[vintagemotorsports]

I traded some brochures with a guy in Australia a while back and was just going through some of them now , check this out this is 1988 model ATC 250es . how cool is this . look at the bike close it has some funky changes besides the graphics, extra wide rear fender mud gaurds , has a horn button mounted up by the master control look at the rear tires they are different from the conventional front and the dash color is real light grey wonder how many of these are out there , thought it would be cool to share

enjoy Mike

Thanks for posting Mike. Does anyone know exactly how many were produced and sent to which countries? Sorry if I have posted an age old question with no answer:wondering

There was a thread on here about a guy who found a 88' "super red" in Australia... i can't seem to find it though.

There have been a few,one a month or so ago on EBAY . It was chopped and hacked into a "sport " trike. 2 others that I know of,,they looked just like a 88 TRX 300 graphics. NOTHING like this girl! Let the search begin!

Ok boys !! been going through all these brochures check this thing out , Ive never seen this looks like honda was trying to find a market for all the 87 ATCs they couldnt sell in the states, this bike may have never materialized as this looks like a prototype drawing but this is an official Honda brochure so it may have happened to some extent . this could be too much new stuff for one day (LOL) let it soak in ...

^^ Its a Euro/Australian SX! ("farmrunner"???? Couldnt come up with a name, something cooler than that Honda??)

[dirtwheels]

Great stuff! That would be an easy logo for Harlan to make if anyone wanted their own Farmrunner. I like the "Penetrating 45/45 watt halogen headlight and out-of-the way taillight" Who writes this stuff? haha. Even for 1987, that english is a bit of a stretch... I love it!

[vintagemotorsports]

yea alot of Hondas english is straight from japan , When I was working with honda doing all those restorations I used to crack up at the emails I get from them . They are all great people but they definitley have a different way of wording things . Ok whos going to build the first farmrunner the racks would be easy to find and i bet they used the optional large mudflap they sold for the big red , I wonder if any made it to real life I love chasing this stuff...

Thanks for posting this stuff!

[rdlsz24]

lol at the FarmRunner... those mudflaps look like they would get ripped off the first time you backed up

Man I want one of those big reds they look like a giant beast. Anyone whos got one is really lucky and whats with the FarmRunner its funny and only from honda. Very cool thanks for posting.

Oh man, that's just too cool! I like the last line on the left, "capacious" rear storage. Who thought that one up?
