Nice score! I'll give you twice what you paid for it...

Yeah, don't look the best but for free + it runs,,,, nice.
I'd say you owe your friend at least a lunch. Very nice xmas present anytime of the year !

Actually looks kind of mean without rear fenders, and one heck of a lot better than it did before.

Nice, I recently became a 250es convert from it's smaller brother (I have 200e also) and have realized that the 250 Big Reds never die. Also; those rear fenders are savable (I don't see missing plastic or cracks from your pics). A heat gun will bring back the color from the sun fade. If there are cracks just pull-tie stitch them. Also there is some rub using flax seed oil and turpentine (Have to google it). Or just run it as is. I must admit I am jealous that yours came with the ultra rare Hondaline Dip-bars on the rear rack for working your triceps at the beach.

She cleaned up nicely! Did you recover the seat yourself? I too noticed the dip bars on the rear rack - see, Honda thinks of everything!

Thank you, I'm happy to be back; haven't owned a trike for about a year now I had to sale them while I finished school!

I hear you don't get to much time to play around with mine either; my kids and work keep me real busy!

Nice job on the seat and I love the white tank. I just got one yesterday in very similar shape with no rear fenders.

What are you using for a 12 inch wheel up front?

I'm not sure I'm actually trying to figure that out lol I got the rears installed and used 25x10-12 but i think I'm going to go 24x8-12 for the front; hopefully it looks ok 238765
