We did not market them because my father copied an existing design that was vertical and sideway adjustable with lockpin holes every inch or so apart. Same thing when we made skidplates for our MR250s . He borrowed a Graham Sheet Metal MR250 skidplate from a friend of his prior to it's installation

When the crank seal goes on the tranny side there's no bugs flying for a few hundred yards.

So far every used running two stroke bike I had ended up with the crank seals going soon after I purchased it. This can get costly if it seizes and the crank rod bearing goes south too in the process. I think if I take a used running bike apart first then disassemble it and replace what ever it needs now ahead of time ill have a good running bike for a longtime. I never skimp on a restoration/rebuild. It's the inside that counts..

I'm into restoring tractors too. Some guys call a new paint job a restoration. I lol inside when a few weeks later there taking it apart to rebuild the engine. To me it has to run perfect before it looks pretty. I just was never lucky with the used 2t to get a good running one when I purchased them.

When I bought my first 430 the crank seals were bad that's why he sold it. I don't think the PO could figure it out and that's why I got it fairly cheap. Soon after buying my other 430's the crank seals failed. All on the drive side and would suck tranny fluid into the crank case.
