- The most essential modifications for Honda’s venerable 250X or 250EX
Honda’s TRX250X, formerly known as the TRX250EX, is a t nimble handling, peppy running, sporty looking machine that’s great at getting new riders hooked on the fun ATVing. It’s reliability allows it to be handed down in families again and again adding a lot to its value. One of the best things about it is that iIt’’s a machine that younger riders can afford to save up for and purchase.
Like any other sport, new riders tend to improve at the fastest rate in the beginning. In motor sports, even recreational ones, this often results in a desire for upgrades and performance parts. Based on our review of the 2016 250X and our time spent riding the machine since, we put together an upgraded version of the 250X and 250EX looking to improve it in every way while covering some absolute essentials.
With a few hours of installation time and a modest amount of money, we made our 250X a tougher, safer, and more stable ATV with peppier power and, in our overall opinion, increased its overall appeal. This combination of upgrades work well as a whole or you could pick and choose the upgrades that fit your needs best. This ATV is all about having fun, and we think our hopped up 250X delivers more of it. - Авто та транспорт
everyone is so distracted now a days with big numbers that they forget how much fun you can have a little, almost forgotten, 250X....i am 100% sure that most of the trail riders (wannabe racers) with 650, 800 and 1000cc bike would be having a lot more fun in one of these...i say that by personal experience...after falling into this black-hole of HP and displacement increase in the ATV Industrie, riding again a TRX400X just opened my mind to "go back to the roots"...i can only imagine how much fun this little tuned up 250 is...it must be a blast to ride!
Pe Peroni it is a lot of fun. And we couldn't agree more. A 1000cc ATV maybe four times the displacement but it's not nearly twice as much fun. A couple of buddies on 250X could have a lot more fun than one guy by himself on a 1000. Mini enthusiasts and the industry have both forgotten how much fun basic affordable ATVs can be
Amen.....trx400x is the average weekend warriors perfect trail machine.
Pe Peroni I couldn't agree more. I sold my 2001 Honda 250EX some years back. Wanted the money to pay for some work on a project car with my dad and wanted to get something faster eventually. I later purchased a 1985 Honda CR500R last year. My step dad still has the 2004 250EX he bought years ago for my step brother to ride with us when I still had my 250EX and my step dad was regularly riding his 300EX. In the past few weeks we got the 250EX going again and I forgot how much fun that machine was. The short gears mean I can click through 5th gear in my driveway. It's so light and easy to toss around. It makes me miss mine. However, I am glad to have something with more power. If I ever bought another 250EX/X I'd probably go with the newer X model so I could have the sport clutch and do some mods.
You sir are correct. Sold my predator 500 this morning and got a 250 ex this evening and it's not as fast but just as much fun. Plus it's a Honda so I'm good 2 go.
Pe Peroni lmao wannabe racers good trail riders are better than sheltered race children
I just got a 250x and i havent made any upgraded to it yet but its still one of the funnest quads ive ever owned or rid, so much power in turning and jumping it feels like im just soarin, so much fun
me too it’s a great machine
Keep er stock! No need upgrade. Maybe a pipe dwn rd. Keep it simple. Maintaining it should be priority! Order high quality engine oils like Maxima or Bel-Ray! Only full synthetic oils. Premium 91-93 fuels!
Great video! Very helpful. I just bought my wife one of these and the wheel spacers are going to be a must!
These guys at atv on demand are good. Great ideas and reviews
These upgrades are awesome! And those 250s are incredible, I got a brand new 2012 250trxex and I was 7 at the time I got it, that thing is still going, never rebuilt, completely stock except a new bumper we made because the other one was trashed and so we could mount a led light on and some tires. That bike has brought me through Tennessee mountains, Utah deserts, and Indiana’s stripper pits. When I’m talking mountains, I mean brimstone, windrock, royal blue, interlake, north Cumberland, and Hatfield McCoy, and more. The only thing I ever broke was the bumper and a ball joint fell out, a couple brake lights, and obviously replacing the bearings and brakes periodically. Can’t say enough about this thing, it’s invincible, it’s agile, it’s a beast.
