Reminds me of a young guy I raced with years ago that had a dirtbike 250R in his 400EX, everything else was stock. It had more vibration in it but man that kid was fast on it. Great job on the build.

thanks for the comment. if you read through the whole thread you know i basically built it with leftover parts from my 86 trx250r and my 99 400ex. funny thing is after i built this, i sold the ex and my 250r sits. i like being out there with something to talk about. people always thought the 250r was unique in my area. this has other riders very interested. plus, its fun to build our own unique machines.

10 yrs. ago my buddys got me into MX racing, they had trx250R an Banshee's. All you heard was the 2 stroke motors an the smell....slowly
it changed an now you seldom see or hear the 250R quads...or even bikes whinning sound....now I miss it, an always take notice when I hear a 2 stroke...still an always will be cool. You bet its fun to build your own machine!!!!! I may have to pick up a trx250R to fix up someday just to hear it when I want!!!
