What motor would fit in a 83/84 R ?

[staceyl200]

Hi Does anyone know what motor would fit in a 83/84 250R ? I know of a 350x motor I could lay my hands on and theres a 83/84 R on ebay thats quite cheap at the moment but some numbnut has put a honda cg125 4 stroke motor in it , so what else would fit relatively easily ?

Cheers In advance

well there will be some fabricating. the 83-4 250r's chain comes out on the right side(sittin on trike). the 350X chain is on the left. the 250r engine is now where near as tall as the 350x engine so head clearance will be an issue.

Damn! I forgot the drive is on the right . So I,m quite restricted to motors , I,m just trying to get an idea what will fit or whether its worth waiting for a complete R to turn up ,but they are like rocking horse s@@t over here lol !! I just need another project trike .

Cheers

That R on ebay looks completely shagg@d, i wouldnt go for it, i looked and considered it but i bet he just hacked the frame up. Better off waiting for something better to come up. But......... you will be competing with me too lol!. (dont worry you get first pick)

LOL Hi Will !!! I,m sure that R was the same as the one on ebay a few months ago which was in Swansea , plus the rear fenders are buggered too and the front , yeah I probably wont bother ,, Have you seen the price of those tri-z,s on ebay !!!!!!! WTF!!!
