Got one of the "original" 4x4's. Been picking up things on ebay over the past couple years. I've gotten handguards, HL guards, and official Suzuki whip for it. I found a pretty mint black seat and a set of Maier blue rear fenders on clearence. I have a set of Moose front half shafts to mount on it too.

I'd like to find a nice new set of front blue fenders and resticker it. Also, the speedo doesn't work, so I'd like to figure that one out too. Go figure, the only ATV I own that came STOCK with a speedo doesn't work! hahaha

It's a pretty unique lil 4x4.... has shift on the fly and independent rear suspension. The motor in it's pretty fresh as the previous owner put the oil filter in backwards and "done blown 'er up" Paid ~$800 for it to be repaired at Arkport Suzuki. Then a few months before I bought it, they dropped another $400+ at Avon Cycle Joint in a new CDI and ignition issues. Bryan.... you ever wrench on this? hehehehe How's the parting going on that one you have over there at the Joint?

Oh... the girl likes it too... so I guess I better keep it!

Yeah... I know.... I hated taking her out on the "golf cart". But we didn't have much time to head down to the waterfalls... too much time shooting skeet! The water was high, and the Big Red had the snow plow on it yet, so I fired up the Suzuki. Probably the longest ride I've had on it in 2 years!

Her brothers both race Yamaha quads and MX Bikes. So I think over Easter I'll finish up that 225DX out to Swinehart's and make that trike officially "hers".

I have had three of those in the past, with all the gear combinations, I had more fun trying to get it stuck, just to see if I could get out of it.:lol: Great bikes just to play around on.

i had a 1986 and sold it to my dad with 1200 miles on it, it was a tank, topped out at 45 mph, and if you diff-locked the front it would only go straight, you cant stick them, for 250cc's they are horses!!

i noticed your racks edges dont fold down, mine did, and the lt4wd was first 4x4, it came out before the trx350 in 1986
