Rode my first 350x today

[traxxasx]

Went to go check out a 350x today, pretty goos shape, all origanal besides rims. Even has title and toolbox with tools. I rode it up and down the street once dident want the old man to think i was here to mess it up. It was pretty fast but not to fast, my first time ever seeing one or ridin one though. Its for sale heres the link. A bit pricy i think.... http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/mcy/198084840.html He said its all origanal down to the chain and sprockets.

Ohh yea and tommrow im going to check out this bad boy R hopefully i get to take it for a spin. http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/mcy/198672943.html

Are you out tire kicking???????

keep in mind on the R that at .120" over that cylinder is on its last bore size.

go buy that x for the speedo alone...it is a little steep, but resel that speedo with gearbox and youll be down to a 1500 bike, which it looks like its well worth

I remember the 1st one i ever rode.. my brother's. I was barely in Jr. High but i rode it around the yard. About 8 years after that I bought an '85.. then i sold it.. like an idiot, to get married. Then about year and a half ago i bought another '85.. and this one isn't leaving my site.

nicer than my 86 was, and I paid $2000 for that......

Rear tread and rims are not origional.......

And yes the R is on the last bore, but I bet it's fast, well for a little while, my old one was 80 over when I got it.......

yeah, the X's are pretty fun, may not be as fast as an R but i would take one over an R anyday, that 4stroke power and reliablity. and the way mines geared, its perfect for around here.

[gravelord]

that 250r is AWESOME. id get that!!! who cares about it being bored out to the last bore, get a big bore kit :-D

[the great gazoo]

I'm with DeePa, get that X before some------ooops! It's GONE. Too late.

[BigGreenMachine]

Kind of a cheap way to get a ride on an X don't you think?

Your words were all exatcly in my head when i aw pictures. I knew i could make way more money off it, but when i went to go see its not even a hondaline tach is like some little silver on thats not electric and goes uo to 45, so i was like never mind. Also its my freind thats looking to buy them im just checking them out for him. Hey thanks allot guys on the last bore heads up, i wouldent had known and im sure the guy wont tell me.

[Tri-ZNate]

for $1250 grab that R, EXTREMELY cheap for that nice of a water cooler

No were not going around looking for bike trikes and ect. to just ride. I was actually test riding it to check it out. Also i wish i could pick up that R but i dont have near as that much money for a trike, need car first. Im checking them out for my freind, so he can get somthing so we can go ride.


Aslo how long does a bore usally last? So if my freind were to get this (r) and ride it everyother weekend how long would it last till it would need a new cyclinder?

[85 250sx]

theres alot of variables involved in how long it will last. that guy might have been riding in on the last bore for the last 5 years and it might already need another bore or he might have bored it last month and only ridden it once or twice since then. if you dont ride that often a bore could last you several years but if you ride realy hard everyday you might need a rebuild after a year.

Hey thanks i was just looking in gerneral how long a bore will last because i wouldent want my freind to buy a bike that needs a new cylinder after 6months or so. He wont be riding hard and not even close to everyday maybe like once a month a good ride in, and somtimes everyother day just putt around.
