she needsa a lil tlc in the looks dept.. but ya'll know im good at that :)
 
nice trade man!! Youll get so much more use outta that quad than you would have outta that bike. Unless the hybris build went into process but the honda will run forever. I hate to say that on a yamaha site but hondas are awsome machines. BUt still ot bad your on the darkside. Cant wait to line up with you...
 
haha yeah i rather trade stuff over sell than try to buy... kid started it when i got there, than when i went to ride it it wouldnt start, traded him anyways, got home, pulled the plug and cleaned it and put it back in and she fired on the first kick..

took it for aride down the road.. definatly gotta get usedto the low end power!!!
it is nice having hydro brakes all around though.. seems to be pretty snappy.. i doubt its as fast as 'bad biish' was but ill work with it.. its gonna be my summer trail rider, and hopefully come winter ill have a atc250r or trx250r for tearing up the ice!!

Thats a good idea. But ive heard of people running 250r pipes on blaster and they ran like sh*t. Actually flotek posted that in a thread way way back. If I were you id talk to him and find out whats up with that for sure before you go spen the 75 on the pipe.Its still a steal either way though

well.. all else fails i can pipe up the lrd, clean it up and sell it for alot more than i pay for it to fund a good pipe for hers
 
the blaster roller went buh bye... had to use to many parts off it to make the wifes blaster safe to ride, took front brakes, a arms off, cables, rear hubs and rear rims and tires, i had no use for what was left so i sent it with for the 250x...

hence why ima build the wifes blaster, than come this fall we will get her another utility quad since thats what she likes better, so the 250x and the blaster wil be mine than
 
My buddy has a 250x.. It rides a lot better then a stock blaster and has a lot better low end power. He also has a big bore kit on his BUT my piped blaster still beats it in a race. He pulls on me threw 2nd but once I hit 3rd I start gaining on him and by the time I hit 4th I"m already ahead of him.

When you go looking for a good utility quad, get a Honda and dont think twice. Ranchers are nice because they arent that big, but then you lose stability. Rincons are nice because they are powerful and sportier, and the Foreman fits in right in the middle. Actually right now my dad wants to buy a second Foreman so we can go riding as a family. Ive beat the crap out of ours, but the only thing weve ever had to do is replace the front half shaft and boots. That was when it was new actually. Its fairly common that they tear and will ruin the half shafts.

Good luck with the 250x. You cant really go wrong with a Honda.
 
My 250x. 12:1 piston web cam mikuni pumper carb.

This thing kills my blaster.

Broke a valve at the end of this vid. Got it fixed though.



My 54 year old pops hillclimbing it this past friday.
