yup the idiot that suggested the 250ex be shaft driven over at honda should be beat to death.

they shouldve styled it after the 250r. they wouldve sold a whole lot more goin that route. but oh well. the 250ex is the most reliable quad i have ever seen.

yeah i mean i actually like it and the z250 for jus woods and mud riding. no chain adjusting!:yes:

my dad hated chain drives after my lil brother predator 90. it had a defect in the chain tensioner and it would brake off every freakin ride. and when it broke the chain came off. luckily it never cracked the case.but he has had a change of heart after my 400ex, we havent had 1 problem outta its rear end.

raptors are made for trails. and like bot said a couple mods like jets, exhaust, and airfilter it could tackle anything rele.

but back on the dirtcycle subject. me and daddio are goin out shoppin for one, after he wraps up work. so im pumped. gunna hit up a couple dealerships for their used inventory and jus cruise around lookin for "for sale" signs.

In stock form, I'm pretty sure every 450 can beat it in a drag. With those 3 mods it is practically untouchable. California emissions which all of them set their quads to, is very restrictive.

they set all the rappys to california emmsions? or what i didnt quite get that:confused:

When you buy a new ATV, let it be Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawi... They set the jetting to run at sea level and pass California emissions. The elevation here is 5280 above sea level. My quad was set to run at sea level. They don't set up certain quads for certain areas.

i can understand that, wow you must be happy you rejetted:yes:

i dont think bot has rejetted

You are right and wrong! I did rejet for the elevation change. The main jet is what I have changed. I usually run a 110 in the main and the rest is stock. I need to get my carb dialed in with a jet kit. Right now, I expel more exhaust than air I take in. It needs to balanced out.

      First post here need some help/advice. I bought a 2001 king quad 300, vin number JSAAK43A212111871. I have been trying to do some basic maintenance as it runs but doesn't idle all that well . I want to take out and clean/repair the  carb but when looking for parts it ask for model X Y K1 K2. How do I know which model I have? I have tried some vin decoders but they haven't told me. If anyone could recommend a carb rebuild kit for my quad Id appreciate it. Also any tips on tracking down an owners manual?

      Recently picked up a 1991 Lt230e for repair. Compression is a little low Id say, around 80psi, I also have spark but the spark is odd . When cranking the spark is a constant arc. I’ve got it to sputter but never fully turn on. I believe the spark is my issue, being constant and not detonating at the right time. I’m not sure whether this issue is an electrical fault like some missing ground, a faulty cdi, or a timing issue. Any ideas where I should start?
