totaly not ready for this but my fiance and i were out furiture shoping and then went to get a X-mas gift and i saw a sofa in someones yard and behind it was a 83/84 ATC250R!!!!!! :w00t: i about crapped my pants and thru the car around, got out and ran across the road like alittle kid after a ball. i jumped on it and looked it over. i couldnt find a price tag on it or number tocall so tomorrow i think i may take a run over there again and see if i can get it even if it dont run because its all there.
it had 20in racing tires on it, dont remeber the kind but not turf tamers or holeshot/ITP's. front tire is stock. all tires are pretty bald i think, about 60% gone. plastics were not cracked but some what starting to fad, just starting, seat over was split in about 4-5 places also. personaly i think its been outside for sometime because alot of the bolts on the tripple tree were 100% rusted. pipe and silencer were all stock also. only aftermarket parts i saw were rear tires and red maier rear fender.
how much are these 83/84 air cooled 250R's worth in this type of shape, neglected but not to the point there its a total throw away? i am really excited, i dont have hardly any money at all since i need thousands for a home i just bought but i saw this out of the corner of my eye and its very rare to see racing 3wheelers around where i live. personaly ive only need a 1981 ATC250R in real life but this is the 1st one i ever sad on. i felt right at home on it, for some reason i though they were really big but it didnt seem much bigger then the ATC125M i sat on.
so shoot me an idea on price. i could make it look mint again with time, i know the 85/86 R's can go for alot nice but its not anything nice, just a 22 year old used trike needing a bunch of TLC now.
help me on price, id be so happy to get this thing, it looks freaking sweet!
