Sounds pretty good. If you like it and feel it is worth the money then go for it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Man i thought you were getting a yz250 blaster, no i mean a ninja powered raptor for like 8500 that you would have to wait till the winter to get. Hmmm but then u said u were getting a 250rblaster. Maybe you should get a clue.

Why stop there? Why not an LT80 with an RC51 motor? Or a ds650 with a PW50 motor?

Seriously, YZBLASTER250, what the he11 is going on? First you are getting a blaster w/ a yz250 engine, then a raptor w/ a ninja engine, now a banshee.
Even if I could get a yz250 motor in a blaster it would suck since it doesn't have a counter-balancer. The thing would shake itself apart.
The ninja motor in a raptor would be pretty heavy.
If you are going to get a wierd-a$$ hybrid atv, get something sensible. Like a 250r chassis with an XR650R motor. But with all the money you would spend, you could get a tricked out quadzilla.

I was thinking about putting a chevy 454 engine in my sons power wheels, I will take pics and post them when the project is done. I anticipate it will be complete.... say tomorrow....Damn my Wait I don't have a 454 engine, my son doesn't have power wheels, and wait I don't have a son... Damn I guess I was filling you people full of crap.... YZBlaster250 maybe you should send us a pic of your tricked out 10 speed bicycle I bet your digital camera will work for that!!!!!
I have an idea save your paper route money and buy a used blaster with a stock engine then gradually work your way up!!!
