Body and Controls / What seat is this and what it's value?

« on: August 02, 2016, 11:10:23 AM »

I'd like to sell it, unless there are blue seat covers available for this design. If not, what its value? It's in good condition, no rips. Very comfortable! I'd just prefer a blue seat on this (The gas tank cover is darker, the lighting of the image just enhanced it).

Lounge / Why don't you ever see 250r's out on the track?

I've thought of doing a few local practices for the fun of it! However, I've noticed that hardly any 250r's are seen out there.. Whats up with that?

Engine and Bottom End / Abnormal bogging?

Plug wasn't fouled, but I did replace it. Still boggs and dies down out of random.

Just recently purchased a rather "clean" 89 TRX 250r that runs and sounds just as it should! Got to ride it for the first time this weekend, and had absolutely no problem for the first 2 hours. The throttle responded with no delay, quick to rev, sounded crispy and hit powerband like nothing. Then, out in the pit, it just bogged down and died with no given warning. I thought it blew up! Let it sit for a few seconds, and it started first kick. Compression was still the same. It'd ride around just idling, but if you got on the throttle and asked for more of it it'd just bog down and die. However, it'd start right up like nothing happened after you let it sit. It's like it looses spark, or it isn't receiving fuel. Possibly an electrical or fuel problem? Going to clean out the carb, changed the plug, then having a friend of mine (Who restores 250r's-owns 5) look at it. I've been told it might have something to do with the coil, or possibly needs a new stator? Not really familiar with these quads. Probably will clean out the fuel filter, vent and so on. Any suggestions or thoughts are appreciated!
