I must say its really nice machine. I dont know a whole lot about it though. Maybe you guys can tell me the good and the bad. Also what should I do (mods) to it everything seems to be stock. All feedback will be appreciated!!!

EDIT: Forgot to add its a 1986 model

 

I'll give you the good and the bad...........HOLD ON TIGHT!!!!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] you got a good bike[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Here's the most important tip of all.

If you are a prior Honda owner, you probally already know, but just in case...

When you change your oil, be absolutely sure that you replace the oil filter correctly. If you install it bakwards[easy to do] it burn up the head, cam, and rocker arms.

Nearly all the 350X,250ES,250SX,TRX300,TRX300EX, and TRX250X engines you find for sale with bad heads were due to this.

If a person pays attention to what they are doing, the filter is marked "Outside..Towards filter cover" on one end and "This side towards spring and engine" on the other......but it's still surprising to see how many nver read this warning.

Congrats with your 350X purchase...It's a Hoss!

 

Where is the best place to get parts? What are the best mods on a limited budget?
I just spent most of my money on the 3wheeler!

 

In my opinion, Powroll is the place to get hopup parts for the 200X and 350X.

These guys have stood by the ATC market while others took off with the quads and never looked back.


TC Racing[Tom Carlson Racing] built some badboy 250X and 350X engines in the mid-nineties, but I am not sure if they still mess with them or not.

 

Woke up this morning went out tried to get it running I screwed up and kicked it over like 20 times, When it was turned off. :eek anyways now I cant get it running I think I flooded it right? What should I do my freakin ankle and leg are killing me. lol

 

Refer to the manual, turn off the engine, hold it open throttle with the choke off, kick it like 10 times, turn it back on, and kick it with quarter throttle.

 

I got it running I read that on the tank right after I was on here. Man my ankle is killing me!!! I am going to have to buy an electric starter. So does anyone know the best place to buy one at a good price?

Couple of questions, Hopefully someone will help me out.
1. What kind of gas do you guys run?
2. What brand of oil do you use?
3. What brand spark plug?
4. Where can I get the stuff to do an oil change? Anywhere locally?
5. What is the best pain releiver for my ankle? Haha

Thanks

 

1. Premium......cost is cheap for the amount of gas you will use
