx. and it would be fun to do.
