Hi
I just got a '89 Honda Fourtax 300. It had been sitting for a WHILE, it was my Dads. I cleaned the carb and tank out, aired up the tires, and it fired right up. It runs great, but looks a little "rough". So, I would like to find an "Owners Group" (if this is not the best one for me) to help/guide me through fixing it up. Gonna need a couple of odd parts here and there, and a goodly amount of advise also, I presume. :D Maybe download a Manual, find some Do-It-Yourself Mods...you know.

Any help, much appreciated

Might I suggest posting this in the trx300 forum section also, im sur epeople can help your here but most people have the 250r, not the 300ex which im assuming is the fourtrax 300.

1989 TRX 300 is a utility. But if its a 1989 300 ex I will pay top dollar for it.

I knew a guy who had one of those. It would go anywhere.

93 is the first year for the 300ex.

Here is what he is talking about. I'll have to find the photos I have of myself and my brother thrashing on ours back in 1989.

Here is your manual. It is the 10th book down.

The whole point behind this comment was that I KNOW that there is not a 1989 300ex like someone mentioned that it probally was. Calm down everyone.
