Picked this jem up 2 nights ago for $800. Talked the guy down from $1,000. It also came with 3 extra sets of rims and a set of ohtsu tires. She's a little rough around the edges but the motor is real tight and runs good. It's got a slight oil leak from the oil filter cover, broken stud for the header pipe, front fender needs replaced along with the front sprocket and rear caliper neads to be rebuilt. Also going to need a muffler and carrier bearings in the near future. Overall I'm really happy with the buy and can't wait to get her fixed up and hit the trails. Let me know what you think.

looking at the pic raises a question...why does the 350x have 2 exhaust ports instead of 1 larger port?

because they have dual exhaust valves instead of a single

Yeah, they're set up with 4 valves kind of like a car with 4 valves to each cylinder. It's got 2 for the intake and 2 for the exhaust- one pipe to each exhaust valve. By the way....who is Clark?? Think you got the wrong guy here, my name is Brian.

You take that pic in a museum or something? She is a beaut!
A little update on the 350, she's been running real good but had the dreaded yet notorious seized up and broken header studs. After purchasing a full cobra exhaust i found it completely necessary to replace the header studs. I got in contact with dirtcrasher here on the forums and he is going to replace them for me. Currently I have the motor out, head cover off, and now can't get one of the head bolts to break free. After putting some air to it she decided to round the corners off the bolt head. Now I've got to pick up an easy out set of my own since I won't be back to use my Dads until Saturday and I'm too anxious to wait until then. Unfortunately not everything can always go as smoothly as we would like.
