It won't be competitive, either from a suspension, chassis, or engine standpoint, you'd be competing in the 250 class against bikes with 40+ HP, weighing at least 50lbs less, with forks that aren't spaghetti noodles.

If you rode it as fast as possible on an MX track, my chief curiosity would be what would break first. These might theoretically last a bit longer in a hare scramble, but even then, completing an event would be an enormous victory, because something in the chassis would almost definitely let go.

It wouldn't really be safe to try, IMHO, because something breaking would be virtually guaranteed, and if you're riding when a wheel explodes, good luck not breaking something yourself.
