Quickie here. How much better is the '02-'04 frame compared to the '00-'01? I've read the '00-'01 engines hit harder; how much is it a compromise between the punchier '00 engine and 2nd gen. frame vs. the '02 and up engine and 3rd gen. frame?
Just for curiousity's sake, would the '00 or '01 CR250 engine directly bolt into (and work right) in a '02 to '04 frame? Would that be feasible, or is the '02 and up engine fine with a good port job and maybe a decent pipe? Not a project I'm likely to do, but it's good to know that in case a miracle deal falls through the cracks on **** or something.
-Cheers
