need advise

Post by 2strokeforever »

so im gonna build a seprate climber bike and dont know wether to go with another 500, or a street bike engined mx bike
i might be able to get a 05+ gsxr750 engine for really cheap 128hp at the wheel
how much better will a gsxr750 climb than a 500
both will be on pump gas (no nitromethane for me) :cry:
im hoping pstoffers will chime in here
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

well, the weight difference would make the GSXR/MX bike harder to handle.

build a Liger 500 and dominate the competition :0
2000 CR250, pipe, filter, Vforce

1980 XL80s
1969 Broncco TX-6

That Turbo 500 trike is intriging. Wonder how that mill would do in a climber.

I have never ridden a stretched hillclimbing badboy but would love to try and twist the throttle on one :)

I think more people would lean more towards the GSXR motor it makes more power and when your on the gas its going to handle decent, you will find alot more inline 4's on the pro circuit then a 500....