Dude I love my 250. It's 20 yrs old and starts up first crank. After you widen the front suspension, the quad Handel's soo well. It's got all the upgrades in this video and the quad just feels right.
holy crud I've been waiting for like what feels like 10 years!!!!! thank you so much @atvondemand
honda life 250x sorry we left you hanging so long. Glad you liked it.
Same
nice upgrades,skid plates,and the wheel spacers next on the list for the Wife's machine.
Hey I know I'm late, but I love this! Some of my most treasured memories of riding were on an 87 250x. Cool to see people ripping on these toys!
That was a great bike I had one too! Getting a new '21 Honda 250X now for me & family. Prices aren't cheap @ $5k but take good care of it they last! Only live once God bless !
Would you recommend a 88 250x?
I watch your initial review of this too. Very fun videos. One of your bests!
Thank you! We really like this little quad. Makes it easy when you enjoy what you're testing.
@@ATVonDemand I just bought one yesterday. It's a 2017 that has clearly been rode just a few times.
Your videos are nothing more than commercials, but that's okay because they're so well done I don't mind watching your commercial
I love my 250x I’ve almost had it for a year and it’s a great quad
I still like the old honda 250x. they were like the modern day 450s
A.J.'s ATV Repair shop we think there's a market for such a machine as well. If Hannah could bring it back at a reasonable price.
yea. over the past couple of years the price has gone way up for them. bought mine for 900 4 years ago and now I wouldnt sell for under 2500. its a very desirable atv. mine is done out though. it has been built to run with 400s and 450s. thing is fast. id love to see you guys mod out one!
mines an 87. bored to a 330 and still starts first kick!
Same
I just posted a video of me turning my yard into a quad track! I am buying this and boy today! So excited!
I have a Honda 250TRX EX, it’s an amazing fourwheeler, my fam bought it in 2009. This year I really got into ridin, and I finally got it broke into. It used to top on in 4th at about 33, and 5th would top out at 40. Now today it tops out at 41 in 4th and 53 in 5th.
i580Chase I have went 50 mph on mine not even rev limiting
It's been a perfect beginner quad and now I'm up riding a polaris outlaw 525s and love it.
i guess im randomly asking but does any of you know a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot my login password. I love any tricks you can offer me!
@Kaysen Emanuel Instablaster ;)
The 250 doesn't feel like a 250 imo it feels like a 300-350 stock. Its so fun to throw around
Right it fast too
Im probably too big for one of these {6'1 200lb} but always thought by just adding bars and wheel spacers would be just fine. Its such a well built, lightweight reliable platform
Great video
Motley thank you
I built myself a Honda 250 ex for a purpose trail bike but I didn't do all the mods u guys did but mine runs like a dream
Now you need Elka shocks! Not cheap, but transforms the ride to a top performer!
Absolutely.
Bought an old Honda 250ex for $300 a few years ago that had been sitting under a guys porch for years. just needed it’s carb cleaned and it still runs like a dream to this day
It should run forever.
You stole that thing for 300
I saw that my spider grips got holes in them from sticker bushes but i still love the grips
this is great. thanks for sharing.
would love to see a testing of the 1.5 vs 2 inch wheel spacers
maybe durablue can help you guys with some parts for the test.
Really glad you enjoyed it. Perhaps that is a comparison we will visit in the future.
Like the upgrade
Thanks for the great video. B e safe :)
i got the competition series for my trx250x 2016 an put a 105 jet seems to run great back fires once in a while but like u said bigger pilot jet should help also
Glo Gang thanks for watching and for sharing your feedback.
I have a 2014 trx250x I might try some on the these mods on after I finish building my dirtbike... lol
Where did you get the flex bars wheel spacers and the thing where you put the key switch
This quad is probably my favorite trail rider I've been on. I'm never left behind, it hauls my 250lbs butt up hills and mountains, and it has probably the easiest reverse engagement I've used.
