I have a 02 CRf 450 framed 500 and really enjoyed building it and the final product.

Looking at building another AFC and have a line on 2 bikes
05 CRf 250 ($300 cheaper and has a blown engine to part)
07 CRf 450 (no motor to part out)

So, the 250 would be cheaper to build. Would the newer suspension on the 450 be a better choice?

Thanks for all input.

Suspension should be same components between both of those, and since the 500 motor swap requires different setup than a 250 or 450, I'd say go with whatever chassis fits you better.
