That Honda 250 is probably still running today lol. Can’t beat a Honda ATV
Mine runs like a top still
Just got one today but the engines locked up but I’ve been workin on it
Yup I have a 200sx and it runs
I have the same one man I fucking love my old Honda tops of at 55
A m e n !!
I got one from 1987 for 100 euros (because the seller said "it's dead" I just changed a spark plug, cleaned the air filter and changed the starter brushes. now it runs like clockwork. This is my first Quad and it is wonderful. I repainted and patched up the bodywork, I love it ❤
I just bought one that has 10 rides or so on it. Super clean and maintained. Pretty fast bike also.
Have a 85 Honda fourtrax 250 best atv I have ever owned still runs like a top all I had to do to get her going was a carb rebuild after it had sat for a couple years outside just basic maintenance is all I have needed to do first gear is super low with plenty of torque for my towing hauling needs and it is super fun to ride those old 250s are absolute tanks
Yes, they were built to last.
I like how it's literally an atc 250es engine slapped onto a 4 wheeler.
The Big Red 250es and the Fourtrax Trx250 both released in 1985 so they shared an engine from the beginning. They put this engine in several machines including the Atc 250sx, so it wasn't just a 250es engine. And the modern honda 300's and similar machines still use an engine that is a direct descendant and almost identical in a lot of ways.
I like how 🫵🏻 liked it 👍🏻
My grandparents and their retired friends around the Sierra Nevada foothills all had these. I rode these for so many years as a kid, I can still remember all the little quirks and just how to get the most out of them.
I bought this same type of quad from one of my neighbors and restored it and it's the best running quad I've ever had! Never had engine issues, can go up to 30 miles an hour, and I can pull a trailer!
I promise that it should go a lot faster than 30 mph, closer to 50. Probably faster than a 2022 Recon 250.
@@Cobra37061 your right
@@Cobra37061yea it will smoke a recon and a 250ex it has a bigger displacement engine at 246cc vs a 229cc on the recon and 250ex and it’s a higher tech engine with overhead cam
@@lukecombs5242 I also noticed that Honda rated the towing capacity of the 1985-87 TRX250 at 850 pounds, but they have the Recon's towing capacity rated at just 500 pounds.
@@Cobra37061 they sure made the old ones a lot simpler and beefier
I have one and I’ve put it through hell and back and it won’t stop running
They are most certainly bullet proof!
My dads 87 was the first thing I ever drove and I still drive it often
Hey look! More big red parts!
i have a 1986 and it still runs like its brand new
I have two but one of them doesn’t work😅
LoL!! The wheeler at the end is an 84 trx 200 anyone else notice?
I hadn't noticed that, looks like Honda was being sneaky, LOL!
Yeah I noticed it had the 200 rear diff.
Definitely noticed the front plastic had the vents off to the side and realized it was a 200 Fourtrax!
I owned a 1987 trx250 and owned it for 16 years and beat the dog shit out of it every day and it never quit never done any motor work besides oil changes and clean the carb and rebuilt the rear differential only because I didn’t keep the gear oil changed properly and changed a couple from wheel bearings and brakes he’ll who needs em with a super low transmission she was the best quad I ever owned wish I still had her best quad ever built they say the 300 was the best but the 250 was better sure the 300 rode better but the 250 did everything else better and had more power then the 300 I smoked countless 300s in my area I had the fastest utility quad around with the old 250 one day there was 5 300s running full out and I passed them all with a quarter throttle left man was a loyal quad.
Oh yeah those 250s are the best have a 85 250 had sat for a couple years all it took was a crab rebuilt and that is it thing still runs like a top l love my 250
The 4 trax isn't the strongest or the fastest atv, but its by far the most durable and reliable.
Honda's inevations, QC, and durability are second to no one. And I'm a Polaris guy.
No joke mine still has the same oil since it was I got it is like 20+ years (2nd hand)
That's a Honda!
Please change your oil properly. P.s. and filter it will last 100 years
@@lukecombs5242 nah she a Honda not Ktm
These were made for exactly what there showing in the vid not hauling ass riding 3rd gear hi range wheelies on your atc250x
I know🤣 ive owned both
I have a 250sx and used to ride with a guy that had one of these. He could outrun me on a long stretch of road. I couldn’t believe it.
Do I premix the gas on this bike or gas only in tank?
Gas only, they are 4 stroke.
Ephesians 5:4 in the Bible: nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving
This is not the devil's machine, get over yourself.
i jak będziecie kiedyś kupować quady to przeglądać wszystko uważnie ja mojego pierwszego quada mam chińczyka to gość w ogłoszeniu kłamał gdzie wzlazlo quad niby z 2014 a się okazuje że rok 2012 w ogłoszeniu silnik 125 a się okazało potem że jest to 110 tylko rama jest 125 i bierzcie takiego kogoś kto się zna albo poproście mechaników motocykli jeśli uprosicie i ich żeby pojechali

So you know it’s got to be good 👍🏻
Yeah still not as cool or neat as the atc250sx just saying.
John 3:3 in the Bible: Jesus replied, very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born again
Wtf this have to do with the trx 250?
Had this very model, great machine
Agreed. They were certainly tough, many of them still running most likely...with minimal maintenance.
farmers wearing helmets..... nope
