I sold and installed an integra motor to a guy thgat live around my house. I charged him 500$ for the motor installed.. but that's not the good part.. trhe good part is that I went to his to house to get paid I came thru the garage... there was a lot of junk... but I noticed that there some knid of atv fram chilling there. I looked started looking at it... It was an aftremarkt 250r frame at first I thout it wasastock one but I noticed thet it had a removable subframe!!! I looked like it had been sitting ther for a very long time... Next to it were also some aftermarket aarms of some kind.. the frame lhas a wing arm on it still and has a PEP shock on it and an aftremarket axle on it too.... So I was looking at this stuff and the guy came down in his garage. So I asked him.. IS THAT STUFF YOURS ? he replied.. it was my brothers but he died 2 and a half year ago in a car wreck. I told him I was sorry about his brother and then I asked what it was ??? He replied.. my brother used to race atv and he was gonna build one be he died before he finished it....Be hedint know anything about anything on the frame... he didnt know anything about atv's.... so I asked hime how much he wanted for it... he was like let me ask my parents when they come back from work.. I was like ok... he paid me the 500$ he owed me and I went home...

Later on.. he called me and he told me that his parents told hiom thye wanted 500$ for the stuff. So I jumped in my truck and gave him his money back and ltook the stuff home he even gave me some beadlock with decent tire on them.. what a deal.... !!!

The only problem is that I have no idea what kind of frame this is... one of my friend knows a good bit about aftremarket frames and he think is a LEAGER frame but before I sell it I wanna make shure what it is.... I also have no idea what kinda aarms they are ??? It has and axle on it too.. Durablue ???

HOW DO I TELL WHAT KINDA STUFF IS ON THERE ?????

is there any symbols cut into the frame??? like a STAR or anything??? star could be a LSR


inbetween the 2 front shock mounts is there 2 or 3 circles in the cross member???? if so thats a laeger frame...



u have to really watch in a 250r... it can be stk link, no link, cr500 link, narrow front, std front, etc
