Hi all. Been on the forums for a few weeks now, kind of went straight to the 250r section and missed this. I was always a 4 stroke guy started on an old dr225 trike, went to a Warrior, then a Raptor (no brand loyalty there huh), sold the raptor due to marriage and a few weeks ago got a great deal on a 250r, been my dream quad even though I was a Yamaha guy. Anyway blew the R up 20 minutes after I got it and found the forums for tech info.

I will get some pics when it is back together. I bought the quad with no info on hopups but here is what I have learned.

86 250r
CR 250 Titanium Rod By RPM Mfg.
Hinson Clutch Basket
Fresh bore to 67.5 after bad blowup
Stage 3 Porting by Browns Performance (Anyone heard of them???)
Just got a stock milled head
Unknown Reed Cage, may be a stocker w/ guts cleaned up.
Unknown pipe, I am guessing an older DG because the silencer is DG but who knows
Frame & Suspension seem to be stock

Mods to be done soon:
V Force cage
Possibly a carb
K&N filter
Shocks (fronts are blown out)
