    project 250R in Japan

    Well folks here are some pics of my Frankenstein!

    '86 frame modified to use an '88-'89 swingarm - recently painted Mitsubishi Blue pearl
    '04 TRX450R shocks
    Krank It - CT sleeved '86 motor that has many bores left with Nationals P&P
    CT midrange pipe
    ASR pro star plus +2+1 A-Arms w/ pro race tie rods
    Lonestar Stem
    Allloy Boltz stainless bolt kit
    39mm Air Stryker

    Not in the pics:
    Lonestar swingarm
    Lonestar axcalibur axle
    AC pro pegs
    AC stadium front bumper
    AC full skid plate
    White '86 plastic that has been cleaned but is waiting for the RENEW to arrive from the states

    Plastic will most likely get upgraded to Maier black and I will be solving my TRX450R rear shock fitting problem by using an overhauled 250R unit.

    Eventhough the ROCK I live on is only 60 miles long and 13 miles wide at it's widest section we have lots of good riding spots. We also have (2) AMA tracks plus a yearly sand race. I'll post some more pics later when after my parts arrive.

    Tomorrow I am gonna go rip up the trails on my RMX250T bike since I finally cured all of it's bugs!

    I got the frame, 310 motor with a spare ported jug, nerf bars, and CT pipe from a guy who parted out a complete Quad locally so he could buy a new YFZ450. All of my other parts came from good ole Ebay. I got some awesome deals off of Ebay! My 2+2 axcailbur with OEM hubs only cost me $100 anx the stock length Lone Star swinger was less than $150. I will be getting all of the small OEM stuff like o-rings, c-clips and special bolts from Alba Action next week. Hopefully this monster will be ripping the roost before thanksgiving!
