oh400ex 629 Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) If you were looking for a 300 Fourtrax project I may have a gem here. "My husband has a 1993 Honda 4 trax. All time 4x4..... It needs a lot of work. We thought we could fix it up. He does ride it. Do to different issues we don't have time to work on it. Call or text. [hidden information]. It's not pretty, but the right person they can get it running good. Price is $400. But money talks" I would bet it could be picked up for $200. If anyone wants I could get it for you. I would buy this if I had the money and space for it to sit. Edited October 4, 2020 by oh400ex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do have money don't have storage to be technical about it 😅 This is in the original post lol Quote "My husband has a 1993 Honda 4 trax. All time 4x4..... It needs a lot of work.

Hopefully it finds a good home and I would help however possible if a forum member wanted it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've lost count----- Bought that tan thing in a "deal you can't refuse" sort of situation. Ragged out but one owner. Bad history kinda but at least I know the history anyway lol Maybe someday I'll build a Fish machine with some tractor tires on it or something lol. Have no immediate plans that's for sure. Between myself, dad, and my wife we have +10 utilities and 5 sports if you include a few parts bikes lol Also we have a few Honda scooters and small dirt bikes. I have spent my whole life collecting old Hondas Projects wise I have the XR80, CR80, 450ER, 250/350x and that Foreman on the bench right now. Glorified oil change tech type work on people's SXS is starting to kick up as our Honda is backed up and I am known as one of the guys who will treat it like factory. Not looking for a money pit project... that is for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not looking for a money pit project... that is for sure. all USED atv's are money pits...question really is...just how much do you want to spend on it to make it right and new again ?..lol. my '03 trx450fm was trashed when i bought it, paid 300 bucks for it, got it from Fayetteville,ar. drove all the way there and back. i spent right at 5k into her, she's like a brand new '03 trx450fm to me, and i'll keep her ! :-). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree 100% TRX450ER was purchased for 8 and will have almost another 8 in just parts to get it back to mostly right. Foreman was purchased for 13 and will have (at minimum) another 15 including labor and parts. Hard to explain this to someone if they haven't lived it... The original owner of the foreman for example would NEVER have paid to fix it right. It is in a good home 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tan (95?) only has a bad relay to keep it from electric starting. (Starts with a quarter) It needs a rear end but I have one sitting next to it. It needs time. Edit: Old number 3 sold for $500 lol (allegedly) Guess they had some interest. Four wheelers are hot right now but winter will put that out.
