Quad problems

[tosiek]

So i have an 87' honda trx250x that "was" in great condition considering the age and the amount of abuse its been through. Never had any problems at all untill recently and it looks like now i have to rebuild the top end of the engine. And since its gonna cost me a pretty penny to do in a shop i opted to do it myself on my own time. Im in no rush since its not my main quad but it would be great to get it fixed.

Im actually thinking of throwing a newer 300ex engine inside since its pretty much a perfect swap but i can't find any in good shape.

Anyone with any experience on motorcycle/quad engine rebuilds here? got a bunch of questions that need answering before i start to do anything.

Have you looked on ebay for complete motors?

yeah i checked. Only thing they have on there is a 400ex for 1400 or so. its crazy. And a used 250x for 400$. Which isn;t bad but i don't know how "used" it is.

Your the best. I just need to figure out how much work is needed to match the mounting screws =0)
