For better handling, get some 400ex a arms and shocks, pretty cheap off ebay, you will need to relocate the top shock mount,there are kits for that, that will give you a wider,better handling front, and way more travel for bumps and jumping. You can either get a wider axle, or put spacers on the back to widen that up. For about 270 bucks, you can get a big bore kit, and get that 250 up to a 300cc. Almost any pipe is a step up, the factory pipe is very small, then put an Outerwears cover on the air box instead of the lid, jet up several sizes, get a race cdi, the factory rev limit is too low, and you should have a very nice boost over stock. Of course, you will want racing tires, some nice 20" rear Razers or Holeshots will make it corner much better, just regear for the smaller tires. Even if you do it all at once, if you won't be out too much money if you buy used, or do some work yourself. Maybe work on the suspension and tires, and go from there.

 

Alright thanks alot for all the good tips.I wrote all the stuff down that you listed about.I already have a bore kit but i'm not to sure how big lol i already have spacers, and a DG pipe (not very good at all). So what 4 stroke pipe would be best for me? If you have any other ideas i would like to know[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Yea I know what you mean. But trust me nothing to do with being slow. It is a friend of mine, Terry Pope who is the builder. He was the builder of John Natalie Jr. when he was racing for Legacy ATV, 2 years ago. He is one of those builders who have hook ups and can do alot more things to a motor then the normal pro builders will do. When your best friend is NHRA drag bike pro rider Shawn Gann, you can get all kinds of things made up special. My motor has bigger valves in it, then you can buy on the market. Always helps when you know someone. Thats how this world seems to run.

My friend has a cr250,he raced a 250x and smoked it. I would shy away from racing cr250s.
