Questions & Answers
My stand is only for vintage two-stroke engines with displacements of 250/360 cubic inches. It serves them well.
The dimensions of an XS650 are unknown to me. A 500cc Rotax engine, as well as a Honda XR 500 engine, are both too big.
No twins
Yes, a 450 would fit perfectly; my bike was originally equipped with a Honda 400ex engine.

This engine stand works perfectly for M 2T 205cc engines, though I wish the engine was more secure on one side. While there are two pins to hold the engine in place, only one has a bolt to secure it to the stand, so there is a small amount of sturdiness that could be increased. The oil pan is a nice addition that has already saved me some time in the kitchen. This is something I would recommend if you plan on rebuilding at least a couple of different engines. I'd save the money for parts if you only need to rebuild it once.
br>Consbr>They should rethink how the motor is held in place so that it is centered in the frame and rotates around the pivot. The motor is unbalanced and heavy when rotated. The motor collides with the frame, preventing the lock from locking flat on one side. br>The bottom tray is a great drip pan, but it needs to be bolted on because it slides around. br>Prosbr>Very well constructed, sturdy, and secures the motor. br>I love the drip pan. br>The multiple locking positions are fantastic and really work! Very steady. br>Overall, I'm very pleased with it.
It's simple to maintain and operate. He can work on 125 and 250 motors on a work table, rotate them, carry them to the back of a truck, and so on. br>He still enjoys it six months later.
This isn't suitable for larger engines, such as the Raptor 660, but it should suffice for smaller engines such as 80cc and 125cc. It's also not particularly durable. I don't think it's worth buying. If you have the ability to, make your own.
I had to go to the hardware store to get a smaller all threaded rod to fit the main mounting point on my CB400 engine because it just barely fits. In order to install casters, I also drilled holes at the bottom. Works like a charm now. I just have to tack weld the frame together or put a bolt through it to make it one piece. There's no need to disassemble it.
While my frame is being powder coated, the CR500 engine has been sitting in it for about a month.
It's awesome to be able to work on your motor on a work bench, rotate it, and then transport it in the bed of a tuck! I used it to clean up a ktm 125, and I'm planning on building a rmz 250 and 450 soon, so I'm looking forward to using it even more!.
It's a great design that's light, strong, and easy to store. The only thing I wish for is threading on both sides of the engine mount to truly secure the motor.
