Default TB 250 reed conversion.....

I don't like the price of the kit, but I figured I saved enough $ over a Scram or V that I could live with the price. Would the conversion be reliable enough for trails and some slow, technical stuff? Would that be too much for the aircooled 250, or would I be better off with something milder? Going full boogie to keep the engine cooled won't happen a lot, but I don't think a Stage 1 kit would have the type of power I would like to have on tap, although I'm sure its impressive, especially since the stock power is not. Well, thanks for any thoughts!!

I have had no problems with my reedcage kit it is been very reliable have had no over heating. Have you got a hold of AZ bad boyzz on the kit? It has great lowend with the kit.

Well that's pretty sweet. I'm sure racing is alot harder on an engine than trail riding is. I think first thing to do will be a RCR stage 1 kit, then the reed cage conversion sometime this summer. So how did you get the weight down so much? I imagine no reverse or electric start would make the boss cranky, but what else have you removed? Thanks again!!

Pretty much everything not needed for it to run. I cutoff all the bracing for fenders no footbrake no lights. I do push it hard. The person who finshed in secound for season was also a Polaris. I belive you can Talk to Dennis at Az Bad Boyz for a good porting job an clutch setup. I don't have all his motor mods yet there ia a stroker mod yet to that will move it to over 50hp.

i would say get the stage 1 kit with porting and the flywheel done and u will be getting huge power. mine has a lot done but not flywheel yet and i ride all tight trails and when i come out of a corner i can punch the gas and wheelie with the tires spinning.

This is going to be my 2nd full riding season with my HPD reed conversion and I
am very impressed with it so far. I don't really ride slow but I don't ride full bore
all the time either! All my riding is on a homemade track that has tight twisting
woods section to a big open field area with small jumps. You will be happy with
a reed conversion kit!

Fasternu, I would suggest getting the reed conversion from AZ Bad Boyz instead of the HPD. It will cost alot less and I'm sure it's going to give you the same quality, if not better. Give Dennis a call and he will hook you up. Man I want that stroker.....
