@poipoipoipoipois OH wow, you're the first to know that! Thats worthy of a shoutout this weekend!

[rp2k1o]

is the music a joke ???

[vvtheduckvv]

@rp2k1o mute it if you don't like it.

[fabianromano]

looking good man, keep up the hard work, we want to see that beast riping it off.

I found some spanish guys who sell a kit to convert cr450s into moto GP bikes: 450gp.com

[vvtheduckvv]

@fabianromano Yep, those have been around a couple years. There are a few american firms doing them, too. I actually started mine first, but my pockets aren't as deep as those guys so I've been hunting ebay deals and trading parts with friends so mine isn't done yet. But I have borrowed a lot of their ideas to better my project! :)

[fabianromano]

Did you ever finish this ???

[vvtheduckvv]

@fabianromano Did you watch the rest of the videos so far? Most recent update is over on DuckmanCycles. It doesn't need much more.

[yamaha04rider]

when you put the engine in the frame what did you have to do?

[vvtheduckvv]

@yamaha04rider In that frame... not much. I just cut off the front engine mounting tabs and the bottom of the "X" brace then the engine dropped right in. We later created new tabs for that position in a later video.

[hokiriderz]

@vvtheduckvv i like the 98 99 cr250 frame a cr500 almost fits strait in i got a 98 cr250 with a cr500 in it mean azz

[jojomoor]

@vvtheduckvv haha lol? no but really, someting like Enter sandman by metallica..  Besides that, Ive saw all your videos and its comming on great! Cant wate to see the final result!

[vvtheduckvv]

@jojomoor I can't use that specific music due to copyright restrictions. :) I actually get compliments on the music that is here, though, lol! I too am excited about this project and the poother CRF450/CR500 I am building, too!

[MagicCadillac]

That's a nice job to rebuild a bike up from zero, that's awesome ...

[vvtheduckvv]

@MagicCadillac Thanks, this was an awesome project! All ebay parts that I hunted for a while that sometimes I found mislisted that I got for killer deals!

[MagicCadillac]

That's great, ebay is sometimes better then people think, I never suspected that

[danpifs]

Cool project!! I've wanted to do the same with a KTM 250SX for a long time!!

Good luck!

[vvtheduckvv]

@danpifs Put a KTM 550 engine into it, or a CR500? Hehehe! I saw someone go the KTM route on a forum about a year ago, can't remember here though.

[lazy5411]

Do you have a good right crank case to fit a cr250 around this model and if so what is the bottom price on it?

[vvtheduckvv]

@lazy5411 Nope, sorry. The only engine stuff I have for a Honda is CR500.

[77toyota]

nice... are you ganna finish it or do the 450

[vvtheduckvv]

@77toyota I'm gonna do them both!
