Welcome. Maybe that other poor sap is playing dumb because he bought an MPS piece of shit. That would be imported too. WhatEVER you do, don't go down THAT road. Best of luck on your quest.

Re: Yz250 conversion?

[quote="cryzsurfer"]When I stuck a YZ250 smoker motor in my 04 CRF 250 chassis it was like that and wouldn't clear the spring and much worse than the 500 motor. I got a brand new Rad Valve and cut it adding a little more angle and it cleared it nicely. My 500 motor had an epic failure in t...

Me floating back and forth across the country between work and home doesn't help, but let me work it out from this end. My guy said he would have no problem having covers sent to Oz, so I'm thinking mail your covers back and have 2 sent out to replace them. Adam, do you have any spares left or did t...

I thought I read that one of the Aussies was going to fix the covers that were there, and now I can't find it or I misread. Which one of you was going to do this, I can send you pics and details. Unless you want 2 new covers, apparently that's all that left. Let Adam or me know.

Lmao. As I scroll down what do I see? An MPS sticker. Welcome to the club Sparky. I got ass raped by that son of a bitch too. Just like me, you found this site too late. I've posted plenty about him and his work. Best of luck getting that straightened out.

I run 2. Don't know about trail guys but riding moto on blue groove I can't keep it from slipping with one. Used to have to deflate the tire and rotate it back about every second ride. Friggin drove me nuts. Put 2 in, end of problems.

Just re-read your post. The Y is untouched? The guy lied to you. However, if you got the roller for a good price, carry on. Send it to Paul. He's 20 minutes east of Modesto. Quality work.

Two words. Paul Stoffers. Did you ever actually SEE the motor in that frame? Just a thought. Perhaps the previous owner started the swap and gave up when he realised what was ahead. Is the factory "Y" modified in anyway? Maybe the guy just TOLD you it was a 95 motor in there. If it had eve...

Outstanding news gentlemen. The clutch covers that were AT the shop have been fixed. Going to pick them up now. Hopefully they have been test fit ON the motor, the bike was left there specifically for that purpose. They won't leave 'til I know for sure they fit. Going to Ohio tomorrow to pickup the ...

From the result of what Roosty did, using some bluing, it looks like the outer edge needs to be cut right out to the edge of the concave, rather than leaving the lip. My buddy pointed out too, that the tool left a little bit of a burr on, I believe, the forward edge where there is a flat spot. Close...

Just an fyi on the covers guys. The US ones are still sitting at nightbikers house. I haven't been stateside yet, so I haven't picked them up. What I'm REALLY hoping is to get the ones modded that are here, and take the ones I need to mail out when I pick up the others. One stop shopping. The machin...

Well, heres my response, if not more of an observation. Interesting project, hope it works for you. Cool that you are doing something unique, to give you the bike that suits your needs.

Well, that is unfortunate. Looks like Rue might like the gear, and as far as I was concerned, if it RAN, and it SHIFTED fine, that thing was leaving in my truck. Actually only wanted the motor, didn't care how the bike looked. Although it does look decent.

If they raise the gas tax to compensate, all hell breaks loose. Every time that issue is discussed, people are up in arms. Fuel taxes need to go up. Period.
