I need some ideas for my extra 350x frame. I was wandering if any of you had custom x's (engine swaps, frame mods, etc). I was thinking about putting my xr 500 engine in it, but some of the threads here say not to do it. Any ideas?

I primarily use my running 350x for trail riding and a little sand riding ( I do not want to do to much to this trike because it is almost completely original and I have the title for it, plus its a blast to ride stock). I want to build the second one for mild drag racing and sand riding, something I can ride all day in the sand with no problems. I also plan on riding it on the trails when I have friends and family come to visit. I have given the sled engine idea some thought, but I do not have a sled engine, and I do not know much about them (I have not ever rode one). I would really like to run a high h.p. naturally aspirated 4 stroke.

yea i hear ya your over west. the sled engines are nice. but only if its not a 100+ deg. unless you got a l/c. then you need to rejet the carb/carbs. but yea i would stay with a good powerful 4 stroke where you are located. plus a 4 stroke is more reliable.
