TRX250r vs LT250r?

[300exPat]

hey guys I really need a faster quad to kill my friends with. the lowest cc quads they have are a warrior and blaster, the rest are 400ex's, z400's, predators, 450r's and yfz450's. i can keep up with most of the bigger but i can never take them in a race or anything. i was thinking about buyin a older quad that i could maybe get for the same price as my 03 300ex, i cant spend anything more because all my money is going into my mustang.

but anyway, whats the difference between a lt and trx?? besides companies is the trx that much faster?? any disadvantages or advantages?? besides it being a 2 stroke and not having reverse...

maybe i could find a older used 400??

any input would be great, thanks

stock vs stock the lt is faster...the trx handles better;)

there is a bunch of differences, and for them being older they will need rebuilt to keep up with a new 450. also the new 450's are as fast if not faster then a modded 250. why not get a banshee if your just wanting to go in a straight line? is all you care about is having bragging rights on being who is faster?

i dont want to go in a straight line.... im talking about woods/jumps/track/road and everywhere we race, im kinda learning towards the 400 cuz i think itll last longer and will take longer to need a rebuild

THAT SAYS IT ALL!!!!!!!!!


id rather have the trx

[Scott-300ex]

if your racin woods and everything get a trx


and practice, a guy with a 300ex could beat a yfz and 450r in the woods


PRACTICE MAN

have fun and good luck

[Scott-300ex]

if your runnin in the woods and everything you should get the trx

and practice a lot, a guy with a 300ex could take a yfz and a 450r in the trails and stuff, its all the rider, if i got a bike that will do 100mph it ain't ganna matter if i can't control it in the woods or on the track


PRACTICE IT UP MAN

good luck and have fun

[Scott-300ex]

oh and what kind of mustang you got


and what ya doin to it eh?

[Bender]

Most pro riders would still be running a 250R if they could. The quadracers are fun, but when the R came out they almost completly dissappeared from racing, whats that tell you? A 250R in good shape and well equipped is still able topple any compettion from 4 or 2 stroke.

yeah i know lol, ive smoked all my friends in the woods, im seriously the better out of all of us in the woods but id like to have the advantage of a little more speed if ya know what i mean..

i think im gonna move away from the 2 strokes because i need to stop spending money and im goin to have to get a rebuild, with a 4 stroke i can do all the simple maintance like valve adjustment my self

its a 94 gt, swapping it from aode to manual + putting in a cobra engine

a stock 250 cannot hang with the new 450's in engine performance, not even lightly modded. get a cannondale, they're relatively cheap, run great, handle great, but do require maitenance and make sure you know the facts when looking at one. www.cannondaleriders.com

[Scott-300ex]

yeah, once you got the skill for riding, upgrade bikes like you pretty much said


sounds like a cool mustang project

and yeah, man, sticks are the $hit!:D

Who runs a stock 250R?

Get a 250R and use the extra mony that would have been spent on a thumpa to make it ride better and go FASTER. Or you can try to find a built 250R in the $4k~$5k range.
