hi i was looking at trading my 82 5-speed 250r (honda) for a 1996 polaris trailboss 250 i need reverse thats the only reason for a trade-off.how is the power suited on these,I mean i know the power issue will be far less on a boss,any way what do you think?

 

250r like the 250 two stroke sport?

 

If you are looking for speed the 250 Tboss isnt what you want.But it is a good worker and fun to ride but dont expect a speed demeon

 

I'd keep the 250r, and deal with pushing it backwards.

Or just sell it and get something like a z400.

 

i am not looking for the fastest bike aroun i just want somthing that will beat a 400 big bear (NEIGHBORS) and be a good worker at the same time is a polaris good all-around quad and is there problems i should know of?also does any one know how theyare in snow?

 

get a sportsman, im SURE there are ppl that will trade off a sportsman for a 250r.

 

Like the others said to do what you want a you need something other than a 250 Trailboss

 

A big bear does like 45mph tops due to there gearing. My 2wd 250 MOTO 4 was faster than my 4x4 Big Bear.

A 250r 3 wheeler,thats Hondas 3 wheeler with a Cr250 2 stroke motor? If so that will smoke bretty well any ATV made period.

 

Guys he said it's a 1982, it's NOT a TRX250R, it's an ATC 250R. Also it would be an air-cooled engine. Not a higher performance liquid.

A 1996 Trail Boss certainly wouldn't be my first choice if moving from a trike to a quad, but to each their own. There are many better choices in the Polaris line-up than 13 yr old technology. Polaris has come a long, long way in the last 5-8 yrs.

 

well i did not do the trade thanks for all the help though.
