Clear

This is a near mint condition 1986 Honda ATC 250es Big Red three wheeler. The machine has five forward gears and reverse. Foot shift with automatic clutch. Bike runs and operates like brand new. It is a low hour machine mostly used by a farmer to spray fence rows. Always stored indoors, so there is no rust or fading from the sun, and NO cracking on the original tires. The tread is deep and tires are soft like new. The bike has electric start which works great and a kick starter for back up. The motor starts immediately and runs whisper quiet. The factory exhaust is in great shape. The plastics and trim pieces are original and in beautiful shape with no cracks. All lights work as they should including the dash indicator lights. The head light on this model is detachable with no tools for use as a spot light/work light. Factory hitch is still on the bike. There has been no restoration of any kind and no touch up paint whatsoever on this machine. It is a true survivor. The fuel tank is immaculate inside with no rust. There is a very slight imperfection on the right side of the fuel tank. I tried to show it in the pics. You have to look closely to see it. The only non stock addition to this bike is the detachable wind shield, which works great to break wind on cooler days. The machine has a clear title, owner's manual and BOTH of the original keys. The 1986 model also has the factory keyed steering lock/helmet holder and upgraded rear end and rear brake assembly over the 1985 model. Many enthusiasts believe this machine to be the best off road bike ever built do to its maneuverability and the flip up rear fenders for easy cleaning. You don't need a football field to turn one of these around like you do with a 4X4 ATV, but they will go just about anywhere with the right rider. This is a quality factory original machine, so bid with confidence. Please refrain from bidding if you do not intend to buy. Thank you for looking.On Feb-29-16 at 14:18:03 PST, seller added the following information: The ATC also has the original tool kit under the seat. The rear storage compartment is not cracked and functions perfectly and still has the plastic tray holder for the owner's manual in it.
