CR250 92-96 Subframe on CRM250AR

As the title suggests.
Ive been trawling images on the net again :(
It looks like the rear subframe from a CR250 will fit a CRM250 frame? has anyone tried this?
Purely in the sake of better fitmet for CR250 seat and rear plastics etc.

Let me know.
Cheers all you big ears!

Re: CRM250AR Strip Down Diet?

Oh yeh,
The bike has only done 3700KM's, whilst I have the motor from the frame is it worth doing a top end/piston on such low milage? And if so any specs I need to squeeze an extra pony or two here?

Thanks Spokey for the quick reply..

Do you mean grind a slot across in a diag direction?
It just seems to sit very tight/flush against the dirt/dust seal?

Thanks again,
