Soupbox660 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Ok, dont yell at me. I have already posted on the Suzuki forums. But I trust my Banshee brothers knowledge over all of the other forums out there, so Im going to post here too. I have mad love and respect for all quads, especially the classics. Last weekend I came across a 85-86 Quadracer LTR250 frame with fresh powder on it in a buddy's shop. He said, he powdercoated it for a guy and he never came back to get it. Anyway, I found everything for the quad there in boxes. Even wheels and tires. Plastics in good shape. No tears in the seat. So I took it all. $100 bucks! Im pumped! The only thing it needs is a crank from what it looks like. I've thought about parting it out, and may still yet, but first I wanna see if its worth restoring cause these bikes are pretty damn cool. And I thought I could have some fun on it for awhile and then sell it. But, Im having a heck of a time finding a crank for the 85-86. Any suggestions? Or should I try something different like the 88-92 engine swap? Or should I just get bent. LOL Im very open here. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Not worth restoring imho. That's the LEAST desirable years of quadracers and parts are rare/expensive. So I'd part it out and use the cash into a savings account, or if you like spending, buy banshee goodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
