XS400 powered blaster

[smilesyota]

So i bought a 02 blaster with a blown motor for 300 bucks. Then i traded a 74 cb350 for a 82 xs400 which i got running good and removed the engine and cut the blaster in half and made it fit. Now all the little things have to be done to finish it off and make it look a little better.

XS for the win. How long did it take to get it to this point? I also really like your welder cart.

What did you do with the "blown" engine?

Lottah work for 38hp.

looks liike it runs pretty good, and that little ramp leading to "joes auto" makes a good place to duck into if being chased !!!!!!

Lottah work for 38hp.

i was kinda thinking the same thing... hell my honda cm400 is atlest 43 hp

I think you are missing the point. Some things come together by chance. Plus it's not "work" when you are doing it for fun.

Thanks. Ive got new brake setup from norm420 in the mail. the old motor was blown when i bought it for 300$ still have the motor.

So I've been riding for a couple of months and it has held togeather good but the street carbs dont like the harsh landings and steep inclines. Does anyone know what diameter the carbs are on a raptor 660?

could you have found a heavier lowtech motor for the swap?

whats next an iron sportster engine

Not to be too negative but a RD250 twin probably has a higher power to weight ratio

 

[smilesyota]

It was free, and fits good. Oh and it will leave any blaster in the dust!

are you trying to get the 4-stroke swap guys into a big bar fight here?

You race the 2-stroke guys using mileage. For example, my Blaster has 23,000 miles on the stock motor.
