Title: XR200 frame
Post by: brent j on July 18, 2012, 09:13:01 pm

Not quite vintage but worth a try.

I'm after a frame for an XR200 from about 1990 onwards or a CRF 230 frame.

I only need the engine cradle from the steering head down and around to the top rear engine mount.

Cheers

Brent

Have a 1991 XR 250 frame you can have if any use

Rowdy's frame isn't suitable so I'm still looking.

I need the engine mounts in place as well.

I'm looking at getting my KTonda (XR200 powered KTM) registered.

The engineer doing the approvals has said he wants the lower frame rails put back and would prefer to see the lower subframe to match the motor with factory engine mounts etc. I could make new mounts etc but they then have to be engineered and approved at an expensive hourly rate.

I want to fit the engine cradle and down tube from an XR200 frame or even a CRF230 as the mounts are the same as far as I can see and the bike will be fitted with a 230 motor in the future

I can see your dilema. Must be one lying somewhere going to waste.

The really annoying thing now is that I threw out the frame from the XR200 I wrecked to build the KTonda ::)
