haha, actually it makes it almost a proper 1st gear.  Maicos made 2nd gear 1st gear b/c no one used first gear on the bikes in MX, so was too fast.  Although it messes up 5th gear with the close ratio and makes 5th too slow this way even on the fire roads, but 1st gear is closer to where it should be for trails.

Holy Cow that's a big sprocket!!!!!
If a pair of 2" brass balls isn't working, I doubt that the 3" model will make much difference.

thankss i kinda miss the honda but love the ktm

I know there not everyones favourite Honda with the first generation frame but the 97/98 250 had an awesome engine, i used to love the power of my ol 98, it only had an FMF system but damn it had some grunt.........the 99 wasnt so great when it came to power but i still loved  riding it, I think the ergo's suited my size n style...
F**K THE WHALES......................SAVE THE 2 STROKE!!!!

The hardest part about riding a 4 stroke is telling your parents your Gay!!

Here is my baby. It is a RM 250 2009, bought brand new this spring and I can tell you that it was a great bargain compared to buying a thumper. Completely stock except some small personal changes (Handlebars, smaller rear sprocket, etc.), and I'm just loving this bike. It is by far the best bike I've ever owned, easy to maintain and I'm having a blast everytime I'm riding that thing! I'm currently racing in the B-class here in Finland, and this thing aint giving any advantage to 450's, thats for sure. I'm hoping to make it to the A class this or next year, and I'm for sure going to run the 2-banger there also, but we might have to do some modifications for the engine to keep it running there with "big-boys" riding the GP tuned thumpers up front... But as far as that goes I'm not worried at all, I think that 250 2-stroke has tons of potential to STILL tighten it up, 4-strokes have nothing on us!  ;)

Hey Opfer you should be able to install the primary gears out of an 83 250 Maico in your new 500.That would allow you to go back to your original sprockets and chainguide.If you then needed to gear up you could then add a tooth or two to the countershaft sprocket. ;D

My 2000 Honda CR 250 w/ the 2002+ plastics conversion.



...and my 2004 Suzuki GSXR 750 that my dad and I 'customized' since we are huge Rizla Suzuki fans. I love MotoGP right along with MX! I used to to track days when I first got it in 2004+ but it's an expensive hobby.  :(
