Well now that Yamaha, honda, bombardier have high perfromance quads who will be next to come out with an even better machine??

 

who knows i just know i hope honda comes out with something bigger

 

I doubt it

 

Why wait for someone else to try to figure out everthing you yourself specifically want in an ATV.Build your own dream machine.I did.

88' 250R stock frame and transmission everthing else is aftermarket.

 

Lets here about your 250R"dream machine".I am rebuilding a '86.Interested in possible suspension/engine set-ups for this project.

 

88' 250R

ENGINE:K/N air filter with precharger,38mmAir Stryker carb,FTZ carb boot,90somthing CR 250 reed cage moded,Boysen reeds,FTZ porting,lightened crank w/ IMS Hotrod,Pro-X boost ported piston,FTZ CR 250 cilynder w/FTZ cool head,Answer Roost Boost,FTZ pipe and silencer.I also have a Hinson clutch basket,Barnett Dirt Digger clutch,Hinson counterbalancer holder,moded flywheel,Ricky's 200w stator.Accelleration feels like a mid-evil torcher device called "The Rack".LOL

SUSPENSION:Axis Zero preload shocks front and rear w/remote reseviors and adjustable everything.LSR +2" a-arms,billet hubs,shortened swingarm,LSR bearing carrier,antifade brake hub,posilock axle nut,dura blue X-33 axle and quick change hubs.
And much,much more.

 

Fivel250Rman.. that thing should really roll.
Questions..have you had any other shocks on the R? Do you think the axis are best?What is travel of the axis? What shock would you recomend for a rider who wants to do alot of jumping &really aggressive rough trail riding? Iwant to buy good shocks for my R the first time ..need input Thanx.

 

I've rode a couple wheelers with Works shocks and they are much much better than 13 year old stock suspension,they're also the cheapest I've found.Axis retail for the most and in my experiences you get what you pay for.I chose them because they are a division of Penske Racing who,I remember,build super high tech,spare no expense Indy car shocks...quality stuff.If you never want anyone to have a better trio of shocks than you,buyum!however other brands that cost less may be as good as Axis,I haven't had the opportunity to try the other kinds.I'm almost positive the are stock travel.One more point the best shocks in the world can suck bad if they aren't dialed in right.It takes some trial and error but its well worth it.Hope I helped.

88' 250R lots of extras
