Alright, well, its bore and ring time for my 230, and I was thinking about the topend in general. And I've come to the conclusion that I really wish it had a 4 valve head. But that was a while ago, and just a few minutes ago I went looking into LT250S cylinders on ebay figuring that I could do a crazy bore and satisfy my power desire that way. Well, I think I've gotten myself into a little more than I bargained for; a DR250 head and cylinder. Its 4 valve, 250, and MIGHT fit the 230 bottomend.

But, theres still some things I gotta know, such as stroke, and base bolt pattern. They LOOK similar, and I know Suzuki likes to keep some things fairly congruent throughout thier quad and bike lines, but idk.

Heres some fiche:

So, tell me what yall think.

 

Awh, F**K ME!

The cam chains run on opposite sides!

Well, I tried lol...

 

Just get a 260 kit for $350.

 

from fst, right?

what do i get in the "kit"? a sleve, piston, rings, and a topend gasket set?

do you think it would be cheaper to get the parts seperatley?

 

Kustom Kraft. You get a sleeve installed, piston, rings, and head gasket.

 

hey now, that "installed" bit sounds pretty nice to me!!!

im gonna go look into that, thanks alot man

 

yeah man that sounds real good to me!

how much of a power increase do you think i will notice? (i also have a dg rcm pipe and a 30mm mikuni vm roundslide carb).

 

I'm not sure. Probably a decent power increase.
