I just got a 250EX. It's sweeet!!!!

 

How do you like it? Are you a beginner?

 

we have one too, the first thing you should do is reverse the front wheels, and put a set of 20" tires (like stock 400EX tires or Kenda Scorpions) on the rear...

this will make it a much better handling quad and allow it to slide better....

stock, it's a little tippy


But I agree, it's an extremely rider friendly quad, and it's great at wheelies and jumping too

 

Beginner on that but an expert on my old breeze!
I couldn't ride a wheelie in first leaning back on the seat and lifting my handle bars. But it is awsome!

 

The more i ride my 250ex the more i like it. And an easy way to pop wheelies it to be in 1st or second gear and press the shifter down till you need to apply more pressure to push any farther then give some gas and let off the shifter. I can get some massive wheelies doin that.

 

They are a nice quad, for a OK price. 3rd gear wheelies are pretty easy. The suspension is a little on the stiff side though. I wish it was adjustable.

Congrats on your new quad!

 

tell me what you mean by reversing the wheels, and what it does thanks

 

You take the front wheels off and flip them, and bolt them back on. The wheels are not centered, they are offset rims, so it will widen the front wheelbase. Check to see that the valvestem won't hit anything!

I haven't tried it yet.

 

it's a little more complicated than that...

you'll need to pull the tires off, drill new valvestem holes on the wide part of the wheel and insert new valvestems, reverse the old stems inside so it won't hit the brakes, then pop out the steel lug nut hole inserts and reverse them too so that your rounded lug nuts will center themselves again or your wheels will wobble and/or come loose.

that's all... haha

but it beats paying $100 for wheel-spacers

 

All you have to do is tap the gas and it will wheelie.