@@Brian-nu6wg Yes. I'm 6'4".
@@Brian-nu6wg This past October, my brother and I with some friends went to the Hetfield McCoy Trails in W.V. The 250 I speak of is my sister-in-law's. My brother and his friends were riding Razor turbo 4 seaters, and a Yz1000 utv or what ever it was. Now those were hard to hang with because there suspension is way better than a quads. I did hang with them though. One time I passed all 3 and stayed in the lead just messing around on a slight incline and some curves. It was a sneak attack so I already had the top end on them for that moment. We were mudding, climb black diamond hills which isn't allowed with 2 wheel drive, but what a thrill. I did feel beat up pretty goo by the second day because I was riding at 80% effort to hang with them. I never have to ride that hard with other quads. It's just a fun nimble ATV. Most quads have a faster top end speed. Acceleration is average to above average. Wheel base is shorter so the chances of whacking trees in the wooded trails is smaller. I have a banshee, cr125r, had a crf450r, rode raptors, and ds650's, but every time my brother unloads the 250 from the enclosed trailer, everyone laughs and asks if I'm really riding that. I say heck yeah, let's go!
@@Brian-nu6wg it’s great i’ve had mine for just over a year now i still love it
I have a brand spanking new 2020 trx250x I love it and I got a few up grades. The HMF Exhaust system and the jet kit. Nerf bars
Mike Brooks is the exhaust and jetting worth the upgrade? i’m thinking of getting one but i just haven’t committed yet
Array Blu yes it is because it’s open up more. I can feel the difference in the torch on it.
we installed the nerf bars ...easy install...problem is with shifting of ya have small feet your good ..adult shoes and or riding boots not so good..ya have to reposition the shifter lever.. to get under it or modify the hole shifter..And if ya ride a lot thru down Forest trash any stumps and branches ..sticks will try and get stuck thru it..we took them off..we ride swamp areas and logging areas...
sick
ya my 2014 does the same popping just got the carb cleaned pilot was plugged at other jetts it would pop while idling and have high idle. i dont have a jet kit i have a fmf slip on and ya it pops now still while slowing down but after the carb was cleaned started it up and it popped again but i think after drivin it a hour i cleaned out the jetts by ridin it and it stopped poppung. at least im not the only one even in this vid with the kit it still pops while decelerating it okay i can deal with it as long as it starts now without choke and my mechanic made the carb actually richer which is good maybe sometime ill mess with fuel screw not sure if that would help me or not.
What wheel spacer actually fits on this quad? Like what size is it?
Good vid, now have nerf bars and wheel spacers. Question, how did you mount the choke on the handlebars? Thanks and keep up the good work!
darthmurdoch we basically used a cable tie like a zip tie and used it to attach the choke cable to the other cables on the left side of the handlebar. It wasn't a perfect solution but it works okay. We usually grab the body of the choke and pull the plunger out. Using two hands works best.
The stock tires on the TRX250X throw rocks everywhere. Upgrade your tires
can you put links to the items that were showcased in this video
My son got the 2016 250X for his birthday. We added the nerf bars immediately and now that he's doing serious trail riding I want to add the skid plate. The Ricochet web site has plates for 93-09 and 2017-2018. Should I go with the 2017-18 plates or the one for the older 09 atv? Great video!!!
Michael Klappauf congratulations on getting your son into ATVs. The Ricochet skid plates will bolt up fine to your machine although you will have to do some minor trimming of the chassis skid plate were it wraps up behind the front bumper. It took us about 5 minutes with a rotary saw to trim the edges off a bit. Their skin plates are stout. We'd say it would be worth it. Yeah feel free to hit us back with any questions.
What is the top sped you are getting with all of the up grades?
What is the part from ROX that the key hole and the lights go into?
Finally it is about time
Kyler Yachimec so sorry it took so long. hit us back if you have any questions.
