2004 Trx250r!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[QuadTrix6]

Sorry if this is old news but I just went to look on service hondas web page for some new parts and saw this. It looks like a 250r engine in a 400ex frame. Has different features like it weighs 310 pounds, backward kick start, 5 speed, etc... They can build it for you with anyparts you would like. Seems interesting. heres a link

That would be a nice bike. Wonder what the $$ tag is on it.

$8000 for a stock frame with all stock suspension pieces. Seems a little expensive if you ask me. Here's what you do. Buy a used 400EX for $3000. Buy a 1-2 year old used CR250 for $3000. Rebuild the top end on the CR for about $200. Have someone build you an exhaust for $500. Sell the stock 400EX engine for $800-$1000 and then sell the remaining CR for $1000. It's just cost you $6700 to build Servicehonda's 250R versus their $8000 asking price. Not only that but you've pocketed at least $1800 from the sale of the old parts. That drops what you've actually paid out to $4900. Then you can buy aftermarket shocks, a-arms, swinger and axle.

Which would you rather have? A stock chassis 400EX with a CR250 motor in it for $8000 that servicehonda built for you or a 400EX frame powered by a CR250 motor with PEP shocks, Laeger a-arms, RPM swingarm, RPM axle, beadlocks and Razr's for $8000?
