Yeah, kinda does look like a SX. I was going for a 350x theme. My goal was to make fork rebuilding seem more manageable.

@@nate32185 it was, well done.

Thank you. I have started a video of more big red maintenance. Hopefully I’ll finish it soon.

Thanks for watching. I will do more atc videos, I promise. I just picked up 3 more atc’s last week.

You’re welcome. Good luck!

Your welcome!

Thank you!

You’re welcome. Thanks for commenting.

Your welcome. Thanks for watching!

Awesome! Glad I could help.

Where did you get the white tank?

I believe the boots were Daystars. I paid $30 for them. My front tire doesn’t hold air for long. So when the tire starts to deflate, the boots start rubbing. I put holes in both boots on the second ride. 🤦‍♂️ As long as you keep good tire pressure you should be good. I plan on trying out a 10” wide tire on a different rim this spring.

Try eBay first, or your local Honda atv/motorcycle shop should be able to get you the seals you need.

The boots and seals came from eBay. They are Daystar royal blue. rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F333243386748 and the seals are All Balls rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F173693202648

Thanks so much!

I believe the 200s, 200m, and 185s all take 3oz per fork.

Are you saying you can’t get the fork tubes out of the triple tree? If so, you need to pry open the slit in the triple with a large screw driver or pry par. Hammer it right in there. Be careful not to scratch the fork tube itself. Forks should pull out with some wiggling and down force.

@@nate32185 Thanks bro im going to try it

I’m no expert but I would assume if you are bottoming out the shocks, they are low on oil. The springs help maintain the stance but over time weaken and compress. I noticed that when I was done doing seals that there was still a little suspension droop. As in when you pick all the weight of the front end and set it down, the suspension compresses a little with just the weight of the bike. I would imagine new stiffer springs would fix this problem.

@@nate32185 first of all thank you for getting back to me so soon. Do you by chance know a company or have a link to who sells those springs? Thanks

I don’t. Try asking around three wheeler forums. I’m sure you could still get replacement OEM springs from a Honda dealer. They might fix your problem. But if you are a heavy guy (225lbs+) I would look at replacing with a more “heavy duty” one. I think they call them progressive springs. Let me know if you find some that fit. I might try them myself.😉

I would imagine yes. You might need to make your own studs from bolts by trimming them to the proper length. Use two nuts and jam them against each other to remove the old studs and to put in the replacement ones.

I bought the fork seals and boots on eBay.

I used automatic transmission fluid. Typically you would use a fork oil but ATF works just as well.

eBay. Type in “250es” and the item your looking for. People part out machines all the time so parts are pretty available. The new fork seals and boots where also from eBay.

If you are referring to the 6mm Allen bolt at the bottom. Try soaking the bottom of the forks in PB blaster or diesel fuel. Mine came out real hard!

@@nate32185 thanks! how did you fix the stock inside?

Try eBay or a Honda/3 wheeler Facebook group.

Mostly from eBay.

😂 That’s why I made the video. To teach people to do it themselves.
