i know this guy and hes got a buddy. that has a 350x that he was selling for 1,500 and now for 650 just cuz he don't have the time to ride it. its bored 40 over , piped and its got new tires and wheels im not shur what els tho. and he says it runs on this fuel that is like 4 somthing a gallen. 110 i think. he say it wont run on even 93 pump gas. im wondern if i re-jet it i can get it to run on pump gas. my buddy says it should cuz his 84 250R is bored all the way, piped ext.. and that runs on pump gas.. the guy says if anything gos worng with it with in like 3 / 4 months he will fix it for free. sounds like a good deal to me. what do you guys think. o yeah and iv been wanting for a 350x for a long time. so it sounds real good to me.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Requiring 110 octane fuel has nothing to do with jetting. It has to do with cylinder compression. Odds are that he has installed a high compression piston and possibly had it stroked, or even shaved the cylinder / head to give it more squish. There is no way to back up without changing internal components like the pistion. If it truely is a high compression engine, dropping the octane on the fuel should result in "detonation" or "pinging" which is quite destructive. You would hear it. If you do not hear pinging, I would be curious as to why he think it needs high octane fuel.

To be honest, it sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me, although, one must wonder why such a good deal exists. If you could get his 3/4 month warranty on paper, proceed.

Ride On.

 

i would deff buy it if it is in good shape take a look at it and it seems to have no major things wrong with it i would buy it

350x's is a sweet ride

 

if this thing runs and looks ok....BUY IT! BUY IT! BUY IT![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] 110 is easy to find. If you do not like it after you get it you could sell it and make money with no prob.

 

one of these days i will go up there and talk to the guy so to find out the real deal. if i can get it to run on pump gas i will. if i can't....who am i kidding i know im not going to be abile to trun that down.

 

Who cares it runs on 110 octane jump on it that is one sweet deal!
I hope you have a strong leg to kick that beast over..lol!
A personalized warranty also........you can't beat it...!

 

where is he ill offer 700$ lol j/k go check it out and if its clean and what not, get it man!

 

If i was you i would buy it immediately,
finding 110 octane is pretty easy.
If you buy it keep it, since 350 x's
were only made two year's.

-----------

86 350x fast
85 200x faster

 

i found that a new piston will be $96. i belive if i do that i can run it on pump gas. at least thats what the guys bud says. i will check it out for my self.

 

I would jump on that deal quick before it's gone IMO! You can get your money back if your not happy with it, with no problem parting it out. Jump before someone else does!
Later!
