    Honda 450rx.

    Well here are the latest pic's. I have had it running, but have not rode it yet. I need a radiator & to weld everything solid, tighten all bolts. I pretty muck have it all tacked todether. I have a like new axle & carrier to put In It yet also. I'll be adding alot of frame reinforcement gussot all over the place lol. I'm sending the seat to the Mosh's soon for a new super cool new cover & foam. I also plan on a white plastic tank as soon as I can.

    thats nice, I am thinking of putting a yz450f motor into the 86 200x frame I'm gonna have made, 85/86 250r front end rear suspension also, 86-89 250r rear end stuff too, and 450r pegs, and brake pedal stuff. My thing to think about is, how, where I am gonna put the radiators? Maybe a short track 250r tank and 250r plastics will go on it??

    Thanks guys. I still have alot of work ahead of me.

    Deathman53, I will be running a 84-85 tecate radiator mounted on the tripples, thanks to some other member's quick thinking (Derrick, Garageboy).

    If I had the radiator I could ride this damn thing lol.

    I did'nt drop the engine cradle at all. I just cut the lower motor mounts off & It fell right In there. I had to cut the upper shock mount completly off & rebuild It though. The gas tank fits just as It origionally did, on the stock mounts.

    thats awesome. I remember you saying you cut the bottom motor mounts but i didnt realize it dropped in that easily and cleared the backbone. You gotta be anxious to take it out. I wonder how it will run against other bikes, 250rs, trx450r QUADS This is going to tf07 isnt it?

    Dizasterzrfun69, It Is a 05, But I bought some 06 parts today that will make quite a change for the better. I bought the crank & rod, piston, jug, cam, valves, from a 06 engine. If I get the time I just might slap It on there. The 06 engine is supposed to really run alot better. I know the bore & stroke Is different. Any way you look at It, there will be a huge problem keeping the front end on the ground lol. I hope to have a longer swinger here shortly also. If you could actually use the motor I'm sure It would out run a 450r quad. Big weight advantage.
