I'm not 100%, but I believe they can be pressed out, but are the parts available? I'd have to look into that. I haven't done this yet, but guys have cut them off, drilled out the hole in the a-arm, and added a bolt on adjustable heim joint. Might be something to look into or just drop the 💰 on aftermarket a-arms. If I ever need to do this, I'll make a video. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

I'm really happy to hear. I prefer a positive brake pedal over .7 mpg 😉. If you have a slight grab, possible a poorly cut drum if all is installed correctly. Perhaps back off a click or so to try to find a happy medium. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Thank you very much for reaching out and watching. 🤘😄

Thanks, I was hoping it would come together pretty decent. Thank you for watching.

Monster kicked in! 😆

Yep, I love it when he comes to help with some stuff in the shop. He's pretty comfortable in front of the camera.

He did a really great job! I'm looking forward to him jumping in more in the future. ❤️

Yep, struggles were had, but mission completed. Thank you for watching.

You're welcome. Thank you for watching and letting me know. If you have one of these, I wish you the best of luck. This bike has been a struggle to keep trail worthy.

Thank you for watching

😆 🤣 Thanks for watching

He's nice, eye candy!

I swear that's the same jar of anti seize since we bought our house in 2007!

@RachelPower-qn4pl a little smear goes a looong ways. If it actually lasted that long it would come with a loan application 🙃

I don't know, he had a little bit of attitude there at first! lol

@jackiemattox2715 that's a new guy.... thinking they know it all. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks

Yes, it was. I remember I noticed after I recorded. I used a part of a bicycle brake part as a spacer. It's hard for me to describe. It's the metal sleeve usually on the end of the plastic part of a brake cable. I put it in between the throttle cable end and the throttle slide cap of the carb. It's basically inside the rubber sleeve thats attached to the cap.. Just make sure it's going to pull out the slack and not get stuck in any way, causing the throttle to not close all the way. I hope I'm not confusing you, too much. This has been working for me. Hope this helps you figure it out. Thank you for watching.

I tuned the carb lean- pilot, needle & main to counter the homemade air box. Still slightly on the fat side with the provided jets, but runs better than previous setup. My favorite part is the bike starts right up. That was always my nightmare from out the box with this thing. If I come up with something else I'll make an update. Thanks for watching.

After the process, I cleaned the area where the decals were going to go with some auto paint prep cleaner or like a windex without alcohol. Then, I applied the decals. Mine are still holding up just fine, and they're cheap replica decals. I hope your works out, too. Thanks for watching.

Thank you asking. I didn't realize I never added them. The parts are now in the description. You will need to copy and paste. I'm currently unable to add links in my descriptions. I think it's bc the channel isn't big enough. Thank you for watching.

😆 thanks. Have to have some fun! Thank you for watching.

That's so cool to hear. I put the parts in the video description. Pretty simple to find them on amazon or ebay. I'm just unable to add links at this time. Thank you so much for watching.

@@NOURSEPOWER thanks, damn ive searched both up and down and not one that looks the same or a light with those same mounting brackets. Ive done every replacement if the videos, diff is i did take it down to bare frame and paint everything and wire wheel or replace every bolt. It def wont be seeing any mud lol

@andysilbereisen2 copy, I'll see if I can get a link to at least copy and paste on here. Thanks for being patient

​@@andysilbereisen2 added a copy and paste link in the description. That converter isn't the exact same but is the same. I apologize, but I'm just unable to add links in descriptions at this time.

Thanks bro. Funny cause thats the one i ordered yesterday. And did you the 20x10 or 20x11 rear tires

Are you referring to the side cover?

Screwdriver and a hammer 🔨 👌 😆

Thanks for watching 😀

No, not on this bike. Thank you for watching. Apologies, I didn't explain much in the video. I was still getting used to the whole camera deal.

Def not comparing to new oem or even new aftermarket plastics. It's just a budget friendly way to take the bike from looking old & tired to clean & way more attractive. Thank you for watching. I'm going to run her hard and will at some point do an honest follow-up.

