Sorry, but why not keep it KTM?( I know, I know, I'm gonna hear it). I've ridden with friends with ktm bikes (525xc's) and those things are impressive to say the least. Just curious.

I prefer 2 stroke I'm currently modifying my laeger back to 2 stroke as I had a crf490 engine in it. I bought the lobo without an engine I have a spare 250r engine exhaust etc

I stopped racing 2006 due to abad back injury. I had a 250r back in 91. I do some flat track racing along with my son and just think the 250r is iconic. For me to own a Laeger a Lobo and a 250r is just the best of the best.

I couldn't agree more on preferring 2-stroke. I've always said if you put a truly skilled great rider on a fully built 250r he will out ride a fully built 450 4-stroker. Now I'm talking built power valve 350r (not stock 250r) compared to built 450. I just feel the type of power a 250 produces is king

You should consider a sphinx 363. That motor should produce 62-68 horses with experienced builder with right port, pipe, carb, intake and it screams lobo lobo lobo........

Lol I'll see what it's like when chassis is finished before deciding what motor is going in it

I think 2 stroke bikes smell and sound like a bike should