ATVonDemand sorry for maybe sounding rude just my little brother has this quad and I showed him this because we where going to do some upgrades
Kyler Yachimec didn't think you were being rude. Sorry we left you hanging so long. Hope this gives you guys some good ideas.
ATVonDemand alright sweet thank you
What plate is this? Is it the normal 250ex one or the one for years 17-18 250x? Also, is there a bolt that uses a spacer on the left side of the diff guard?
Nice review of good "value minded" part upgrades for the TRX250X. Looking to get new '21 model for my son. Wheel spacers are great to make the quad more stable etc. Will it keep up w/ my YFZ450X? ;) - Ohio
I highly doubt it will keep up with a yfz450x, as I own one. My best friend has a 250x and I'm honestly here looking for modding ideas for his quad.
I bought my son the 2020 trx250x will all these part describe on the video fit the newer trx250x.
Got the same nerf bars and same skid plate for mine and I had to get longer screws bc the nerf bars pushed the skid plate off the frame. Didn’t have to cut the bumper though
We didn't trim the bumper, we trimmed the skid plate. What year is your machine?
ATVonDemand I have a 2017. So what about your nerf bars and skid plate? I actually just got back from Lowe’s to get longer screws bc the u bolts on the nerf bars push the skid plate off the machine. Did yours do the same?
That 4 wheeler will last you years of fun as well we have an 04 250 ex and runs fine we are going to replace the piston because it's starting to burn oil but other than that no problems whatsoever
Brock Ziebart it seems these days people underestimate how much fun you can have on a simple reliable sport quad like this.
Can you provide us with links to these parts? Please and thank you.
If you guys still have this unit try an aftermarket cdi on it like an AMR or other brand. Have talked to a couple guys that have built 250exs for cross country type stuff and they swear by them. Most times cdi boxes are a waste but for some reason onthe 250x they are suppose to get some decent gains especially up top. Both parties said their top speed was in the high 50s after a pipe and cdi box....stock was around 52.
We do still have this unit around. We found a set of aftermarket A-Arms we would like to try over the winter. That might be a good time to install a new CDI. What is the benefit, a higher rev limit? It does kick in kind of early
@@ATVonDemand Yes 1000 more rpm but also increased timing as well. Last guy I spoke to said it picked up the throttle response as well....Im assuming due to the increase in timing. The extra topend must come from more rpm and the increased topend power from the full exhaust since you cant change the gearing with the shaft drive.
I have a honda 2002 250 ex.. can I change the plastics to a newer model?
Have you found a good pilot to put in yet ?
possibly a 2 inch lift with aftermarket wheels and tires and some other goodies
Derrick Kimsey why would we ever put a lift kit on a 2 wheel drive sport ATV?
hey nice, i like in wisconsin, do u know where i could pick up one?
are the 1.5" rear wheel spacers still made by durablue?
I have like an 03 (I forgot what year specifically but one of the yellow ones) but anyone else that has one of these also notice that you have to go onto reserve fuel even though when you look in the gas tank there’s like a half tank of fuel left. It gets kinda annoying because I’ll be out of fuel in the main but there’s still like 2 gallons in the reserve so I’m wondering if anyone knows what I could do to fix this up. But yes I have one of these and it’s some of the most fun on four wheels
If the gas drains that fast you might have a leak somewhere I can go all day on a full tank if gas without switching too reserve
I would consider racing one of these if they had a class of these size atvs I won half of my 46 wins on those size ATVs
We thought about setting one up for cross country racing just for fun. People used to race little atc200s and had a blast. Like you we wished it was some class for them.
ATVonDemand, Have you had any problems with the wheel spacers like wear and tear or the studs breaking?
We have been using it for trail riding without doing a lot of jumping and haven't had any issues.
where did you get the black rims
I am glad I watched this cause I want to get one and do some mods later on in its life
Ethan Bishop outdoors we're glad you watched it as well. We may have some more content coming on the 250X so stay tuned.
