this looks like the quad for me. I was going to get a recon until i saw this. but im not buyin' it till i find out how it works.any one have anymore info on it?

 

i guess not.23 poeple have veiwed it but none left any messages.

 

umm it should be faster than the recon....it has a higher compression ratio and is lighter.....I'm sure it will be just like every other honda and handle really good....it will be a bullet proof quad for sure.....

 

about all the info we have is from the website and speculation right now...we'll hafta wait until it hits the dealer showrooms...

 

I'm still not sure (why) yet. People that want a sport that size should buy the 300ex. I have a 400ex and a Lakota for my wife, but the Lakota probably runs faster and has more power. They call it a 250 but it is a 230 actually. Of all the wheelers I can think of they must be trying to take the Lakota buyers or wolverine I think.

But the great thing is Honda is putting out more rides, all the better for us ridders. My two cents. Later

 

The key differences between the new 250ex and the 300ex: The new 250ex has
1. semi-automatic trans (auto-clutch)
2. shaft drive
3. easy to operate reverse

Its looks like its aimed at first time sport riders - great for families, or even someone coming off of a utility ATV.

 

well im 13. ive got a suzuki 230 E. its just a tad to slow. my dad and are lookin at it. do you think its the right size

 

The Recon is light sporty and fun. Take that engine, add a little more power, put it in a sportier package with a better suspension and brakes, and chop off 50 pounds. It ought to be a great machine. I had ridden for years when I got my Recon and I was never dissappointed with it. I predict the 250EX will be a wonderful, low maintenance, easy to ride machine.

 

well im looking for a sporty ride. Ive been riding my 94 suzuki230e since i was 7.not alone though.i rode with my mom till i was 11.

 

you son sounds like he's getting really good. i dont like hill climbs were you go up turn on the hill and come down it freaks me out!
