i have alot of interest in making a project out of this 250r i can get for a sweet deal, '89 all original, original motor/bore, and the thing runs great. 1300. My question is how are they in the woods and for jumping?

 

One of the best bikes iver made in my oppinion Great Jumping and the best handling out of anybike! way way better than that warrior ur on..

 

yeah i need something that i can air out a little more, dont get me wrong the warrior has done everything ive told it to do and has NEVER let me down and its a great all around quad, but it jumps like a pig. i want something i can really rip around, leaving the warrior to the mud and punishment...

 

I have an 88 250r and am in the middle of a rebuild the money i have spent I should have just bought a new 450
I have so much invested i will never be able to sell

 

i would probably do the bearings and the bushings just because, im not going to do a full frame off restoration and spend a ton of money, in all honesty the bike is in great mechanical condition. maybe do the suspension, but thats when it starts to get expensive. slomoe, did you do a complete restoration and if you did how deep into it are you? thanks for the opinions.

 

i bought a new top end and put a new crank and bearings in. that is just what iam doing now.
you have to remember that it is a 20 year old quad. thing just wear out.
I like this quad very much I just seem to always be spending money on this quad.
