1976 Honda MR250

WELL I AM PLEASED TO BRING YOU COLLECTORS AND RIDERS A VERY RARE ONE YEAR ONLY HONDA ELSINORE MR250 !!!! THIS BIKE IS IN AWESOME SHAPE FOR THE YEAR AND YOU JUST DONT SEE THEM. THE LAST ONE I SEEN WAS IN A MUSUEM.... THE BIKE HAD A MINOR RESTORE YEARS AGO BY OLDER GUY THAT OWNED IT AND HAD ONE WHEN HE WAS KID. THE BIKE ALREADY HAD AND STILL DOES SUPER LOW MILES !!! AT 1,099 IT HAS HAD A EASY LIFE. THESE ARE A PREMIX 2 STROKE 250CC POWERHOUSE THAT HONDA ENGINEERS TOOK THE POWERPLANT FROM A CR250 RACE BIKE OF THAT YEAR AND MADE SOME CHANGES AND A HEADLIGHT,TAILLIGHT AND SPEEDO WITH TOOL KIT ETC SO YOU COULD HIT THE TRAILS IN STYLE. OIL COOLED REAR SHOCKS ALSO VERY COOL. SO ONTO DETAILS, THE BIKE IS/WAS VERY ORIGINAL BUT DOES HAVE ALOT OF NEWER NOS PARTS AND SUCH ON IT. BIKE IS ALL COMPLETE MINUS BAFFLE IN MUFFLER AND THE FRONT FENDER IS FROM A CR. ALSO SHOWN IN PICS EVEN AS THE ORIGINAL TOOL KIT AND ALMOST PERFECT OWNERS MANUAL !! GOT BIKE AFTER IT SAT AWHILE IN HEATED GARAGE AND DID THE USUAL, WENT OVER IT CLEANED CARB PUT SOME FRESH FUEL IN AND SHE COME ALVE IN A 2 KICKS. BIKE RUNS VERY WELL AND PULLS LIKE A MULE, ITS HARD TO FINE A TUNE A2 STROKE IN THIS COLD WEATHER, SO IT COULD STILL USE A LITTLE FINE TUNING BUT RUNS WELL NOW, CANT IMAGINE IF FINE TUNED, HAVING SPEEDO YOU GO THRU GEARS AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT YOU LOOK DOWN AND YOUR DOING 70MPH WITHOUT EVEN TRYING !!. SO ONTO NEW PARTS AND SUCH, THEN CONDITION OVERALL. NEW PARTS..... INCLUDE- ALL NEW CABLES, NEW LEVERS, NEW HIGH QUALITY MICHELIN CROSS COMPETITION TIRES, NEW RUBBER GROMMETS/PARTS, NEW DECALS, GAS TANK WAS PROFESSIONALLY LINED INSIDE, NEW PAINT ON GAS TANK, ENGINE AND EXHAUST HAD A FRESH COAT OF HIGH HEAT PAINT, NEW GRIPS, NEW SPROCKET, PETCOCK REBUILT, NEW REBUILD ON FORKS, THERE MAY BE MORE THAT I AM FORGETTING. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS WAS ALL DONE A FEW YEARS AGO AND ALL STILL LOOKS GREAT OF COURSE WITH SOME MINOR WEAR, LIKE A FEW LIGHT SCRATCHES IN FUEL TANK AND ONE VERY SUTTLE DING IN GAS TANK, VERY SUTTLE. ONTO CONDITION......... D.I.D. ALUMINUM WHEELS ARE SUPER NICE, SOME MINOR SCUFFS FROM NORMAL WEAR, SPOKES ARE RUST FREE, SEAT IS PERFECT, ALL THE CHROME INLCUDING HANDLEBARS, RARE HEADLIGHT GUARD ETC VERY NICE, NO LEAKS ON BIKE ANYWHERE, ALL SWITCHES AND CONTROLS IN GREAT SHAPE, LITTLE HIGH LOW KNOB MISSING ON LEFT SWITCH FOR HEADLIGHT, SPEEDOMETER WORKS IS MISSING TRIP KNOB, EXHAUST IS DENT FREE, CYLINDER HEAD DOES HAVE ONE OUTER FIN WITH A CHIP OUT OF IT, FENDERS AHVE TYPICAL SCRATCHES AND SCUFFS, FRAMES SIDE COVERS HAVE A FEW SCUFFS ON THEM AND SOME WEAR IN THE COLOR AT THE BOTTOM, NO LEAKS ON BIKE ANYWHERE, PEDALS AND PEGS ALL GREAT, FACE OF SPEEDOMETER HAS A FEW MINOR SCUFFS, THE BIKE STARTS RIGHT UP, SHIFTS THROUGH ALL GEARS FINE, STRONG CLUTCH. RIGHT LOWER FORK TUBE DOES HAVE A FEW SCRAPE MARKS IN IT. THE ONLY THING THAT DOES NOT WORK IS THE HEADLIGHT/TAILLIGHT DID NOT LOOK INTO JUST MAY NEED BULBS. OVERALL THIS IS PROBABLY THE FINEST EXAMPLE OF A ONE YEAR ONLY MR 250 ELSINORE YOU WILL EVER SEE. THE BIKE IS SUPER CLEAN AND STRAIGHT, YOU CAN TELL IT WAS NEVER BEAT ANY TIME IN IT'S LIFE. CHECK OUT THE PICS AND DON'T MISS THIS BEAUTY!!!!!
