i wonder if i'd be able to put the 2006 clutch set-up in my '04

Posted by: ZeroLogic

i wonder if there going to have alot of after maket parts

Posted by: my250ex

it says they have a SportClutch. what is it... is it just the same semi auto with a fancy name or is it a full manual clutch like a 400ex?

Posted by: AnthonyWhite

its like a rekluse auto clutch so ive heard. you can use the clutch but you dont have to. probably a good bike to learn on

Posted by: priebo15

well i figured it was a manual clutch just like a 300ex or 400ex...but incase u forget to engage the clutch when u stop or something, it doesnt stall.. it said its a no-stall clutch so thats what im guessing it means

edit:

"New for 2006

New TRX450R-inspired bodywork.
New hand-operated Honda SportClutch(TM). The new Honda SportClutch enables the rider to experience manual clutch actuation with the advantage of no stalling.
New front and rear suspension for improved ride and handling.
New brighter headlight.
New brake light as standard equipment.
New Black color. "

thats from atvsource or something like that...i went to google and put 2006 250ex and its the first link on the list

...i wonder how much better the suspension is? i wanna ride one now lol

i really like the plastics, too bad they didnt change the 300

Posted by: priebo15

yeah thats something that dissappointed me too
i was expencting it to have the 450r style plastics as well..since everything else does..even the trx90 lol

i like that they put the electric start on the 450r also

I don't really like it. Honda is using the 450r plastic too much imo. The ninety--ewwwwwwww. Electric start though on the 90 and the 450 though. And the rincon is 700cc.

Yeah, I think that they are using the "R" plastic a wee bit too much, but I like it regardless of it's resemblence to its bigger bro..

I only wished that they would have bumped the displacement on the motor a few cc's, say 20 or so. That way it would actually be a 250cc quad, instead of a 229cc quad with 250 stickers..

Noooooo, they need to leave the 300ex's plastics ALONE. I like its plastic even more being the only one that dosent look like a damn 450r.

Posted by: Sjorge300EX

i dont want them to change them too the 450, but to another design... like fullbores

I'm not really a fan of the new hood on the 450r. But as soon as I get one (whenever I can sell mine) I will just take off the hood and light and buy a Maier hood, and ditch every piece of lighting and electrics on the quad.

I like it alot better then the older models.
