Honda TRX 250 R trannies queston

[banshee11]

i took my 250r motor apart and the shift forks are preety bad and the gears are getting bac. are the yukon gears worth putting in it. it has alock up 330 kit so it has some power? any ideas

[siderbox]

For what it's worth
I've been running a 330 for 7 years plus.
Been dynoed at Waynoka, 53hp.
Only thing I've needed to do is the clutch update.
Two other guys I know run 350s.
One guy replaced a gear pair when he was in it.

I do have a set of yukons that I plan on putting in when I build a puma next year.
Other than that I'd say you'd be ok to put stock ones back in.

But it's always better to be safe than sorry.

rebuild that tranny with those yukons

hay siderbox ur 330 only makes 53 hp
a stock yfz450 makes like 48 hp
my 310 with me on it will smoke a piped yfz by a bike length and thats against a rider that has 30 years of experence agianst my 6 -7 years and my wieght is 250 pounds against 220 pound rider
a 210 pound rider on my 310 will pull a piped yfz by 4 bikes
i was told my kevin at hjr that my setup will pull 60 hp no problem

I think they're only about 300 bucks. If that number is right, I'd say hell yeah it worth putting them in

I hear that, that 310 is an easy 60 hp, i`m glad i`m not the only one pushing 220 lbs my bike is like 280 lbs . I`ve had it land on me many yrs ago, banshees are like 375!!

As we all know dyno numbers are relative.
That was the numbers the one in Waynoka put out.

I don't have much problem with the modded YFZ's either.
I've had a few guys come back around to see what I was running.
If you know what I mean.

So PORTED you've been told that yours should pull 60.

I was told that the other quad I have should pull 110.

But as they say where I grew up.
"I'm from Missouri. Your going to have to show me."

Now I'm not saying I don't believe you.
I'm just saying don't get to hung up on the numbers.

Like you say you can stay with and take the modded YFZs.
That shows that your bike will run and run good.
I'm not saying all this to get in a pissing match with anyone.
I was just trying to give banshee11 some info so he could make a decision on what he wanted to do with his quad.

My ATC250R will pull on most if not all 450's...and it is truly a 250R, keeping the front end down is the challenge...don't need the yukon's as long as you have good Honda OEM gears, specially 2nd & 3rd gears.

ya no biggy its just that hp # u have on ur 330 sounded low it just caught my attention
the last thing i want is a pissing match
and i bet ur 330 would walk alot of bikes and dyno;s do seem to throw wierd numbers out

and banshee11 i would rebuild the tranny with stock gears but throw in a yukon 2nd and 3rd gear

Easy 60hp on a 310? Hell no!! Those #'s are wrong as is 48hp on a stock yfz, someones getting info fron the wrong sources...........

Thanks for stepping up SandPsycho and Sider. I was having a hard time with the part about "easy 60 hp" as well but I'm not sure I have enough street cred here on DC yet to introduce a comment like that. I'm not hatin, I assure you, a 310 can get there but it's anything but easy. A safe assumption is in the higher 40's and a reasonable tuner should be able to find "50 easy hp" in a 310. Anything higher than that and I'm with Sider...bring the dyno sheet or leave the numbers out of it.

And the YFZ hp data is inflated about 10hp as well.

Also, your R is nice PORTED so please don't take any of that the wrong way brother.
