Hi guys just got myself this old baby and thought i'd share her with you guys and see what you think. The one thing I must note is that the DG exhaust on it is bloody loud as they come so wouldn't mind changing that out possibly other than that she goes good and gets sideways with the tires it's running atm also haha. Cheers

Yeah that sure is a clean 250x. But street tires? I would say it was being raced in TT races but its not low enough and i dont see any sway bar mounts.

To be honest I'm not sure what it was setup for originally but the guy I bought it off used to take it bush now and then as he had a yz450f and a ktm525 also to play with. It's got a good strong motor though when I first had a ride of it I was shocked because I'm used to being on 2 wheels and the only quad I had ridden before hand was a suzuki ltz90 haha. What did you mean by sway bar mounts ? Where would they be,, sorry newbie question I know.

Sway bars are used in TT racing. They mount from the frame to the a-arms to stiffen the suspension. Just like a sway bar in a van or truck or car does. 99% of the time when a quad was raced in TT i see where the sway bar mounted or they even sometimes will leave the clamps on the arms or frame. No such thing as a noobie question on this forum lol

Good spotting, yes they are and I have never heard of them before today are they any good??
I'm not sure if there any good, I was gonna ask you! I've been wanting a set, for when I ride a lot of tarmac. I've read they still give off road traction, but don't see how.

Oh I just meant if they were known as good quality or not lol and the traction off road is pretty minimal really, the thing steps out so easily so hill climbs would be a bad idea I think, will let you know after tomorrows outing :grin..
