i am not sure it is all stock though. i'll check into it. on the thing about the exhaust, i am thinking about a big gun full pipe or a DMC alien.

my buddies rancher said 54...we were right next to eachoter..im guessing it was more like 51-52

theres no way a stock 250 can go 55. the 300ex goes 57.

yes i hit the rev limiter on the 250 at around 40-45! i was riding nexyt to my dad on his motorcycle and i hit it and scared the sh*t outta me...so im pretty sure the 250 cannot do 55

The top speeds always change in ATV Action but I think it was something like 250ex- 51 mph, 300ex- 54 mph.

This is out of a mag.

what size tires are you running. i find that hard to believe since a 250ex will do barely 50 stock.

then i am positive your full of it, there is no way in hell a piped 250ex will do 60. a pipe will wake it up but not that much. id say it will go about 54 TOPS bud.

Ok "bud", I said that I was beside my friends truck, his truck is old, speedometers arnt exactly right. Personally I don't really care how fast it goes, I was just stateing that's what his truck had me at...

you are the WORST liar ever. a stock 250ex does 50 with a very light rider on it. and all you have done to yours is a filter and a jet kit? the only way a 250ex will hit is if it has 26 inch rear wheels on it. and for the record a 250ex WILL NOT beat a 300ex in a drag race. i raced about 4 or 5 REALLY FAT PEOPLE on 300exs and they got me every time, both stock. you honestly must be 10 years old to think that your 250 is capable of 60 mph. the only way your 250 beat the 300 is if he was a terrible rider and didnt know he had 5 gears. im not bashing a 250, i rode one for 3 and a half years, i know the bike very well and know that it will not hit 60 mph unless its in the bed of a truck.

The 250's do like 50!

07-22-2005, 11:37 AM
I am yet to get a good reading of my 300ex but I feel fairley confident that it would take a 250. Isn't the only way to make the 250 hit a higher top speed by changing the tire size. All these mods shouldn't make them have a higher top speed it should just get it there faster. The motor will only rev so high then it hits the limiter.

07-22-2005, 05:42 PM
i added a few mods to mine, jet kit, exhaust, air filter, nerfbars, wheel spacers, handlebars :macho

DaveEX7
07-22-2005, 08:36 PM
My old 250 did (at the most, on a good day) 60mph

I had, full exhaust, custom porting, filter, jetkit, piston, valve job, rings, gaskets, ran 93 octane and 20 inch tires

Nobodys 250 will go faster then what mine did.... I had the most engine work possible and kept it in great condition. So people saying that their 250 does 60 with a pipe and jetkit are full of sh*t.

a stock 250ex: 50 mph
your 250ex: 50mph
a 250ex with every mod aviailable for it: 50mph

you cant change the gearing - the only thing you can do is put 20'' rear tires on it and then it will lose top speed :chinese:

07-24-2005, 07:29 PM
except if you put larger tires on it and a new rev limiter. I have a trail tech speedometer and the fastest I've gotten was 50.7 That was once wide open in a corn field. I still can't believe I hit it because I have never after that again. I have a k@n and power lid. It also matters how much air is in your tires. I had about 5 ibs. when I hit 50. You are full of it if you think it will do anything past 52.

finally somebody that speaks the truth around here!! you can throw some 24 inch tires on it but they will hit the heal guards:devil: if you buy the bore kit for it, make it a real 250 youll gain a little speed but not enough speed to brag about.

07-24-2005, 09:13 PM
well the top speed of your 250 doesnt matter. So for all you people who think you can woop everyone cause of your huge motor that puts you at 80 your full of it. Cause on a MX track or a tight trail youll never get past 40!

blasteracer07
07-24-2005, 10:17 PM

Sorry to tell you, but blasters do not do 60, though they will still beat a 250. It's the truth thats why i'm saying it.

you must ride trails very slow to not get past 40? alot of the trails i ride i get up pretty high in 4th gear. on my old 250 i would max it out in 5th gear. and on an mx track there are alot of straights on most tracks where you can get going pretty fast.

any way, if you were to ride your 250 with people that really know how to ride, on oh lets say an mx track or a trail, you wouldnt be able to keep up with them because it lacks the power and acceleration of bigger bore bikes, not to mention the suspension which would buck you on an mx track. the only thing i agree with what you said is that top speed doesnt matter in most cases..

I have 20's on my 250 and I'm lucky if it hits 50. I bounce it off the rev limiter all the time...:mad:

It's quick though. Dragged a piped 300EX and whooped his *** until I got to 5th gear... then he returned the favor... lol.

Still love the EX for a trail bike, very hard to beat for that. Just sure isn't a speed demon...:p

ok whoever said that there blaster does 55 no throthle like 4 gear , u are so full of **** its funny. and whoever said that there 250ex does 52 at the most or whatever is the only person in here who knows what they are talking about . If your blaster does 55 in 4th gear no throtle then my dads 450r does 100 at an idle ...:o

A 250 will hit about 50 MPH (ive raced them with all the bikes below over the years).

A stock Blaster hits about 57MPH (I have one).

A stock Warrior hits about 61 MPH (I have one).

A stock 400EX hits about 65 MPH (I have one).

In the top end a blaster walks from a 250 (and can beat its *** pretty much all around), a warrior will walk from the blaster, and the EX will walk from the warrior. Then some where in between the blaster and the 250 is the 300EX.

All these runs were done on a straight paved road with a Toyota Camry Speedo as a guide during every day messing around. In the dirt with wheel spin I would imagine a decrease in top speed would be feasible and my personal discovered results on the road would be slightly off.

does a 250 x have the same top speed as the 300

Tri-valleyracin
08-25-2005, 02:08 PM
the 250x is prolly around the same top speed as a 300ex but a 250ex only will make maybe 50. now with aftermarket parts u can make it faster but a moded 300ex or 250x will walk all over it.and if that blaster hit 55 in 4th with hardly any gas it has to be moded out like crazy. but stock ur prolly goin to hit that in 6th taped.

the only difference most people see is the kickstart and electric start.
-The 300ex has 281cc's and the 250x has i think 241cc's.
-Plus the stroke is different, even though the engine may look the same to most any retard who has no concept between a 250 and a 300:huh
