2012 txc310 purchase?

Going to look at 2012 txc310 to use as a dual sport to compliment my 17 te150. Any suggestions about what I should look for besides normal wear and tear?

great dirtbike, less so on the road. I take it NJ will let you license a TXC?

The starter gears are the only big thing that was suspect; but they kickstart super-easy anyway so it may be a non-problem for you if it has actually failed. Otherwise Husky has a upgraded heat-treated gear that is still available AFAIK.

enjoy.

Not usually but this one is plated in nj the main reason im interested. Thanks for the reply

If that doesn't work out, a friend will have his nice plated '10 TXC250 for sale soon. He wants to buy a TE150.

The engine does not appreciate highway riding for any length of time. I owned one for 2800 miles and it was OK but not great for dualsport. It excels in tight stuff though.

Maybe dual sport is the wrong term, i just want a 4st for more relaxed trail rides as i had to sell my beta 390rr. Dont plan on much road except to connect areas.

It's a god bike and i have one. It handles great and has good suspension.

As was stated the E-start is not the best.

I use the E-start only to restart after a stall (rare) or when the other guys just took off ahead of me (often), otherwise I kick it.

The transmission is close ratio and it is limited on the road to about 50-55. Beyond that it is way too buzy. Your Beta had a higher highway speed.

You can run a 49T rear sprocket to help a little if you ride in the sand. Maybe not if you ride up North in rocks.

yep, you're getting the prefect bike then.
