I know this is an old post but you probably already figured this out but I snorkeled mine and you have to run the carburetor breather the break breather the differential breather and the carb overflow all the way up to the snorkel not just the two breathers.
To turn those tires better use a dyno jet kit and a hmf exhaust system.If you dont want the muffler to be loud the pipe itself comes with quiet core insert and you can take it out.A k&n air filter works good.Check out my vids if you dont mind.
Most of the pipes I used regular plumbing pipe glue with primer. I did use two rubber bellows to join some of the sections together. When you clamp the rubber bellows to the pipe it is water tight. I have it in a creek to about the gas tank and had not a drop of water inside the air box.

Dose anyone have a problem with a Honda recon 250 when u backup in water it stalls. Any ideas on what it could be ?
is already has trouble with the amount of compression being in the water but when you back up all that does is force water into the exhaust
HAve you got top speed with 25" tires?
What did u use to waterproof the tubes?

1.5 inch abs into the airbox?
Did you have to use after market jets
I did, but I do to remember what size I went up to.
can you tell me the exact rims you have? i have been looking for those kind for about a month.
They are ITP SS 112 wheels. I bought them as a kit from www.moto4less.com It used ITP mud lite tires with 25x8 in the front and 25x10 in the back.
thankss a lot man
Did you have to mess with the carb to get it to run good or no adjustment
Spencer Peters I did go up to a 110 main jet, that was the the only thing I changed.
Bob Lavoie where did you get the jet
I got mine from our local Honda dealer. You could likely get one on eBay as well.
I snorkel mine and it will sputter like it not getting Air
Kayd Roll you have to change the carb jet as stated in the video. The original carb jet is too lean once it’s snorkeled.
how did you get the vent hoses to run that far up?
you have to buy extra hose the size is 5/32 and conectors.
will it work for a 250 2wd recon?
Yes is will. The recon in this video is a 250 2wd. I dont think they ever made a recon any other way.
