    This 1999 Honda Recon Barn find is a hidden gem! Covered in thick barn dust, this ATV has been sitting untouched under a pole barn for its entire life. In this video, we'll show you how we clean it up, change the oil, and put on a new set of tires. If you're a fan of vintage ATVs, you won't want to miss this restoration project. Don't forget to subscribe for more exciting adventures in the shop!

    The statement "It's a Honda" says alot. Those things will run wounded for a long time and can be brought back from death with very little.

    Great video as always and I'll definitely say that I'm with @darrenwalker2365 on the 200sx...
    The simpler it is the easier it is to keep up on it. Found a nice rider my buddy was selling so it was a no brainer to snatch it and share the same joys i had on my brothers when i was a kid.
    Took me a few yrs to find solid racks and a hitch for it but now they're definitely worth their weight in gold for this lil yard mule i built and she's a beauty with the green fenders and black cowl like those Recons and Foremans.
    Happy Holidays and thanks for all the tips you share

    I grew up riding a 250 Timberwolve. Loved how basic and durable it was. Bought a new Honda recon last year and couldn't be happier

    • @mrcbuilds
      @mrcbuilds  9 місяців тому +3

      Your right the simplicity of them make them great, even compare to modern Honda atvs these are the best. Fuel pumps, fuel injections and computers have over complicated atvs.

      Honda really should have 4×4 option on the recon they would sell like hotcakes. I just got a 24 rancher and that's the only reason I got it over the recon. The recon is the closest to the old 300's and that's what I was looking for but they don't come 4×4 so had to go bigger.

    Nice machines, we get them in all the time at the shop. Might be the most popular 2wd utility machines in the mud and snow belt. Harvey seems to be doing pretty well, and hard at work on my Warrior. In the meantime I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of my "new" 3 wheeler, which turned out to be a DR225 and not a DX225. The difference between them is the seat on the DX has a latch and the DR is bolted to the fenders so the seat that I had in stock will not go on in 5 seconds so t will have to wait till I swap out covers from one seat to another. No more hardtail 3 wheelers in my fleet. Are you still accepting pics for "what are you riding"? If so, when Harvey gets time I'll have him send you some pics, take care and keep busy.

      @@mrcbuilds dang, I just finished a 185s build.. used a few of your builds to get er done.. 185s on a Yamaha blaster frame. A quick hone with new rings, new valves, valve springs, valve seals, resurfaced the head, ported the intake, ported polished the exhaust, 200x cam, crf 230 exhaust, new clutches, modified the shift star, rounded sanded polished, so it would shift easier ( hope I didnt go to far). Did that mod because the engine placement on the blaster frame was far up to have more front end weight, that made the shifter too far, so I shorted it, added another peg to the balster peg, all in oder to make your foot reach the shifter, with it being like 4 in long, was hard to shift it.. I'll let you know after the holidays, if it runs lol, how it runs, and if my shifting rig worked.. thanks for the videos
