i got a motor the other day but dont know the year of it . its a Elsinore MR250 . the only numbers i can find on it is MR250E-1000903 . This is my question , would it be worth putting on this old honda 185s roller i got . i know any thing can be done if ya got a torch and welder and know how to use them .

The MR250 was only sold in the US as a 76 model. Engine codes are MR250E-1000001 on. 248cc 2-stroke piston port single, 5-speed. I owned 2 MT250 Elsinores, and they were both turds compared to my 97 CR250R and my 86 XR600R. The frames & everything on the Elsinores were very heavy. It's still a 2-stroke, though. Fun conversion.