Me too hopefully by summer
Honda need to do a factory race version the 250, using more alloy parts and better shocks. Like what Can-Am do with the DS90 (the DS90x) power is not everything
I had always wanted a utility ATV and i finally after years of persuasion got an 03 rancher 350! Once i got it and rode it in the trails i realized that i really should’ve went with a smaller sport quad. So i have been looking at trx250’s as a potential quad i trade for
Hi there, I’m just wondering if I ride in Canada with dust and mud and in the winter season what jets should I run? I have the hmf basic kit so I wondering which one to run
Give a call to Duncan racing. As far as we know they have the most development on this engine. They should be able to help you with a good jetting setup.
I would love to see a build thread on the next build.
Landon M interesting. Where would you like to see such a thread? we are always interested in more viewer interaction.
ATVonDemand I think a thread of videos on installs. also for the next build it would be pretty cool if it wasn't just bolt on (pistons, cams, ECT)
Do you recommend other bars, without the flexx technology? less expensive as well
We work with Renthal on a number of projects. They make great products. We used the Flexx bars on the 250X to help make up for the suspensions lack of plushness although finding a bend of handlebar that's comfortable will improve your performance as a rider. Finding the correct bend will be a bigger deal than the brand you buy, especially on a recreation machine like the 250X/EX. I personally like a straighter bar as it gets my elbows up but its personal preference.
More Honda trx250 videos please
I have an ‘03 Honda 250ex and I was wondering if it would be ok to put 2.5 in wheel spacers in the front and 1.5 inch spacers in the back
Pardon me, we don't have the machine in front of us right now to measure. Is that going to make your front end wider than your back end? Adding wheel spacers at all will increase steering effort somewhat. Is the wider wheel spacer or more offset wheel you use the more it will increase steering effort. Having the front end front end wider than the back will further further increase steering effort. We hope this helps. Please set us back if you have any further questions.
Can you do a review of the 2000 Polaris trailblazer 250 please
Can they find one tho its 21yrs old. Its a good machine. Take good care of it.
Nice video who can I get to build my 250 same as this one in this video nice I luv it
I want those handle bars for my 1985 250sx
rusty nail they would make a nice addition. Order a set up.
Great video 😁🤘🏾 will this quad be fun to ride for me ? I’m 26 and my weight is 140 also iam beginner rider on quads so just trying to find the right size for me not trying to race just have fun with my family so they can ride also
If you can pick one up used at a low price it would probably be okay to learn on. If you have any Power Sports Experience, motorcycles, dirt bikes, Etc.the Raptor 700R has a very smooth forgiving power delivery although it is fast. One of the best choices might be a Honda 400EX vs Suzuki Z400 if you can find one at a reasonable price. Try to find something with a stock engine. Engines that have had Big Bore kits installed in them are often not nearly as reliable. I hope this helps and please feel free to hit us back with any follow-up questions you may have.
@@ATVonDemand thank you 🙏🤘🏾😁
is the spacer the same size all around? when im trying to buy it. they stating that its 1.5 front and 2.5 back. can you clarify this
Jason Cas absolutely. When we ordered the wheel spacers for this project, durablue asked us if we wanted to go with 1.5 inch wheel spacers front and 2.5 inch wheel spacers rear. We opted to go with 1.5 inch wheel spacers all the way around for two reasons. First, we wanted to maintain the same difference in width front and rear as stock, with the machine being 3in wider overall. The other reason we did not go with 2.5 inch wheel spacers in the rear is because we were concerned about the additional Leverage making the stock axial easier to bend. Two and a half inch wheel spacers would provide increase leverage over 1.5 inch wheel spacers and having the rear wheel sticking out further in the front made us a little concerned about snagging trees. If we wanted the back in more than 3 in wider we would consider going with durablue Eliminator axle for the 250X EX which is both wider and stronger than stock. If you have anymore questions feel free to have us back. Thanks for watching.
im back do you remember me the very nice one
Found it curious you guys didnt change the tires to a Holeshot type.
