    Though I will be having it powdercoated a slightly brighter shade of green in the near future.

    It is a shame you have to change that paint on the frame.That stuff is awesome!!!

    As far as the nerf bars...Did you ever think of taking a saw to them and just leaving the pegs bolted up? That would be good... no?
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...

    I thought about that, but nerfs arnt cheap and I would rather be able to use them, then just junk them. Plus now all the places we ride dont have to many stumped up trails any more so snaggin on them wont be a problem, im more worried about the extended axle hitting stuff then the nerf bars now.

    as for the paint, somehting like that is no problem for me of course, I miss the days when my 250R was just black with a red frame and some smaller red parts.




    sorry the pics are chopped but I dont have any other pics unless someone else took some








    those where the days there.

    well had like half a second free time today so I decided to finaly make some parts fit,

    first shave down the poly bushings in the 450R swinger so it would fit into the engine/frame area

    trim the rear fenders to fit above the heel guards

    put in my short springs in the fork finally

    and just piddled around on it adding and taking off parts as needed

    nothing it tightend down yet just stuck on for the time being.









    front tire size







    damn this beast is wide!!!!







    and tall!!! this thing is going to be a handfull!









    here is the difference over stock, my subframe is extended 2 inches longer to better suit my riding style so the seat pan and seat will have to be modded as well.. this seat right here is just my bobo seat the mosh's have my secrete seat








    thats it for now!

    I done a 07 450R swingarm swap on an 85 model R and run into problems trying to re-install the 250R linkage... You might want to check your own set-up but the R linkage will hit the swingarm well before the suspension ever bottoms out. With it mocked up on my build I only had around 3 inches of rear suspension travel and then it would hit... Ended up using the 450R linkage with an adjustable strut and a 300EX shock... The 450R shock will work but it is one rough ride for a 200 pound person!!
