    86 250trx fourstroke any good?

    Correct me if I am wrong, but isnt the 86trx250 the same motor and drivetrain as the big red? I have a chance to pick one up that runs good, headlight works, and has good tires for $100. The only thing is the brakes need some work. Sight unseen it still sounds like a good deal, I would would prolly convert it over to a snow plow for the winter, dont know how well it would work being two wheel drive and all. Has anyone ever owned one of these?

    I believe a friend of mine had a TRX250, and it was a kickstart. Did the Big Reds have a kickstart?

    P.S. I'm sure it will work pretty good as a snow-plow if you stick some 13" wide by 25" tall tires on the back and stud them. Carlisle Strykers is what my friend had on the back of his.