Typically we pick out modifications based upon need. We didn't really have an issue with the level of traction the stock tires provided. Frankly, we would be concerned that an aftermarket Tire could increase traction making the machine harder to break loose and slide. Secondly, some tires might increase rotating Mass. Not a big deal on a larger displacement machine but we were looking to increase acceleration not potentially further tax the engine. We're not saying there's no reason to switch out the tires or that you couldn't benefit from doing it with the Right Tires. For us, the stock tires just didn't present a real issue. We hope this helps satisfy your curiosity. Ask away if you have any further questions.
@@ATVonDemand Thanks for the response. I was more referring about going to a 20 inch instead of a 22 stock size to gain stability and maybe a lil bit more acceleration. I definately wouldnt wouldn't add a heavy 6 ply type to a machine like this. I really like this build. This woukd be a great quad for my son.
Doing similar bars right now. How did u remove the ignition?
I'm pretty sure it's in the video. If it's not, hit me back.
Will the 1.5” spacers work on a 2002 250ex?
Jim Silvestri yes. We are pretty sure the durably wheel spacers we ran will work on any year 250EX or new model 250x
Do you guys now if they sell a full set of nerdy bars not just the bottom ones ?
Not sure.
If you're willing to do some fab-ing then you can put 400ex a arms on a 250ex!
We're also pretty sure that American Star makes +2 chromoly arms for the 250X/EX with no fabrication needed.
@@ATVonDemand Ah, didn't know that. I've heard a lot of people say that the ASR arms joints were crap but that was when they were using heim joints but they've now switched to ball joints but no one has reviewed them recently. Have you had any experience with the ASR arms with ball joints?
Does anyone make aftermarket front bumpers & grab bar for this machine?
i currently have a front bumper from alba racing on my 19model
I may purchase a 2006 trx250ex. I am 250lbs 6,3 . Bike looks bone stock. Does anyone think it would hit 45mph? I’d be happy with my purchase if it can
I bought my 250 ex yesterday but need to replace the tusk nerf bars. Webbing do you sell the webbing separately ? Also im still waiting on a reply if you guys found the right pilot for the carb
Duncan Racing has a jet kit for the Honda 250X that has a new pilot and Main Jet that they developed for their exhaust. Our bet is that it would work very well with any aftermarket exhaust and have the proper pilot jet. We believe that Honda has gone to a leaner pilot jet over the years. We went up the number of sizes that Duncan Racing used to go up when they originally developed there kit a long time ago. On newer model machines like ours, we're pretty sure you have to go up a couple more sizes from stock, since stock is now apparently leaner. Rocky Mountain ATV is the main distributor for Tusk products. We would contact them and see if they will sell you a set of nets for your nerf bars. We do not sell products. We only do reviews. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to head us back.
@@ATVonDemand i just looked on site and ordered the nets i needed , just tryna figure out what pilot im going to need for my hmf upgrade
Gotta love all the good ol made in USA parts for the Japanese quad...
PlokTheMasterGamer unfortunately, there are no American-made quads. That being said the Japanese have been producing high-quality products for decades. We make mention of American made Parts when building ATVs to let readers know that the parts are not made in China. While there are some decent parts coming out of China there is also a lot of crap.
I want that
Where do you buy parts for this
Any one have a link for the wheel spacers
Link for the wheel spacers?
I have Nerf bars wheel spacers but how expensive was the whole hmf system??? and was it worth it?? I am always wanting more top end out of my 250
honda life 250x without the blackout finish in the red powder coat on the silencer the full system retails for $349. The jet kit is around twenty bucks. We will have the full list of parts prices and manufacturer links on our website tomorrow morning. the exhaust system will give you more mid to top-end acceleration but you won't gain much in the way of overall top speed you'll just reach it more quickly. the only way you will gain top speed on the 250EX or X is to add taller tires although it will detract from handling.
honda life 250x reviewing comments, I realized we forgot to answer the part about was it worth it? we would say yes, especially if you just stick with the exhaust without the Cosmetic upgrades. cosmetic upgrades are great but they don't make your machine faster. what the exhaust, rejetting, and ditching the air box lid it seems to rev faster especially from mid to top end. it also makes horsepower over a broader RPM range. with the stock exhaust and air box lid on power falls off much sooner. we're pretty sure you would notice the difference with this exhaust.
