Honda 250r vs Honda 350x 3 wheelers

[MrJuliesguy]

I have a 350x because I like to ride...my friend has a 250r because he likes to look at all the parts scattered around his garage that were once the top end.

1986 Honda ATC 250R.... STILL the sexiest most beautiful vehicle ever produced. The 350X ain't bad either. Grew up riding these legends, and miss them dearly....these video's always put a huge smile on my face and provide magical nostalgia.

2 LEGEND machines! Now, I had a brand new 86 ATC250R in late 1986. Owned it 7yrs. Stock premix recommendation was 20:1. I would NEVER run it leaner than 32:1. Get someone that's experienced jetting carbs . Get in on a dyno for best tuning. Take care that machine!

Hear the ping, smell the smoke, you just got passed by a 2 stroke.

He said “it’s smoking pretty bad huh” NO DUH ITS A 2 STROKE 😂

This is hilarious! When i was 9 my dad got one and i was immediately in the front yard full wood on 2 wheels... No helmet, no nothing... tshirt, sneakers, and shorts...

I've owned many atc 250r. Even my bone stock 84 would smoke my friends 350x. The water cooled 85-86 250r, in completely stock form, would crush even a modded boat anchor 350x all day everyday

This is a trip to the past!! Ive not seen either for a very very long time.

250🚀.. Is the best 3 wheeler ever made ( hands down).. Way ahead of its time . Spent many hours ripping on one..

[atcxfanatic]

This video brings back lots of good memories of the 3-wheeler days

If you wanna know a secret. Basically the 250r is race ready from factory. You can adj carb jetting if you install a pipe & silencer. Mine was bone stock except handle bars grips and sprocket and chain. I would whip banshees that were modded like no tomorrow.

building a 200x, with 350 suspension and stuffing an xr650r engine her. going to make it look factory as possible. Talk about a rocket ship!

[davida]

The 350X was one of the best machines Honda ever built. So was the 250R lol

[markbartlett]

I never got hurt on them and i started young when they came out. I was eight when i first rode one

I live in NM and used to do 2 strokes ran 32-1 and sometimes 28-1 in summer put one size jet larger than stock and would drip oil out tailpipe and never foul a plug and ran like a champ and only had to do a top end once and was due to a blown head gasket and ran out of coolant. what kills 2 strokes is running lean and or lack of lube. Just remember thats what lubes rings and rod and crank. And by the way good video. I love my 3 wheelers. all 3 of mine now are 4 strokes.

I had a 250R (83 air cooled model) and was always disappointed how it ran at part throttle. I came to the conclusion that the needle has worn out the jet. I hammered the jet down and redrilled it to what I thought was proper size. That thing ran fantastic at part throttle. Problem was that it only lasted 2 miles before the piston seized in the cylinder. Got another pistor and cylinder and went back to stock with jet size etc. I came to the conclusion that the 2 stroke was tuned like a cammed up engine. Only worked at full throttle when the pipe got warm enough to get the scavenging effect. I would much have preferred the 350.

[geneabrego]

Just as expected, the 250r comes out on top

[adamt]

That's a good matchup the 350 4-stroke versus 250 2-stroke. And of course the two stroker won! I miss my cr500r but the neighborhood and the cops don't miss it at all. 😂

[mrczz]

2 stroke! Wild. Sold my 2017 kx100 and miss it already. Time to get a quad!!!
