My son started racing MX this year in the youth class on a Raptor 125cc. He is already in need of a bigger bike. I would like to build a hybrid 250 for my sons next step in ATV racing. I was looking at installing a yz250f motor in a yzf450. Has anyone done this? if so how did you solve the starting problem. It looks like the kick starter will hit the plastic Nerf bar. Are there any recommendations or alternatives I should consider?

Anything can be done with a little basic fab work.  May want to look into what they did in the golden era of hybrids when they stuffed the 426/450 motors in the 250r and 400ex chassis.  This was in the early 2000's pre yfz and trx 450 days.

Fenders typically got cut to clear the kicker, sometimes an extension would be made to push it out, or a smaller kicker from another motor would be used.

      NSFW / Looking for fun ideas for our 2nd Quad Runners event at our nudist campground
      By mehim
      Hi everyone and thanks for reading. 
      My husband and me are getting ready to host the 2nd Quad Runners event at our nudist campground. The first one (last year) went pretty well with about 20 quads attending and have to say, it was a smaller group, but they made up for their size with the large interest in partying and there was plenty of nudity as the Saturday night went on. 
      We have decided to host another one this summer, but we are looking for some fun (but safe) riding events. Our grounds are almost all flat and remember we are a nudist campground so many of us are bare as* naked so "slow ride" events would be the best. 
      Give us your thoughts and ideas and feel free to ask us anything you would like, and we will answer right here in the thread. 
      Thanks for your help and ride safe. 
      BTW, let us know what "anything goes" means for this thread section.

      Looking for Quadrunner Flywheel Starter Clutch Gear race diameter
      By logray
      Hi all, 

      I am wondering if any of you have a Clutch Starter gear from a 1988 era quadrunner 250 sitting around that you could get me a precise measurement of the outer diameter of the race the sprag engages onto, for me? I need to machine a damaged race down and install a hardened sleeve and need that measurement (it's on a different gear than the OEM one, so I can't buy and use a OEM gear).

      First time quad owner looking for advice!
      By Mikey509
      Hi guys, I was given a 2000 Honda Recon fourtrax 250 (I think that's the full name lol). The previous owner had it sitting for a while before I got it. It sat for another few years in my ownership. I got it up and going on its first test drive today!! I was wondering where everyone buys their parts from?  Coming from the car community, we have sites like RockAuto and many more. Anything like that for quads? Also would like to be pointed in a direction, if possible, for plastics. I am missing a few and would like to have it complete. I appreciate any input!

      need help on a yamaha raptor 80 stalling
      By Gtc4d
      I recently purchased a raptor 80 for my grandson for  christmas. I am trying to make sure it is running properly. i have rebuilt the carb and adjusted the carb idle then the mixture to middle of where it runs rough and it runs great for about a min or 2. then it stalls out. I can usually choke it and it will start so i feel it is lacking fuel. the fuel shutoff valve has been changed and i checked it for good fuel flow.  any ideas of what to check next. I am planning to vfy fuel float height tomorrow. I visually checked it by turning carb upside down when i had it apart and it looked level. any ideas are appreciated. 
       
      Thanks.
      Todd