ATVonDemand 700xx
What nerf bars do you have?
i have a 2002 250ex and i dont have that much money to spend on it, do you have any suggestions on what i should do to it for low money?
What do you want to improve most about the machine?
@@ATVonDemand it would be nice to add hp or speed or something but im really just looking to make it anything but stock, anything that would improve the quad.
@@luuuke2484 in that case, we would add an aftermarket exhaust, ditch the airbox lid, and rejet. That would probably be our starting point.
what height did you do on the handlebars the low 68 mm or standard 92mm trying to order a set for my quad i want to keep it near stock from the factory bars. i am going to do the 2 inch risers to. i five foot five for my height
I can't recall which highth we used. With two inch risers I would believe it was a lower height. I would recommend checking with fasst company to see what they recommend for you. They are good with that setup stuff.
@@ATVonDemand i appreciate it
Looking at getting one of these for a street legal project
Very interesting. Keep us posted on how it goes.
@@ATVonDemand
Will do, i am pricing mods and such currently.
Meeting seller tomorrow.
Best mod for the 250x
Put a chain back on it Honda!!!
you should do a project with the trx250ex with gbc xc master tires
TripleThreatPZK if we were going to switch to different tires from GBC, we would probably go with the XC racers. They are a bit lighter and easier to break loose from our experience.
ATVonDemand makes sense on mine I was wondering which ones to use the racers or master tires
Glad we could help.
does the dash panel work with the stock handlebars?
I believe so. Double check with Rox Speed FX to be sure.
would you please do a Honda Recon project
Derrick Kimsey most of the parts on this machine would have a nearly identical effect on the Honda Recon. The Recon and the 250EX are nearly identical with the exception of tires bodystyling Etc.
Can someone please tell me if a silencer is a normal exhaust or something else?
The silencer refers to the back half of the exhaust or what companies might refer to as a slip on exhaust. It mostly refers to the part of the exhaust where the packing is which helps reduce sound. A full system includes the head pipe. Hope this helps.
Can you send the link of the nerf bars?
Go to Rocky Mountain ATV. Search trx 250x nerf bars
But a stage 3 cam and its a lot faster and don’t forget the racing carburetor racing air filter bigger jets and a rebuilt throttle
Wish somebody would make a big bore kit for these
If you're looking to get some more horsepower out of the 250X/EX, I'm pretty sure Duncan Racing has a motor package for them. I don't believe they make an exhaust for them anymore. We had good luck with the HMF unit that we tested.
Please help, my 07 trx250ex is flooding and gas is pouring out the float bowl and I can’t afford to buy a $150 oem carb and don’t trust myself to rebuild. Are Chinese carbs even worth it?
Your float is stuck take apart carb & clean the crap out of it & don't buy Chinese carbs
Can you guys do a review on the can am ds 250?
The ds250 is currently a 14 years old and up machine. We would like to review it but need to wait until more machines are available so we can perhaps do a comparison to other units in the class. Right now dealers are selling out of everything.
@@ATVonDemand i know it’s insane. this virus has it impossible to get a ds 250
Watching this in 2021 building a race quad
What are building it for?
can you help I’m kind of on a tight budget what would be the best to get for a 2005 Trx 250ex
To mount these nerf bars you must drill holes in the foot pegs
We did. It was no big deal.
@@ATVonDemand true I just didn't know that at first, just got done putting them on my GFs 250x & they look sweet. Gonna get her those skid plates to. Can you do some vids on the trx250r that would be cool
