All I can say is this my heart started pounding when I saw that first wurks atc pipe that Kenny built. I was excited when I saw the 200cc trike motors Honda and Kawasaki going together and his motors were running strong against the tpc trikes, that was an awesome thread till about page 5. I thought both builders did a good job. I know if it was me racing against those 4 pokes, I would design a chromoly or aluminum framed atc with custom built shortened inverted forks shave off some more weight and slap that bdt motor in there for next year, he could build some jigs and sell frames for other guys that want to go head to head with the tpc's. I like to read about guys building bikes in their garage or basement too or helping forum members with parts they need and giving free advice to help a guy keep his 2 stroke running. I don't want to take anything away from Neil either that guy seems to be another 2 stroke nut that spends a lot of time helping guys get their bikes running right, donating his time to help organize races etc...
 
I've been a member on here for a few years now & never heard of BDT (or Carlos) before here. I've read a lot of negativity & bashing towards BDT, I've always stayed out of it because I haven't dealt with them firsthand. I've gotten pretty leery of trying them because of things I've read (honestly some self inflected by Carlos). I decided to give them a try & order the CR ignition upgrade...I gotta say I'm pretty impressed by the results.
I started by messaging Carlos on here about my options & which would be best for me, I messaged him ALOT with every question I could think of & he was really good about answering all of them. I finally called him to place the order & ended up talking with him for quite some time about final questions & the install (it was really nice to speak with him instead of text). I had to get the coil mount reworked do to having an LSR frame, it can take up to a week just for shipping from California to me in Wisconsin, so I was really surprised that I received it yesterday by two day mail. Everything was individually bubble wrapped & packaged carefully.
I will definitely call on Carlos & BDT for my future 250R needs, that's again!!:)
Thank you Charlie, I am pleased to hear you are pleased. Call anytime you need any assitance, here to help :)

As far as the crap talk its kinda like this some like miller others like Guinness ya know. It's all based off personal ex p!!! My 2 cents! Maybe the day you called someone they were having a bad day people do have bad days just like every normal human.
 
bdt has always been there for me and my son.carlos and the whole bdt crew are awesome people..i think it's funny how people say crap and have never bought or delt with them,but they "know-it-all"...they are just following what they have read and are not going by personal experience..thats to bdt the 250r lives strong..
 
I haven't been in the 250R game for very long. I have spent a couple of months on this forum, mostly just reading and researching. I recently finished up a project bike and I bought an entire engine for it from Carlos. The engine I wanted had been robbed of its head so they could finish another engine up with it. So it took about an extra week for me to get my engine, which wasn't a big deal, because I had a lot of other work to do on the bike and was not particularly waiting on the engine. I told him I was fine with it. The engine arrived exactly when he told me it would the day I bought it, and they threw in a few little upgrades/freebies in the box for my wait. Not to mention the fact that the engine looks like a work of art and runs really strong. So while I'm not a BDT fanboy or loyal to anyone else either, I just like doing business with people who are business-like. BDT and Carlos have a positive vote from me and I will do business with them in the future.

Carlos is rebuilding my CR500 motor now top to bottom and all in between, with pro porting, high compression the whole 9 yards and I expect nothing but a torque monster high HP missile when I get it back! Not to mention customer service and communication has been bar none thus far!!!!
 
I'll trade you a worn out '87 all stock 250r engine for it, after he gets done... [emoji12]