I see a lot of comments about how heat only works for a short time. I can see if you are only using heat, but if you sand off the top layers and get down to into the plastic, why would it not maintain the shine at least as long as it did the first time? Also, what if you sand it down, use heat to make it shine, and then apply as plastic adhesion promoter and about 5 layers of clear coat on top? Would that outer clear coat protect the shine? I’m asking because I am considering doing this on the plastics of a red 1985 Honda ATC 110.

I use the same oil I put in the case. Or maybe a little cheaper oil bc I let the clutch break in for a day of riding and then change over to the better oil. I'm running Lucas Mc semi synthetic oil 10w-40, right now.

Thanks for watching

😆 thanks, my friend. So far, so good on that purchase. This is a bike, I just don't want to put much money into it, but I have worked hard to get it safe and reliable. Thank you for watching.

😆 #savesportquads Thanks for watching, I hope you can save yours, too.

@@NOURSEPOWER thinking of just buying maiers mine have huge gouges and chips

@viceanime7685 Don't feel defeated, my friend. These plastics and bikes take a beating. I'm surprised the materials used from back then haven't become so brittle, they crack just from looking at them at this point. It's really nice we still have the aftermarket option. ##savesportquads

True words here. I agree with you ##savesportquads. Plastics are not cheap either, so if the oem just need some love, to me, it's worth the try. I know you can go another level of effort in restoration, but I plan to ride this machine. If it was too nice, i wouldn't want to get her dirty. Lol. Thank you for watching, my friend.

Awesome, thank you for watching. I got the shocks off ebay they're dual rate air shocks for 250x. Slight upgrade from stock but huge step from 38yr old shocks. Lol. I took the spacer off the stock oem shock and cut to about 3/4". No issues yet.

Wow! Thank you for the kind words. Work your way up on the heat steps, keep moving, and push it along. You'll see the shine pushing away the dullness once you're doing it. I'm really happy to help, and thank you for watching. 😃

I don't know what you're talking about. 😬

The gray and red both came out clean and bright for 1987 plastics. I wasn't going into a deeper buffing process with an atv that would be ridden on the trails again. Thanks for watching.

Awesome! Yes, don't be shy with the grease and clean off the excess to keep dirt from sticking to it. Have fun! Thank you for watching. 😃

Lol, nice catch! I assure you I did put the overflow tube back on. I ended up not adding that clip. Thanks for watching.

Happy to help. Thanks for watching!

You can cut the stock ones off and put bolt on style don't remember exactly where to cut but a quick Google search will tell you where

I just looked at my 400ex and if you measure the inside of the opposite side where the ball joint is welded then you know where to cut if that makes sense

@garrettraveling2059 thanks for sharing your knowledge in the comments. Helps keep the community growing. 👌

Got them off ebay. Search honda 250x air front shocks, 87-92 250x rear shock. 1 slight mod for front shocks. I took the spacer out from the old shock and basically cut it in half to use as a spacer for the new front shock lower bolt. Easy mod. Good shocks, slight upgrade from stock. Thanks for watching.

Also check out the Front end begins and ends in the Honda 250x playlist, for some more info. ua-cam.com/video/0ywbuDcF1wU/v-deo.htmlsi=pS488aB88uhrdQ5i

The red I was thinking the same after a ride, but even after a wash and a recoat of the shine restorer seemed to bring it right back. I haven't tried on all red or black plastics and those, I'm not sure yet. Thanks for sharing your input and watching the video.

I see a lot of comments about how heat only works for a short time.

@@coachwilson954 I would think clear coat on the plastic is a bad idea because it doesn’t have flex. And the clear will just crack. So it would shine but be cracked.

@@NOURSEPOWER so 7 months later how is it holding up?

@@TheH-Dfamily good point!

Thanks for watching. I used a plastic welder. I do have a video on my channel where I show how I repaired the massive fender crack.
