I loved that bike and was so jealous . LoL

So what's the difference between these Engines and the Rotax that were in Can Ams of the same period? I always thought the Harleys were just rebadged Can Ams...?
@charlescthewhitegorilla6959
No that mc 250 was developed off the sx250, back in the day Harley had a habit of making a street version the SS, and a trail bike the SX. But the mc engine was different in many ways frame completley new. They used what was learned with the sx and poured competetion type suspension and power in it. Some of the experimental ones had inverted forks instead of shocks. A close freind has one in near mint, in Sardinia Ohio. They were badass for a year or two but then comes Honda with an updated Elsinore 250 and they just couldn’t keep up. Sad that Harley gave up but they were making sales on streetable bikes and motocross was a novelty.
