A few days ago I bought an ATV with what a thought was a bend frame. The mechine is an 1985 Honda fourtrax 250 shaft drive. It hasnt been run in more than 6 months. I picked it up friday night and the only problem with it was the frame was net 2 or 3 inches out of place. The guys said the frame was bent in the front but when i got it home and I should it to some of my friends mechanics we discovered that the only thing bent was the swing arm in the back. So I heated it up with my torchs and bend it down with the spud bar. All 4 wheels were then on the ground. The next step was to get it running. All I had to do was clean the air filter and clean the mouse nest out of the air box and air intake tube. Also i drained the old gas out of the tank and splashed in some new. I though i would be crankin on it for a while before it would start but it scared me when i tapped the start button and it fired up like it was new. I only bought the thing for 200 bucks and I think it is the best 200 bucks i have evr spent. Because the motor that thing has in it will run forever.
