1989 YFM200 Moto 4
- Thread starter Blaner
- Start date
Ive got an 85 moto 4. its the 250 2wd utility, cant kill those things. Ive beat the sh*t out of that thing and it still goes. Sept it used to do about 50mph and now only does 35, lol
ha ha yeah they not speed machines by any means but you cant kill them, the cylinder still had hone marks after 19 years! we really sent that thing up places we shouldnt have but more than often it suprises...the front suspension was poked so we fitted new shocks and bushes etc
i bought mine for 50 bucks, put 14 inch truck wheels and 205/75R14 mud/snow tires on the back and put 2 3/4 inch exhaust from the side of the engine to out the back end, relocated battery to the front rack and upgraded sizes a little to run my lights, added a lawn mower seat to the rear rack to carry an extra person comfortably and i also welded on a suicide shifter with dice shifter I:I....top speed in 4th gear is 57mph, 5th gear really flies!! one of my military buddies has a 550 honda 4wd and he said mine had no guts until i left him sitting...he could only to 56mph :lol

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is one origional pos
sorry about the threadjack but dayum! that first moto was clean as a whistle
Just a few things... the first moto is clean good job restoring a classic blaner!
The second moto is a cobbled mess and would be better off being parted out and put to good use.
What kind of honda 4wd is a 550cc? 56mph sounds like a 500 foreman or rubicon, the 650/680 rincon will go about 65mph

57 mph??? Maybe down a very long hill. With them big heavy tires and all that other stuff on it, I bet you can only do about 30 tops.
hey who resurrected my thread?! haha i posted this about 3years ago! moto4 is still going strong they are amazing those old granny mobiles
sorry for threadjackin you but mine was only 50 bucks and had been beat around by a 300 pound idiot before i got it.....im proud of that pile of scrap 
even though it has no brakes......not sure what kinda honda it was, pretty damn big though with the rack on the back
even though it has no brakes......not sure what kinda honda it was, pretty damn big though with the rack on the backthe engine is loose and wore out so it revs easy, the tires dont weigh alot because they are just 3 ply car/truck tires, it changed the ratios alot by going from a little wheeler tire to 14 inch truck wheel
my grandfather actually got it in about 1990 to use around his small holding. i know of 3 others but they all were a little older and have a pull start. ours is electric!
my scrap heap 1987 200 moto4 is electric too good thing too cuz the pull start is wore out and wont go back in 
and no im not talking out of my ass....ive went ridin with several friends and they have seen it go that fast and ive felt it as ive done it on the hwy coming back from a trail
