This sweet new 1985-86 ATC 250R frame has just hit the market. Built by Dave Moore, it's a product that has been in the making for quite some time. As advertised, it's got a "high profile removable and adjustable subframe, with increased room for spark plug when using large aftermarket cylinder, and increased room for large carb and air filter". It also fits stock radiators, the fuel tank, the rear plastic, and the seat. It will fit an in frame pipe, stock foot pegs, and the rear brake lever. It can also be set up to take Pro-Link rear suspension or the Inter-Link suspension that he designed for another chassis. A huge benefit over stock is that it weighs a whopping 13.5 lbs LESS than OEM.
It can also be ordered with adjustments such as "adding an additional rear motor mount bar so that you can run the '88/'89 TRX250R swingarm, different footpeg mount options, and more". It was also stated that you could order a welded rear linkage mount in so that if the buyer wanted, they could use the entire TRX450R linkage set up from swingarm to shock to frame. If that wasn't crazy enough, you can order one of these things for a whopping $700. That's an absolute steal, given the prices of the parts on the market today. It has some different methodology and ways of building the frame, some creative fabrication you'll have to check out. Hop on over
