Title: Laeger 250R
Post by: croat1 on August 03, 2019, 02:27:32 PM
New to me Laeger 250R.  Narrow front standard link rear.  Plus 3 long shock Pro Trax.  Peps all the way around.  Selvy 363.  I'm changing a few thing to make it perfect (at least to me).  More pics and info to be posted soon.

Congrats Joe! That looks like a bad mofo.

Tons of nice parts. I thoroughly enjoy those ultimate billet beadlocks.

Blake, not much as I wanted.  The quad is currently put away for winter.  Spring can’t come soon enough and that’s when I’ll put the finishing touches on it.  I’ll make sure to post some pictures.

First time seeing the light of day in 2 years.  Sad I know.  Nothing went as planned.  Going to change that!  Making time for myself.

Do you happen to know the history behind this Laeger?

You’re welcome on the cover.  I’ll keep an eye out for others.

This Laeger was originally a project DnB Racing was collecting parts to build.  Some might remember his name was Barry.  He unfortunately passed away.  His son inherited the project.  It sat still unassembled for a few years as the son had no interest in quads.   As this point a friend of mine purchased the project and completed it.  My friend got bit by the R bug addiction real bad.  He completed this Laeger and a LSR.  He also built one of each year TRX250R with damn near every part on them being NOS.  This was all round 2016.  Fast forward to 2019…I get a phone call asking if I wanted to buy the Laeger.  We made a deal and soon after I made the 10 hour drive to Massachusetts to pick it up.

Yup this cold weather sucks.  At least it’s not getting dark at 4:30pm anymore.  Warm weather can’t come soon enough.

Weather still sucks in NE Ohio.  I had to take a visual on the complete quad….yes the simple graphics work.  Now to cut out a few holes in the graphics and stick on.
