blaster motor 200x frame?

[desrat]

Looking at the sad remains of my bike trike and quad stash........... correction all i got left is an old rm 250 and a 200x frame gave me the itch to revive the old 200. Wish in one hand and you know the rest. I didn't give it a thought till i saw a rather rough blaster bottom end at my buddy's shop. Given my new employment at Yamaha thought it would be fitting to build a blaster powered 200X.
Has anyone done this before, since there is no top end I have no idea about tank clearance or pipe routing.
Thanks.
By the way, 250r prices are skyrocketing right now!! wouldn't even bother with this if it didn't take $2000 to get a semi non goon beaten R or tecate.

Rele? Air-cooled R's are going for 700$ around here. And yes, there is even a YouTube vid of some guy riding his, some1 on here took a 86, try using the search bar it would help

Yeah, hard to believe prices are so high in your area. Here's a screaming sounding deal on an '86 250R in my area (wish I had the cash, I bet I could get it for 800 or 850) ;http://reno.craigslist.org/mcy/2605704925.html

IDK...seems like I'm always seeing deals like this when I'm not looking to buy...and when I am they're never around. :rolleyes:

I have a blaster with a 200s engine in it and its a blast for my son to ride. Granted it has an extra wheel, but it is just made from scrap parts going to waste.
