Just found this forum while looking for some info on my 250. Value, parts etc. I really haven't done much to it. As you can see the seat is ripped a little and the fenders are zip tied in places, but all it does is run "like a raped ape" just like my friend said it would when I bought it several years ago.

A 'raped ape'.. that's crazy fun!!

Love it, care for and feed it..

Change it when it needs it, wash it when it's dirty..

Ride the crap out of it and repeat from the top..it will love you long time!

But seriously, you got a 85 ATC250ES but I'm sure you knew that..can't kill it!!

My advice, change the rear diff oil..bet it hasn't been done in 25 years.

Nice trike and welcome..

Ya I'm sure it hasn't been changed. Any idea on what its worth? I may be forced to sell it, but hopefully not.

1200-1500 range around here... Its a nice trike, with original tires and straight racks!

In Oregon? anywhere from 800-1200.
Top $ is usually one or 2 owner, orig tires, title and keys.

Maybe I need that one, but hope you don't have to sell it.

Worth TONS more in Canada but not sure about details of how to do that.
