1985 Honda ATC250R

Not Available

NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD OFFER THIS FOR SALE, BUT HERE IT GOES..........KIDS ARE GETTING OLDER, AND DO NOT SHARE ALL MY SAME INTERESTS, AND WOULD PROBABLY NEVER APPRECIATE THIS IN 20 OR 30 YEARS WHEN I GO TO THE BIG RACETRACK IN THE SKY, SO I AM SELLING AND USING THE MONEY TO KNOCK A FEW MORE ITEMS OFF OF MY BUCKET LIST......I COULD NOT IMAGINE SOMEBODY IN 20 YEARS EVEN TRYING TO DRIVE THIS, LOL.....AS MUCH AS PEOPLE SAY WE ARE BECOMING MORE ADVANCED, THERE WILL PROBABLY ONLY BE A HANDFUL OF GUYS LEFT ON THIS PLANET THAT CAN OPERATE THIS IN THE FUTURE ! I HAVE HAD THIS IN MY HEATED GARAGE, FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS. IT WAS AN ABOVE AVERAGE RESTORATION PROBABLY 12-15 YEARS AGO WHEN I PURCHASED, BY NO MEANS ALL ORIGINAL, LIKE NEW, MINT, OR PERFECT AS MOST PEOPLE LIKE TO ADVERTISE. IT IS A PARTIAL RESTORATION. THIS HAS GIVEN ME A LOT OF SMILES OVER THE YEARS, AND IS NOT 100% PERFECT, SO WHEN I WANT TO HOP ON IT AND BEAT A BANSHEE OR A TRI-Z, I DO NOT FEEL GUILTY, LIKE IF IT WAS AN UNMOLESTED TRIKE FRESH OUT OF THE CRATE. I ALWAYS LEANED TOWARDS HAVING A HIGH QUALITY 250R THAT I COULD ENJOY WHEN I WANTED TO, VERSUS HAVING A TRUE MUSEUM PIECE. WITH THAT SAID, I DID HOWEVER, NEVER TAKE IT OFF OF BLACKTOP OR GRASS ! ON A SIDE NOTE, DID YOU KNOW THAT A YAMAHA TRI-Z IS NAMED THAT BECAUSE, IT ALWAYS "TRIZ" TO BEAT A 250R, BUT WE ALL KNOW HOW THAT STORY ENDS......HAHA CHANCES ARE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A 250R, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT. ASK ANY QUESTIONS AND I WILL ANSWER ACCURATELY AND HONESTLY. WILL BE ADDING INFO INCLUDING PICTURES DAILY, SO KEEP CHECKING BACK. PRICE WILL ALSO READJUST AS I COME TO GRIPS WITH SAYING GOOD BYE TO HER..... STARTS, IDLES, AND ABSOLUTELY RIPS ! HAS BEATEN MANY OTHER 250R'S, BANSHEES, AND NEWER POLARIS'S......NO LEAKS, DRIPS, OR ISSUES. ALWAYS STARTS 2ND KICK WHEN COLD, EVEN IF IT HAS SAT 6 MONTHS OVER THE WINTER. OBVIOUSLY 1ST KICK WHEN WARM AN ORIGINAL HONDALINE COVER WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE BUY IT NOW PRICE......OTHERWISE, I AM KEEPING THE COVER FOR MY OTHER BABY ! WOULD PREFER MEETING BUYER IN PERSON WITH CASH, BUT HAVE SOLD AND SHIPPED A LOT OF ITEMS ON EBAY OVER THE YEARS, AND HAVE NO PROBLEM DEALING WITH HOLDING A LITTLE WHILE LONGER, AND LOADING ONTO A TRUCK OR TRAILER. AS THEY SAY, CASH IN HAND BEFORE ANY TEST RIDES. I WILL DEMONSTRATE STARTING, PERFORMANCE, AND SHIFTING IN PERSON, UNLESS CASH CASH IS IN MY HAND FOR COLLATERAL. AT THIS POINT, NO INTEREST IN PALLETIZING. LOCATED IN JIM THORPE, PA WHICH IS CLOSE TO PA TURPIKE, INTERSTATE 80 & INTERSTATE 81
