Saw a nice 250r at the grocery store.

[yamaha225dr]

It was in the frozen food section... lol I had mine loaded up and had to park in the lane next to it but didn't meet the owner until after I had went to a store on the opposite side of the lot. It was a pretty clean 86 and still had the Oem plastics. He doesn't know what all is done besides the FMF exhaust, extended swing arm and renthal bars, the previous owner claimed it had a stroker crank. We are gonna do some riding together soon and I guess we will find out if that claim is true, I do know the jug is stock though. I only got one cell phone pic. I'm glad to have finally found another R owner to ride with!

I got lucky growing up , a couple of my friends had 250es Big Reds and we done a lot of serious mud riding. We had some ponds behind our house that would dry up just enough in the summer that we could get down in them and just have a blast all day. There would sometimes be twenty to thirty of us teenagers down there just trying to blow our engines up! lol I m surprised none of us every got hurt.

ive taken mine to the store a few times. haha sometimes after a ride ill leave it in the truck when I run my errands, just to see if I can snag any other trike people in Maryland. ha

I saw a 200x in a truck on my way to buy a different 200x last year. It's cool seeing three wheelers around.

I don't know how far I am from Florence but would definitely like to go. What day are you going?

[250rRoostmaster]

You are about the same distance as me ( bout 3 hours/180ish miles ) We are hoping to go down on a Thursday so we can have the dunes to our self's Thursday evening and Friday! It's B.A. when nobody's out there and you get to cut fresh sand everywhere you go!

[yamaha225dr]

I'm off on Fridays, so I might have to meet up with you guys! I just got a 38mm carburetor and was planning to start jetting it this weekend.

[250rRoostmaster]

Did you get a airstryker? My R loves that carb and is super easy to jet

[yamaha225dr]

Yea, I hope it's as easy as everyone says, cause I hate jetting!

[250rRoostmaster]

It is, trust me. My old stock carb sucked big time and after rebuilding it still never worked right. Once i got the A/S all my problems were solved! Plus the 38mm helps feed my stroker motor:naughty:

[yamaha225dr]

lol I keep having people on here mentioning these big bore kits but I am still enjoying this bolt on power. I guess it will take seeing one in action for me to feel the need to buy one.

[250rRoostmaster]

I don't have a big bore, its a 86 motor with a 4mm stroker crank, 26cc head, dune porting and boost ported piston. It's a 272cc. For not being a BB and still rocking a stock cylinder it does pretty damn good!

[rg97]

there was someone ~6 months ago driving through hubbard, OH and getting on Interstate 80 with 2 350X's and a 250r, it was probably someone on here, or a really confident theif

[ps2fixer]

I have seen 2 people local to me (within 5 miles of my house) both riding one of the big red models doing yard work. One I bought a Ford Ranger off from quite a few years back, need to stop in and say hi some time lol. My cousin rides 3 wheelers as well, about 8 miles away, and there is a guy about 12 miles away with a really nice 1987 250sx he bought new and he buys/resells trikes or parts them out, don't look like he does much riding though :(. I always have my eyes on the lookout for 3 wheelers in yards, never hurts to find one sitting in the bushes and buying it super cheap :).
