Finally got my old ’86 TRX back to running condition. Still needs a bit of spit and polish, but at least it runs. This quad has been dead reliable the whole time I’ve owned it(typical Honda) but a teenage son can be hard on stuff! Being that it is an OLD machine, and parts are hard to come by upgrades are done creatively. Swapped wheels with a Rancher several years ago for better tire options, but the exhaust was a sticking point. Well, got crazy with the sawzall over the weekend and pieced together a setup with left-over parts from a 400EX I used to have. It’s still a work in progress, but at least I have a solid, mostly non-leaky, "aftermarket" exhaust system now.
