yeah i wondered that my self, it seems more than quick enough tho, ill have to see how work goes this week and decide what im gona do with it,

picking up the other one on wednesday:0

 

if you paid didley for it and it runs ok and doesnt feel real underpowered then just ride ike ya stole it. Anything you are like wow i would try that if i didnt care about messing my quad up just ride that one.

 

that was my plan, i was gona just thrash it and hope to get some improvement as a rider, i need to see how work goes with work this week cos ive payed a deposit on the other one and ill get it wednesday.

if i have a good couple of days at work i may be able to talk the misses into letting me keep both.

the one i get on wednesday is costing less than i payed for the hibrid[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Sounds good, I think you'll have fun with the 250R It does'nt have the ***** of the 500 but it's lighter and will still rip if you uncork it.
Have Fun

 

The grab bar looks like a 250. The 500 has the big elaborate grab bar and the 250 has just a basic hoop I believe. The plastic does look like it fits funny in the front. Here is a link that might be helpful quad page , is he from your neck of the woods?

By the way I lost the other thread about painting your frame but the pics of it looks awesome[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].

 

hehe, your Geography is terrable Tom,

yeah i think the 250 grab has been put on to help the 250 plastics fit, Thanks for the compliment on the frame, the front end is built up now, just waiting for linkage bearings for the rear end to get the swinger on, the engine cases are away at the mo being stripped gona be a combination of the same blue as the frame and some polishing, i had a stroke of luck with the RX fixes cos the cases have factory fitted bearing inserts so once the gear parts turn up from suzuki it shouldnt tke long to get it all back together,

 

I have both 250 and 500 in my garage now, I think the same, def Zilla fram.

Wow, you're making good progress and picking up more toys in the process. Hope it continues to go well, it's nice to see people finishing their projects. Even if it's not me!

 

Hey UK,to solve your problem,check the piece of frame that is infront of the engine,that does'nt look normal to me.It look's like someone welded it in to fit the small engine. I've never seen the front piece of the frame where the engine mount's rap under like that on a 250 frame,so that's what make's me think they were welded in to fit the 250 engine,plus the pipe is really close to the plastic,almost touching.I think also you got a Zilla framecuz the plastic look's too small for it.

 

so that means that zilla plastics will fit my lt250,becouse i've seen a qouple 250's with 500 plastics[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
