    Question Recon 250

    I have a 2002 Recon 250. what kinds of cheap/free modifications can I do to it to either:

    A: Increase power/ speed

    B: Increase handling.

    I already have a K&N airfilter . Any input would be apreciated. Thanks!

    Hey Sean0013 do you like that K&N air filter? Did it increase your power? Thanks

    you could jet it and get a little more power. you could get a pipe to.

    The K&N filter works pretty good. It gives the quad a little more horsepower than stock. I have no complaints with it's filtering capabilities. It seems to stop dust and other small particles just fine. I think I might rejet the carb to run with no airbox lid. It sounds so sweet that way and there is more power. I bet it would go pretty good with a K&N and a good exaust.
