- Thread starter Braapbraap95
- Start date
88-89 is the besy usally the newer the better but theres really no diffrence in the 86-87 I think there was alittle change they made to the crank which add like 5hp not sure thats what I heard
correct, any year trx 250r is a good buy, hell if you really wanna go fast get a85-86 atc 250r I:I
when you get a 250r.. check out the lrd 350 bg bore power valve set up and lrd big bore pipe
Hey all I know is that I see a couple cherried out 250rs with bbks, new plastics, a-arms, swingers, everything go for under 3 grand.
My buddy had one 12 years ago when they wasnt collector items....wasnt a trike /quad around that we rode with that had him on the snap....top speed sucked...tires...lol When I had a 350x I had him in a half mile easy but he would kick dirt/gravel in my face every drag....lol...no sh*t
I ride with a guy who has one and it is sick----and fricken LOUD! It is a big bore 330 and handles like a dream. On theHonda forums they suggest only going to a 310 as it is more reliable and less finicky. As far as reliability, I think that the Blaster probably has it as well as any other 2-stroke sport quad beat handsdown. Where it gets interesting is when you build a Blaster to have the power of a 250r then it is not going to be as reliable as the stock 250r. Blaster's are just so simple- like my old Volkswagen. Drive it like you stole it, give it a hug,change its oil, and do it again tomorrow! I have whipped the hell out of my Blaster and people on Banshee's and 450r's are amazed at what it can do and that it never causes me problems.

See thats where we differ. I always blew my blaster up. I'm looking for something more reliable, and faster.
my GF's step dad has an 86 (i think) that he bought new and he has never had a problem with it, all he's ever had to do to it is replace a couple of bearings and he replaced the piston about 10 years ago but just because he heard that he should not because it was bad.
f*ck a 330 you wanna see khoas on 4 wheels, iv said it before and ill lay it down again..
