Just wondering what the differences would be between the Motors,

ive been offered one with the RM motor in, just wondering if its worth bothering with, probably stuff a 500 in there at some point but it would be nice to have 250 play thing for a while,

any advise??

 

ones a 2 stroke and ones a 4??????

 

Both 2....Ask JustinJones, that's what he is running.

 

thanks ill do that

 

What year is the quad. If it is a RM motor in an 85/86, then the motor is a big improvement over stock, but if the quad is a 87-92, then the motor isn't much different.

SNOWRIDER,
They are both 2 stroke motors

 

If its a newer engine out of a late model RM, then im sure its an improvement, but anything of the same vintage wont be too huge of a difference.

 

i know nothing of dirtbikes or there engines and im not to bothered about any advantage of it having the RM engine, ive kind of set my heart on an LT250 i just want to be sure it would be worth having with a non standard engine or if i would be better holding out and hoping to find an original

if your opinions are that at worst it wont be a significant improvement then im sure i can live with that, it seems like a reasonable bike for the money so i think ill give the guy a ring in the morning and take a look,

thanks for the help[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Would the RM motor vibrate more????

Report back with detailed info about this RMLT hybrid!

 

Dirtbike engines are not counterbalanced so they need motor mounts that can handle and isolate the vibrations. Broken motor mounts and loose bolts are very common with dirtbike engines in quad frames.
