Message: [QUOTE="WoodsChick, post: 930190, member: 30194"] Please foprgive me for straying from the original subject here, but for those of you dreaming about a 250F motor in a KX100 frame, you might want to check out Service Honda's latest offering, the CRF250 Junior. (I personally would have called it the CRF250Xpert, but they neglected to consult with me for some reason...) They are putting a Honda CRF250X motor in a Honda CR85R Expert frame. The Expert has 2" bigger wheels, longer swingarm and beefier suspension (on rear only, I think) than the regular CR85, so I would assume it would feel quite similar to the KX100. The electric start feature stays intact, although the last time I spoke with them they were still working on a more usable fuel tank set-up. If you should decide to go this route, be prepared to shell out some serious money...$8999. Still cheaper than a BBR creation, and you get all quality Honda components, but still a rather hefty chunk of change. Just for the record, I'm 5'1", and I ride a lowered CR125, a lowered WR250F (both professionally lowered via suspension and revalved for me, no shaved seats or forks moved in triple clamps) and a highly modified GasGas Pampera 280. Buckwi1d, if you go for the KX100, and then you decide you don't like it, I'm sure you'd be able to sell it fairly easily, as they retain their re-sale value pretty well. WoodsChick [/QUOTE]
