Default To the LT Guru's Bypass plastics

Okay here is the deal.. I am looking into a LT250r but i just hate the plastics on them.. Is there anyway to bypass new plastics on the frame.. I saw some posting about a guy who had 400ex plastics on his.. If I can do this then right away I would buy a LT great machines but no looks.. Even the race cuts from aftermarket company's arent to cute.. LOL.. Please someone i want to have a nice atv before summer starts so im ready to ride..

Thanks agian guys..

i like the LT's look with shaved front plastics, and with a maier front hood. I dont like how the stock one goes in...the maier one is straight and sticks out a lot. I really like how mine looks.

hey, if you allready have nice lt plastic and still think it looks bad, well then buy some real cheap 400ex plastic just to try, and start welding. The only thing about them is, you have to make the rear fender and seat flip up backwards so you can kick start it "darn backwards kick starters". im acually going to start making the directions to do this and send them to people on here and other fourms. p.s. they look amazing with a nice chrome fatty!and the seat height is perfect for a taller guy!!im 5'11 and it fits me PERFECT! oh and im going to be getting some pictures of it soon!!brace yourselves lol

I think 250r shocks are 16 1/2" long and 87 and up LT's are 15" long, so unless you've got long travel a-arms it's a no go. The geometry is also different so they would also need to be revalved.

Whenever you want to start your quad. Hondas have a forward kick and Suzis have a rearward kick.

Hey, the rear fenders flip backwards to start it, like on race quads with dirt bike engines "some of them". and the 250r shocks would only fit with 250r/ex a arms.ill send you a picture of what i mean by flipping backwwards. you can bypass this by race cutting the rear fenders, which i might do later on in the future.
