Hey there I read the thread about a few mods and things that could be done to an 82 250R. just needed some clarification and possible ideas on the following.
You wouldn't happen to have a plus 3 extended swing arm for an 82 250R would you? or know where I can get one. with that three inch extension do you have to get a different rear shock, or can you make the stock one work?
I just bought an 82 and want to upgrade it a little. I think I am gonna use those tusk extended wheel hubs I think they used to be the G-force extended hubs. Anyway, I had them on a wheeler a while back, that should give me the width I want. I think that thread showed 300ex or 400ex hub spines would fit the 82 axle? Probably through some fast trekker 18-11x8s on the rear. Not sure if I want to swap the front with the 200x or not yet.
I will probably take the top end and have it port and polished, bored if needed, and throw a 32mm pwk carb on it and some boyseen pro reeds . It already has the DG exhaust. I think I read somewhere that you can throw a 36 tooth rear sprocket and really get this thing to fly, probably needs some modification to make that work though. Other than that I need to replace the handle bars, seat cover, and some other cosmetics. If I get real froggy I will tear it a part and powder coat it. I'm not looking to break the bank, already did that back in 2011 with a TPC trike. Anyway, any advice or help with this would be greatly appreciated.
