Now, l have a 1966 Montesa 250 4 speed motocross engine, what will l do with it, build a Motocrosser, road racer, or vintage road bike, any ideas. ???
-
Leave it in the shed, that way you'll save yourself a lot of time and money building a bike then selling it.
-
WELL, that is an ideal
-
what ever you want I'd assume it is pretty rare? maybe someone needs one for a 66 montesa.
-
Paint it pink, nail a dead rat to it and use it in the office as a natty paper-weight (keep people guessing..... ;))
-
Frosty, they are very rare, Lyall O`brien used these engines for roadracing, Gary and my brother raced them in their La cross, and cappra gp motocross bikes. they are and excellent engine.

I'm a newby with such mods, do you need to paint the rat before you nail it?
-
Ideally, the rat should be painted with a high-temp clear
-
If you're into bling, then paint the rat (or even anodize it). If you're 'true' old school then leave it 'el natural'....
-
Is that all you fellows can come up with.

Terry morris/Bruce kinnersley montesa Diablo keeps everyone on their toes classic roadracing,bloody quick rider on a quick 2eeey,trick removable combustion chamber :o,(sorry Bruce ;D),either that or vintage dirt track,(4 speeds not such a liability gearing wise),hth, :P
-
petite metisse ! mx / vintage dirttrack ;)
-
If you can use it in pre 65 250 class buy a baby Metisse frame
-
I have desided to sell the engine plus my pre 65 forks with it, l don`t have time to build this bike.
-
