Hey,

Not going to do this, but definately had a good think about it LOL.

If you purchased a GT250R and put a GT650R motor into it, would cops/WOF stations be able to tell the difference between the engines and would they notice?

GO CRAZY! :2guns::Punk::wari::2guns:

Well if they wont notice the engine, they probbaly wouldn't notice the different frame either.
And seeing as they use the same body parts (tank, rear plasics etc) you may as well just swap the decals over

To make it legal, you need it certified, once certified, its on the rego as 650cc. The cops would know before you got your helmet off.

you might get the 650 engine to fit into the 250 frame but would the frame handle the extra power? :blink:

Same frame aren't they ? just with the 250 version they use a weiner motor instead of the big brother ?

I always thought they sat in the same frame anyway so what is there to gain from doing this?

Because if you have it registered as a 250CC, slam in a 650cc motor, cop pulls you over they ain't going to go "it's a 650cc registered bike".

Would the cop notice the difference in size of engined?
Would the WOF people notice you have changed the engine?

the real issue has been missed here

650 or 250, its still a hyobag

with all that effort is there not a beter way to waste money

hell if you really wanted to through it down a hole, get an nsr, heaps more fun and hasn't been beaten with an ugly stick:wari:

No, the frames and mountings are completely different. Nor would you want to even contemplate that - the 250 is wriggly learner bike, and the 650 is quite a well-planted sport tourer. The 650 goes like a haunted shithouse in comparison to the 250, and its vastly better composed than the 250 on the open road. The 650 engine in the 250 frame would be courting disaster on a grand scale.

I have two 250's and a 650. Forget it.

I think the real question is being missed here. If you had any old 250 and managed to lump in a larger engine and took it down to the WOF station would they notice?

What do you need a picture of her doing to make sure I always have a WOF?

....a GT650R and it's snatchy, snarly, and bitey around town, and you will be glad for all the slow-speed balance, clutch slipping, first gear finding, and u-turn practice you did before you upgraded....

I had an '88 gsxr250 with a 400 in it. Not certed, always got a warrant, take it to VTNZ, they don't even ride them.

That's precisely why people shouldn't take their bikes to VTNZ.

So what you're suggesting by it is that to die by doing something like......ohhhh I don't know, let's say........motorcycling, is somehow manly?

That's wank.
