how hard is it to do that my dad has a 2006 250 recon honda
I would like to do it for him?

looks good

its very simple and cheap all you need is about 6ft of 1 1/4 PVC and 3 1/ 1/4 90degree angles and 1 1/ 1/4 45 degree angle then if you get that then ill tell you the rest of how to do it

did not under stand you how much feet agin? space it out

Hate to breakit to you, but if you have a Foreman you need a bigger pipe. Say 1 1/2 to 2 inch pipe, this will allow enough air to the engine.

kool snorkle

I've tried it out and it is enough air flow it runs like it should maybe even a little better

Give it a test run.
Put in a new plug and run it around the block at full throttle. Stop the motor immidiately, do not goose it. Pull the plug and check the color, it will probably be black which means your firing more gas than air in the piston chamber. This will build and cause valves to sit wrong which will lead to oil on the piston head which equals smokey motor.
If your plug is tan or light brown=all good.
White=more air than fuel.Bad
If it runs great and the plug checks out then BravoZulu, which means good job.

The test went good although I didn't snorkel the carb which messed up my hole day but I'm going to snorkel that today.

If you didn't snorkel the carb, what did you snorkel?

While on the subject of snorkels .
I have a Honda trx 300 I'd like to snorkel.
I checked High lifter and another but found only kits for Foremans .
Anybody got pics of  a 300 with a snorkel?

i have the air box but i mean i didnt do the vent line to the carb

heres a pic of my 300 snorkeled. its not a pic of the snorkel itself but the bike

dose ur 300 spin them vamps good cuz i got 27x10x12 for my rancher how the 300 spin the back

wat year 300 i got a 97 and a 2000

I got 26" vamps on my 300  and it spins them ok i guess. Some times it seems like its a  bit under powered.

I'm considering a snorkel but I'm wondering what affect it'll have on the power band.
I rode one that had a home made snorkel , it ran ok on low end but would fall flat on its face at top end.

my 300 4x4 spin my mudlites wit no problem and my other 300 4x4 spins my 27 vamps wit no problem

What can I put on the PVC to prevent it from melting or will it not? My snorkel is like 2inches from my motor. What can I do?

I think that looks a little ghetto! Why not run the pipe under the gas tank and straight up through the fender?

its a 96 and as of now its got a lift kit, lift springs and the clutch kit. The clutch kit made the biggest difference in take off. Well that and the exhaust. But it spins them pretty good. I do notice in really thick stuff that it tends to need a little more power. Right now the motor is stock but soon to be bored out. I bought it for $600 and have invested maybe another $600 and countless hrs on fabricating stuff. I got the 27 vampires through a tire company having a special on 26's and when he told me he had 27's in the compound sitting for 2yrs i couldn't pass up the $300 deal i got for them.

This way if I decide not to want the snorkel i can just take it off and not have an ugly hole in the fender but I'm also not done with it

  i havr a kodiak450 4x4 do you have any pic or know how to snorkel them

  I say whatever works can you snorkel a kodiak 450 4x4 also and do you have any pictures

looks okay to me
 >:D

Sealing the airbox.
Top pic is where the hose went thru the box.
Bottom pic is where rubber rivets that held crank filter to box were at.

I dont understand the second pic ???

Size and type.
I laid out the setup. You need to use washers that barely let the screw pass thru it. The ones in the pic are incorrect inner dia. but correct outer dia..
