Wild HP 240
 
Picked up this beauty. The story goes these where raced in Spain 2003-2004.
Wild 300 are pretty rare i think let alone a special order 240 here in Wisconsin. Was originally sold in Minnesota though.

Well i must say i am very impressed with the build quality of the bike. Its top notch. Everything about it screams 250r.

Been in contact with go faster to find out just what kinda beast this thing is made of. So far what i get is 250 jug 300 bottom end special 240 piston special head?


I cant remember the Gentleman name i spoke to over there hopefully he will chime in.

Without further ado here is a wild 240

Wow:eek:
That looks fantastic. It must just rip! Hey you should stick a plow on the front and go terrorize the neighborhood. $20 a driveway.http://www.cafehusky.com/smilies/lol.gif

Its about worthless in anything over 2 inches of snow though. The swinger is 2 inches from the ground hangs up almost right away on contact with heavy snow.

Ya I know I was just fun'n.:D

They had one similar at the ice racing track with studded tires. Man did that thing ever hook up. I wish I would have taken some pictures of it.

Beautiful find! I'd love to add one of those to my collection.

Dude 01-30-2011 07:22 AM

Just sitting on the bike it has such a feel of quality and rigidness if that makes sense. It just feels like a Benz or something i guess. I would swear it was a lagers 250r frame.

Just a quick walk around. I am going to rip it down soon i think and have the pipe re done and clean up some of the dirt real good like lol.

Love my Wild 300! I wish Gas Gas would make them again. Of course mine is still great.

Dude 02-10-2011 10:59 PM

i nabbed a trx11 pipe today from duncan racing. Will begin the install as soon as it warms up a little.

Sending head off to RB for some re work. I would like to see about 55-60hp out of this motor. I do a lot of long runs around here and getting up to speed quickly is very important.

I sold of my 73 240z with triple weber blowthrough turbo setup....so i need my speed fix elsewhere.
