2005 frame to fit 2002

Post by Chamberz33 »

gday guys
just wondering im buying a 2002 cr 250 and i plan on putting a 1994 cr500 motor in it.
im wondering since ill be getting pstoffers to do my conversion, would i be able to use a 2005 frame. i say this because i am looking to buy a frame in USA and get it sent to paul to do all the welding and such. I live in Australia so i dont really want to send my frame over then get it sent back.

Are their any benefits in using a 2005 frame?? will all my hardware from the 2002 fit the 2005 frame??

cheers guys

The cr250 2002-07 is my favorite chassis, I've got 6, 2 as 250s, 4 as 500s. Heck, one of them I bought and haven't seen it yet :lol:
Paul knows what's up with that chassis and has competed with one as a 500 for years.
There's no other AF that has been built as long, and everything but the main chassis is also shared with the 125 so parts are cheap!
I prefer their handling over the gen 1,2 or 4 bikes I've rode.

Ive got a 2002 cr 250 I'm looking to convert.
Could you give some blokes numbers that do it in Australia. Wouldn't mind pstoffers but it'll be cheaper to get someone in aus to do it.
