250r trade

[beags86]

thinking about trading my 250r off for another 400ex,
so i don't have to mix gas, and can buy a lower octane on the trail (if i have to)and not worry about it

and maybe get a 400 with reverse

anyone interested?

Cant believe this thread lol. Good luck on finding somebody to trade you I have 3 250r's and a banshee i know it can be a pain for maintenence and the requirement of highgrade gas. I honestly dont think you would be happy downgrading to a 400ex no offense. I like my ex but if i was you since you are wanting to trade why not trade for a 450r. Again i say goodluck im sure alot of owners would trade you straight up.

if i could trade for a 450r i would no doubt, and i love my r but i really need something that i can put a lower octane in am not worry about it, and my 400 gets double if not more the fuel milage then the r does, so that means i have to stop twice as many time to ride, pain in the *** when you want to ride 150 -200 miles a day then theres the mixing to boot... right now i just really want another 4 stroke for the kind of rideing, then within the next yr or so i am going to build another 250r.

93. some of the gas stations off the trail don't carry it, and i don't believe in octane boosters

lol you have to run that in the 400ex too. if you want to bog and go slow go ahead and run something less but theres a reason for the manual requiring what 91?

[MyKe2g3]

Yea but what hes talking bout is that some places dont have highgrade gas and you can get by sometimes with midgrade in the 400ex because its not mixed. 2 strokes ping real bad and can foul plugs real easy. Sometimes ive got bad gas and fouled a few before it happens.

i'm to clear this up once and for all!!!

i run 93 in my quads when i have the chance. but when you go out on a 200 plus mile trail sometimes you can not buy a high grade of gasoline.

can you run 87 in a 400ex? yes you can i have had to do it before

it seams like you think that a higher grade a gasoline makes you go faster.. this is not true, The octane number of gasoline is a measure of its resistance to knock.
so there forth the higher the number means theres more resistance to premature ignition and/or detonation.
this is why you run higher octane in a high compression engine.

i am unsure why you seam to think a lower grade would make you quad "bog" it's not true - so i am not going to touch that one.

and lastly. major manufacturers (exp. ford, chevy, dodge, honda, kawasaki , suzuki, yamaha) would never build any engine that couldn't operate, on the bare minimum of octane available in this country. while some things may ask for a requirement of high grade gas that doesn't mean you can't put a lower grade in them.
let take a turbocharged car for example- due to the fact it a turbo'ed car. the maker may say it needs 93 due the fact it's pushing say 5-7psi with the turbo. now due to this fact the car would need a higher grade due to the increased cylinder pressures,to reduce the chance of detonation. but when the car maker built that car they made sure it would run on a lower octane without detonation. they do this so some body that doesn't know better doesn't blow the engine and go back on the car maker. - so to sum it up. a manufacturer wouldn't build an engine the average joe could blow up because there to many people that would. and a company wouldn't be able to replace an engine every time somebody didn't read the owners manual

this is not open to debate. i don't care if you think i am wrong. i know engines i prob have built more then most people have even had. so i won't be replying anymore about this subject matter. and this thread is not about what gas i choose to put in MY quad. and why i choose to buy, sell, or trade my things. so unless you want to know something about the R or want to trade me,

QUIT HIJACKING MY TREAD

thank you,
beags
