IT DONT SMOKE?!:?!?!?!? is that what happens when 2 strokes need a rebuild, they actually STOP smoking lmfao


on a side note, there are 87 250r's around. Ask for a picture of the stamp on the kneck, that plate will have the year of the machine on it. Doubt its a 250r, probably a 250sx or something else if the guy even mentioned it NOT smoking. 250r=supposed to somke 250sx=not supposed to smoke

Honda did make a 87 250r its the fourtrax. Alot of people call the other 250 hondas a r.Like the 250 big red and 250sx.

You're right about that, I saw a Bigfoot riding one in the woods just the other day!

Lol that's funny. On a serious not there have been one 87 250r pop up I remember, someone had it out at the dunes that actually rode it. I will have to look up the thread for that, but they do exist! I swear!

A mythical creature!! Talked about, but never actually seen..every once in a while someone recalls a guy they once knew that owned one.

But no real evidence has ever surfaced..

In the Dirt Wheeles ad they stated that Honda was going to rerelease the 86 in 87.I wonder if alot of the last so called 87s would show a 86 serial #.:wondering

I agree,,,,Because Obviously,,,,ALL of the pictures of 87 Honda 350X's and 250 R's were PHOTOSHOPPED !!! They were NEVER built !! The ones the Honda boys RODE,,the ones Dean Kirsten and the press RODE,,,,,NEVER EXISTED !!!! All of the 87 parts that have surfaced over the years,,were handbuilt ! 87's just don't exist :) :) :)

At least Kawi had it in them to release their 87 mythical creature, haha, Jk Bill,

These threads remind me of the "lepricon sighting in alabama" on youtube

The '87 atc250r is much like "God"

Some people say they have seen it, there r pictures here and there, and people they know tell of stories involving it but yet no proof is ever there that it exists.

Pretty funny actually. So history says if enough people buy into it, then it is real.

Maybe we could start a new religion, Trikeology, or trikianity

What a joke...lol

chevy made 20 L88 vettes in 1967. 20. i have spoken personally with no less than 50 people that owned one, 100 people that knew a guy that owned one, and 500 people that knew a guy that knew a guy that owned one. fiction. 87 r stories are the same thing. its a strange phenomenon that causes otherwise reasonable people to fabricate such tales. i don't get it. :crazy: if anybody needs me, i'll be doing burnouts in my 67 L88.

Are you SURE you have EZ' s permission to post in this thread???? Cool stuff Jay. 1st bike we bought out of Canada was a spankin new TRX 400,green,,YUCK ! But,,,they sent us back the duty tax ,,twice. I,,,,would have not thought about it back then. Dad called them and told them. They said there was NO mistake and to keep it. No problem! It had a Speedo,in KMH of course,and a few other "next year" things we didn't see till the next year down here. Jeezz,,I hope I don't get in trouble again for posting...

Ok Bill, I'm sorry. How's this- I have both the 87 250R and 87 350X in my garage and I am looking at them while typing this. Both in the crate. I just don't want to show you guys because I am a schizophrenic hoarder.

I am usually the flag bearer for the cautiously skeptic crowd, but I am changing my pesimistic stance and I do believe that one day one will pop up. There is just too much evidence out there to close the book and say that there was never at least one produced. You can even see the raised warning label on the white fenders from the Japan bike and Dean Kirsten went out of his way to mention "the one with white fenders". The guy had been there and done that back in the day, why would he just throw that out there? This guys whole existence for ten years was ATV's.

I once thought that our little internet community was all the world had to offer as far as trikes were concerned, but have come to realize we are just a microcosm in the grand scheme of things. Just remember at one point in time the world was flat.;)

Just to be clear though I will still give the guys crap who come on here and claim to have a unicorn, bigfoot, and a '87 250r in their garage, but somehow can't find a camera to prove it.:pics:

I am certainly guilty of not using a smartphone,or taking pics..And I don't have a Sasquatch,Unicorn or a 87R in my GARAGE...But You can still ruffle my feathers anytime though !! You my friend have Obviously sat back and LOOKED at WHAT actually happened back in the day ....

That's much better. Isn't there a fund raiser for Obama,or an anti gun rally you should be attending right now? Good luck with everything....
