lol yea if you've got 6k lieing around the place it would be perfect.  why would you buy a fl350 for 6k when you could buy like 5 or 6 fl250s for the same price. |

Tom Im an absolute newb when it comes to carting in general or ATV specs yet but I thought the difference apart from cubes is the extra suspension. True? (Pardon my ignorance yet too of your personal profile)
Guy with a shabby metal fl250 and 1/2 hand built tub turned down $1k on e-bay last week.
I guess you're saying that most guys who buy these can work on their own and build them up anyway, thats your point?
Well a finished one would appeal to me since Im unable to work much on the vehicle (experience and physically).
But personally I guess Im in line with everyone else wating for the holy grail the pilot. Seen Aussieduner's in this string?
Been watching hotted up oned doing neverending somersaults 50 feet in the air after sone whacks a 750cc race motor i them and then decides for longest jump possible. ACE (to watch that is!!) lol.
I take it you yourself work on a few?

6k is really getting up there for an FL350, for that $ i would expect to see upgraded works type shocks and water cooled head conversion on it.

im fairly new to them 2 ive been fascinated like any enthusiast of a bike/buggy/ or car, so i have learnt quiet a lot quickly on prices, etc, and have been learning about them on different international forum sites. I'm still in high school and did a project on restoring a racing kart which got me started.  im not that experienced with the engines themselves though but that buggy defenetly inst worth 6k. Though the fl350 does have full suspension, wouldn't you rather buy a fl250 for 800-1100 and then make tons of mods. I got my first Honda Odyssey Fl250 on Friday, but its not running.  |

Hmm sometimes it depends Tom a 2fitty might be build witha smaller guage frame not expecting to have the abuse etc so I dont know any of that. Just seeing some of the U tube clips most guys have modded up a PIlot 400 rather the either the 350 or 250.
Congrats on your purchase though, remember to stick some pics up as you strip it down and mod it up!
Even send some in to ATV Action per Note in General Chat.

| 250's arent really comparable to 350's. Although they are alot dearer, it is really due to the fact of how rare they are, as they were only built in 1985 where as 250's were made right through the 80's |
