Kawi and Honda stored in the same garage??
I found a super buy on a 2001 Honda 300EX. I can't resist; I'm buying it for my son. My question is: is it safe to store both ATV's in the same building? I'm worried about going out one morning only to find the Honda melted down, or even worse, to discover that the P650 has gotten slow due to being in close confines with a Honda! There may be some sort of parallel universe effect, or possibly a rift in the time/space continuum. Maybe a wall down the center of the building to keep them separated, perhaps with a lead lining?? Any ideas??[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

There is no hope for the Honda, it will perish. Unless......you paint it lime green. You may fool the old Kawi into thinking its one of her own. Thats your only chance, good luck.

As long as you either keep the ignition keys turned off, or make sure there is a chaparone (sp?) present when the ignitions are turned on, you should be ok. We keep a Honda 90, a Yamaha YFZ450, two Yamaha Grizzly 660s, a Kawasaki V-Force 700, and a Bombardier DS650 in the same garage, and there has been no interbreeding yet.

We have owned several different brands over the last year, I make sure i keep the big Kawasaki strapped down on the trailer or completely off the trailer and in my truck. I also make sure the keys aren't left in it. I worry about the Kawasaki bulling the lesser rides and use heavy rachet straps to make sure it can't get lose to hurt them when I am not around.

Oh come on!!!!!! I think it would be good for the Honda to rub off a little speed on the P650, we all know the Honda has speed to spare!

Does this sound like a decent buy on a 2001 300EX: very good shape, DG pipe and the stock pipe, still has the original tires, although mostly worn out - $2600 Can, that's about $1850 US.
Jason- maybe the little Suzuki can break up any fights until it's sold, lol. Anyone want to buy a 2000 LT80 in great shape with some add-on features? (wheel spacers, serrated footpegs, etc).
