Vehicle Detail
Here is a 1975 Honda MT 250. I have owned this bike for 15 years; it has been stored in a garage and has been ridden lightly every season and never off road. I’m not an expert but I will describe the bike as best I can. As you can see from the pictures this bike is in very good condition but it is not perfect. The bike is complete with 99% original parts. The only thing I know that is not stock are the grips and the light controls. It is missing a mirror, decals on one side cover, the rubber on the kick starter, and it needs a new speedo cable, it will also need a new battery. The frame and fenders were professionally repainted before I purchased the bike. The tank is original and has some minor dings and spots on the exterior but as you can see, for its age it is VERY clean inside and out . The tires have some cracking on the sidewalls. As you can see the chrome is pitted in some areas and there is some rust in places. There is a small repaired spot on the seat. There is also a non stock compression relief lever. Starting this bike cold is difficult, but using the compression relief makes it easier. Once you get the bike started it runs perfectly, shifts through all the gears smoothly and can be re-started with ease. The oil injection system is still intact and works fine. The bike has the original manual, toolkit and a clean title. These bikes are getting harder to find in good shape. I have maintained this bike very carefully and have kept it in a clean dry garage since I have owned it. Aside from the minor defects I have mentioned this bike is in great shape overall and with very little effort it is an amazing opportunity to bring this classic bike to perfection. This bike is a blast to ride! These bikes are getting harder and harder to find. The buyer is responsible for crating, shipping arrangements and costs. I may be able to assist with this, but check with me before auction ends. This bike is 40 years old so it will be sold as is with no warranty. Please ask questions, and if you would like specific pictures I will be happy to send them. Good luck bidding. Fortunately for those of you who were interested in this bike the first time, the bidder that won was a deadbeat and never contacted me, so I am re-listing
