CR250 engine swap

[joshleb]

Ive got a chance of gettin a 1983 CR250, and was wandering how easy it would be to do an engine swap and put it in.

Would have been easier if it was yz, but do you think the fact that its a honda engine it would make it much harder.

Any one tried any 250 engine swaps or get any info or help on how to do it.

Thanks

it's been done with yz 250's, but you have to strengthen the frame so it doesn't get torn apart. anything is possible with the proper tools, motivation, and know-how.

Went to have a look, and its a no no.

The kick start and gears and stuff are on the "wrong" side.

Im on the look out for yz's which are proper way round.
