[QUOTE="keithb7, post: 940327, member: 58846"] I bought my CR already bored out to 265cc. I did not know this until I went to rebuild the top end and found a weird sized piston in there. I am not sure how the bike ran as a stock 250 so it's hard to really be accurate in comparing. I do know from riding a friends CR250 stock, 2001,that there was quite a difference in power. The stock bike didn't seem to be as wild, even with an 11oz flywheel on mine weight it is amazing. There is plenty of bottom end, I ride only tight woods, single track and love it. I would say definately more bottom end than stock. My bike also had the FMF Fatty pipe as compared to the CR250 that I rode which was stock. When I think about 15cc difference over stock, it really doesn't seem like much in theory, but wow, I know I can feel it. The previous ower was too unaware of the 265cc kit in the bike. He went on to say whenever he went riding with his buddy who had a 2003 CR250, they usually switched bikes as his buddy loved how wild the 265cc bike was. Neither of them knew why there was such a difference. ;) To answer your question, all around better gains in my opinion. I don't ride on a track ever. For woods riding I love it. Top end? Can't really say if it's better or worse as I spend 80% of my time at mid to low power band. Oh, did I forget to mention wheelies? Man, its so light on the front end I can't believe how easy it is to wheelie. :laugh: To sum all this up....I love my 1994 CR265. I will be riding this bike for a long time yet. However reading about CR500's on here lately has peaked my interest. :nod: [/QUOTE]
