The best advice I have is: DON'T DO IT!!!
You'll never control the vibration issues.... Build the 250R motor to a 370 and it will RUN....

PM dabeechMan... he's been there done that with the big bore motors on the 250...

I've been there done that on the TRX500R... I ruined the bike completely, then sold it. I think I still have a few fillings loose!

Just my $.02

I've been looking for one too but cant find one. I know someone builds one back east for hill climb bikes but I dont know who (610 long rod kit). I'm going to run NOS this seasion and it should put out 100+ hp. As far as mounts go use 1\4 inc thich tabs. I can email you pics of how I did mine. it does vibe and always will. I have got mine perfect except for that the head lights fall apart every 2 trips. I wiil be getting beefer one anyway. I had to gusset the sub frame and a coulple other spots. Also I moved the motor up from the stock postion to aline the shifter and kickstarter and to help keep the front end down. I can hook you up with a billet intake that will line up the carb better. What year motor are you using? check out my bike and feel free to ask me ?????????????????????'s. I know a lot about this project. Its fast andf fun as Hell.

cool pictures, but wheelies only look cool/impressive AFTER first gear...lmao jk.

The 500's vibrate pretty bad because the lack of a counterbalancer. They vibrate extremely bad so it would be in your best intrest to loc-tite every nut and bolt, many gussets and frequent tear downs to ensure nothing is cracked or broken. Its a big hassle when you can make the same power out of a smaller, more reliable (chassis wise) big bore 250r motor.

To answer your question there is a big bore/stroke motors that you can built. Not really a "kit" since all it does is stroke a crank. Just find a builder and he'll do it for you. BUT by doing this you arent helping the vibration issue any.

Hey Cheese Wad, I dont think you were in 1st gear in your pics of doing a wheelie., besides I had a few beers down the hatch in those pictures. After breaking your back it might melow you out a bit. Well hardly I just say that till I'm on my bike and things change. lol. Give me a 4-stroke and I'll do a wheelie in 1st.

you dont need all your friends to head to pismo. It should be a good time with a lot of fast bikes. Doesnt matter if you get beat or not, you can always race 4-strokes! haha
