Rob J. 1,941 #1 Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) I picked this up today from an interesting gent who is a CC and JD guy. I was pleasantly surprised at the tour of his mancave, if that’s appropriate wordage. He did have a couple of Wheel Horse dealer signs from local businesses. He won’t sell them yet. 😂 But man even though it was the wrong color for me it sure was a treat to see this collection and talk with the man who amassed it. What I want to ask from some of you who have done it is how you set yours up. Mine came with a mounting plate although I’m not sure if it’s factory. Are your set ups more a permanent set up or can you easily take the genny on and off? Any pics would be much appreciated as well.

In 1984, a bunch of us went to the Honda dealer to buy these new,(at the time), Cycles. My Brother and I got the 250X's, which were 4 stroke 4 wheelers, with reverse. Nobody had the nuts to get the 250R'sm which were 2 Stroke, 4 wheelers, no reverse, ROCKETS (Again, at the time) my Partner (business, at the time) bought the 350, which was a THREE Wheeler, in Red White and Blue. I cant remember the prefix/suffix letters at the time, But it looks very much like the one in the above Pix, that isn't for sale. It was flat out dangerous,,,, VERY Fast (Again, at the time) and Very Unstable. It was also the time of the Honda Odyssey.... Another friend of a friend bought one. Again, very fast Go Cart Style 4 Wheeler. Turned out they stopped making them after a few deaths. They seemed to roll over, then drivers got trapped in the seat with harness attached....hard to roll back over.... but if it happened near water, it became fatal. But that too was a lot of fun. Good ol' days, huh? GLuck, Jay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
