ALRIGHT THIS IS THE GUY THAT IS THINKING ABOUT PUTTING A CR500 MOTOR INTO A 2001 400EX FRAME. NOW, I DONT WANT NO DAMN PUMPED UP 250 R MOTOR IN THE THING......ONLY BIG BORE STUFF FOR THE BIG BORE GUY. IS THERE ANYBODY READING OUT THERE THAT HAS ALREADY DONE THIS CONVERSION, AND CAN TELL ME SOME VALUABLE INFO. ON THIS? OR AM I JUST GONNA HAVE TO FEEL MY WAY THROUGH IT, ON MY OWN?
I OWN A 1992 CR500 AND THE 2001 400EX ALREADY. ID LIKE TO GET SOME INFORMATION FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS DONE THIS SWAP ALREADY, OR IS IN THE PROCESS OF DOING IT.

Well I think the biggest problem is the CR500 doesn't have a counter ballancer and will rattle that frame apart. It would be a cool bike though. Just keep the welder out. I haven't personally done one but have seem them in a couple of magazines. I see you live in Western WA. Where at do you live? I live in the Seattle area.
