Have had a mid-nineties xl650 salvage title bike given to me and am contemplating mating a 250r or 400ex chassis with the driveline. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is required for this and is there any info on the web concerning this combination? Also, What are your opinions on such a setup? Good?? Bad??

Yeah baby!!! We picked up a XR600 motor awhile ago & are gonna put it in a 400 frame. We have a 250R fame but it's been wrecked pretty bad & is all crooked plus we would have to cut the whole top off to fit the motor in:eek2: This is our next project for my son to flattrack when it's done:eek: :macho
