New arrival to the herd , 1992 TRX300FW Blue , 317 kit sleeve and piston , 350 carb Rick's CDI , 54% gear reduction , 27 " Swamp Lites , SS rims , 250 rear end , hub paddles , it is a little rough , but it has a lot of stuff in it , I think I can work with it , got it for $1,500 , pick it up Thursday or Friday ---- oh and it comes with an extra blue gas tank and two more engine side covers freshly powered coated white

First thing on my list to do is a Open Country 4x2 Kick Out Kit and modified the front drive shaft as this is a 1st generation

A couple more pics , this is by far the most I ever paid for a atv , usually I deal with basket cases , but it is also the first one out of many that was ridable when I got it , and I plan on riding it this weekend ---------- somethings I didn't mention that it has in it , the Weber cam , valve work , the jug has been sleeved with a 350 Rancher sleeve and piston , and it is running a 350 carb re-jetted , it has 3 led lights , the box on the front rack is a MP3 player and it is loud and clear ----on the down side is all the brakes are deleted and the rear has to stay deleted to run the paddles , will see how that works out, they may be taken off got some prices and I can get the Highlifter front disc kit for $329 and the Open Country kick out for $300 both with free shipping and I have a X3 Superwinch sitting around , just need a plate and solenoid , the seat looks great and the blue triangle side kick starter cover is with it just not on in the pic

I think I can sell the extra blue tank , $100 for the tank and $50 for the blue stock paint , hehe , the power coated side covers look great , but I am not really a fan , think it would hold the heat ,I doubt I would put them on , so if I can get $100 for them , then the bike would have cost $1,250 , figure I need about $800 to make it right , front disc , kick out , 24 inch led light bar for the front and move the 6 inch to the rear , winch plate , drink holder hehe , so for $2,050 and some love and I think it will be a bad mudder -----

I hope it's the machine it appears to be Fish, it does sound like a good mudder for sure.

I am stoked Sam !!!! ----- thanks again for giving me the nudge , it was you and the blue pushed me thru ---- going to be eating burgers for a while , if you catch my drift !!!
No problem, the blue 300's are nice, plus, that one was worth every penny with all the mods, bits and pieces

Thanks, side covers I mean the right cover over the clutches and the left cover over the flywheel , the 4x2 I can get from my buddy who is a dealer and giving it to me $69 off and he gets free shipping , he also can do $320 on the HighLifter front disc kit , I can get a SuperATV kit for $200 and have 6 of them now with no problems , but I am leaning towards trying the HighLifter kit this time , the highlifter is $369 list , but I am a little confussed right now , he told me he could get the 1992 disc kit , but when I searched for the Highlifter kit I found 93-2000 , I have never done the conversion on a 1st gen 4x4 before , I know when I tried to do the 1st gen 2wd 300's the pattern for the spindle to caliper bracket was different and needed new plates to be made , so I don't know what is going to happen with this92 4x4 yet --I am about to head over there now

Thanks Manny

Thanks SS420 , this is my first blue one , you don't see too many blue ones around here ------- I think the way it goes is there were two blues in the USA over the years , light and dark , also there was a blue only in Canada that was called EGG Shell Blue

It's such a nice color, definitely the first I've seen!
Sounds like you're adding to a collection? What else you do you have for quads?
