There are so many questions that need to be answered......Is it a complete running motor ? Or pieces ? And what is and isn't included ? What Transmission is used ? I can't see them using the 250R Trans as Parts are Discontinued....but maybe a 450R trans with parts readily available....and it says BOLT into a 450R ? Well what if you want it for a (insert aftermarket chassis here) 250R ? Will it still work ?

I'm sure they'll get enough comments and suggestions to make this the BIG BROTHER the 250R was always missing!

There is a guy in Australia that is putting a cr500 topend on a 450 bottom end. He said it was close to matching up. (Of course a lot of machine work) So if the cases were designed for that top end, I bet that is what they are using.

So is this a 250r based engine? Or did they machine new cases with a counter balancer? Becuase other wise, I dont see the point. Its basically 250r with a saber cylinder.

No I believe it's a cr500 based motor

See if it is cr500 based. That means machined cases, machined counter balance ect. And all this for 4500? Hard to believe.

And it probably won't be aluminum cases either look at how cheap Esr cases are to buy
