250x+250r+cr500= project ok well i have always heard about people puttin cr500s into quads and trikes, so i want to do it my self and what its like. what i have is a 1987 trx250X frame with a 1986 trx250R swingarm and axle, and a 1984 (air cooled version) cr500. and yes i relize that this frame is tiny and will probably viberate to death and i should have used a 400ex or 250r but it will be fine for alittle while. right now i have welded the bracket on the back of the frame for the 250r shock linkage to mount to and im going to bolt the engine down today or tommorow, its fits in the frame perfectly, but im not sure if i should use the original mount on the back off the 500 and run the swingarm bolt through it, ringht now i made brakets out of 1/16" and 1/4" steel to use instead, the only other problem i will be having is how to pipe it, i have 1984 PSI cr500 pipe but i will have to modifie it or the frame to sqeeze it in there, if any one has any sujestions about doing a project like this it would much apreciated. ill try to find a camera sometime so i can post pictures on here.
