Thank you! Hope you have a great holiday season as well.

Just picked up the same one but in red. Buddy gave it to me to add to the fleet. Electric start doesn’t work and with his back issues he can’t pull start it. It has been sitting for about 4 yrs. It still has the original tires but needs new ones

[@salmazza8750]

Another great video. Too bad you couldn't get it running I was keeping my fingers crossed.

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks! I had an extra top end in stock here but it appears she might need more than that.

[@cainbeeping8480]

Good luck brother. Merry Christmas

[@bigjay6743]

I love 2 strokes All my snowmobile's except 2 were 2 strokes the 4 strokes were heavy mind you they were reliable but more maintenance. Most Two strokes you can d*** near rebuild them in an hour They have way more get up and go especially nice in the mountains.

[@markbuck9299]

It may have a few problems but getting it for free is always nice

[@joeblan9426]

Merry Christmas to you Rock and your Family ! I look forward to your videos, GOD Bless!

[@jeremyfre9761]

The bottom may be good moves a little after you pried up the cylinder. Need a second set of hands, hammer the piston down while pulling on the cylinder.

[@rockspowersports]

Yeah, I figured I’d let it soak for a while then try it again.

[@jeremyfre9761]

@ i am usually good and patient with rusty hardware, when rust is holding it together its a different story. In the real world are either of them worth fixing? Maybe parts ebay could be your best friend!

[@markcollins5026]

Man, nice can you overhaul the engine one handed !

[@jeremyfre9761]

@@markcollins5026 that is a talent reserved for you ROCK!!

[@72mmALKYDRAGGIN]

28:27 could a person hit piston with a block of wood and hammer to drive down the piston to get the cylinder off???

[@upnorthvlogs]

I had one of those in the early 2000s I ran the piss out of that thing like I did with most of my Polaris I was more fond of the 400 L

[@wayne-oo]

Vinegar is the best way to break a frozen engine !

[@birddog3566]

The shift fork in the Xplorer transmission is probably the issue. Remove it and weld up the wear on the fork and reinstall.

[@philjenkins2320]

A Tri Z? Id love to see a series on that!

[@tin2001]

7:05 - ah... Got one of them old style fluffy white covers over it, i see. 😂

[@ryanyoung3539]

29:30 Wow that's toasted put it outside my guy and forget about it

[@nickjames2267]

I need help with my 99 kodiak 400 mostly with the head and the dome i did a bit of work to and i think i should have left it alone lol

[@mmiller1188]

If the green one doesn't have paperwork, the blue one is worth throwing together. A running and moving 4 wheeler with paperwork has to be at least $1500 ... Where I am itvis.

[@aceshot4679]

Hey man I’m located in Vermont I have a 08 KFX 450R was just curious how much you would charge to shim the the valves

[@shawncordeiroTerraceBC]

vintage 80s polaris guys always talk how much more power the 250 cyclone had My reasearch thinks ritter stage 1 kit with bigger carb with cylinder porting thin gaskits different dome for higher compression with top end pipe gives trailblazer about 8hp witch is what the cyclone engine has compared to the 90s polaris atv

[@Kingsoupturbo]

No luck for you! 2 bad 250's in a row! I like these as much as anyone, but ugh!! so much effort, get working on one of the better machines! outlander 800, Scrambler, one of the Grizzly's, bring it back to life and do a ripping test ride in the snow! What happened to the snowmobile video you posted, it disappeared!

[@rockspowersports]

Which snowmobile video? Nothing should have been deleted.

[@Doublejj55]

Make your own channel, most of us are here for his cool personality not necessarily the machine

[@Kingsoupturbo]

@@rockspowersports I must have been mistaken! I'm on one of the facebook groups for Polaris 2 strokes, people have blown motors all the time on there and exploded trans, must be the nature of the beast being so old to be at end of life! A shame!

[@GarageWorx]

It's seen better days.

[@nathandewittmusic3272]

My front sprocket is slipping on my 2000 250 explorer. Is that a gear inside the housing? When I get on a bind or on a hill it makes a sound like the teeth have ground off a gear and slips inside that housing and won't turn the front sprocket, is that a part I can still get or is it insanely expensive?

[@rockspowersports]

Is your front sprocket actually slipping or is that spinning but your wheels are not spinning? If the sprocket is spinning like it should and your tires are slipping you probably have an issue with your Hilliard clutch inside you wheel hub.

[@rockspowersports]

Oh I just re read your post and you said a 2000 so it must be shaft driven up front. So you mean your front front sprocket attached to the trans that drives your rear wheels?

[@nathandewittmusic3272]

@@rockspowersports it's definitely inside the hub, thank you, I will look that up, by the way great content, I appreciate the answer.

[@nathandewittmusic3272]

​@@rockspowersports yes, the front sprocket of the rear end, sorry I might not be wording that right.

[@Silent-Lucidity]

Would you be interested in selling the rims on the 250?

[@paulbudford]

I will never understand why y leave stuff outside with the plug out.

[@waynecurrie9017]

If you can get these older quads for cheap then you can make a little money off them as parts

[@djodjodubois9458]

Do you want cheap parts? I have 3 engines, a complete quad from the same year and 3 wing kits. 2 gas cylinders from 90-92 4x4 trail boss. Functional engines. I'm tired of 2-strokes.Not reliable enough when you drive alone..I'm looking for a 4-t...I'm staying in Beauce in Quebec

[@djodjodubois9458]

J ai 2 moteur fraîchement remonté.. sauté moteur au debut des neige..le moteur n est pas encore remis dans le quads ..4x4 fonctionnel et BEAUCOUP DE PIÈCES , 2 TRANSMISSION FONCTIONNEL ET SYSTÈME GEARS DE RECHANGE ET AXES
