Tomorrow if all goes according to plan I'm going to pick it up. I have no clue yet the route I'm gonna take with it. My mind says to complete build but my wallet says just pull what I need off my '87 and put it on this. I was pretty upset when I realized how bad my '87 frame was til I was informed about this.

What your 87 was that messed up bud, but cool on the new frame now.

Is that a full roll or is the frame another brand I can't really tell from the pic

Honestly don't know what happened. Didn't even notice till a week after last ride. Ordered gusset kit and after examining frame noticed that it was time to be done with it.

Cool frame TRX250R1. Do you know the history of it? I have one and I love it. I'm a desert rider tho. Id love to see a pic of the rear shock mount if u could. Mines been modified and I'd like to put it back the way it came.

That's all good in theory, but when you spend double like that you run out of money twice as fast. Lol

That's cool June. I've got the Dirt Wheels that showed when that first roll came out somewhere. I got it off ebay a few years ago. When I find it I'll scan it and send it to you.

Thanks for the pics TRX250R1 Mine still looks like that. I'm very happy. I thought it had been molested. You've eased my mind. Mine's white too. It's buried in my Dad's shop. Waiting to be rescued. Check out Treasure Chest on ATV Riders.

Stock headstay is not fittin like is should. I guess these chassis had a specific ROLL head stay
