Does anybody out there have a mint or close to mint 250es

[coteya]

Does any one as a mint or close to mint 250es big red!!

[coteya]

Well here is my 1985 Honda 250es Big Red, its mint i couldn't clean it up at a 100% for the reason that water freeze. We bought it a couple of years ago, and we didn't do a thing the original owner had it in a shed and it just pretty much sat there!

Nice looking trike! I know what you mean about cleaning the trike in the winter, at least they don't get as dirty once the mud freezes.


oh, do you mind making the pictures in your signature a lot smaller, it will take forever to load pages with pictures that big, and the threads get very long too. I think there is a suggested size limit somewhere (or maybe it is a rule, don't remember).

[coteya]

yes im trying to fix my sig do you know any good program to resize picture

[The Goat]

looking on my work monitor, I think he just squeaked in on the size limit. lol. it's 800x350 by the look of it.

always wanted a 250es... used to ride my paw paws when I was 3 or 4. Cool as hell.

I picked this one up a few months, the poor guy couldnt get it running, so I got it for 900.00. I do ride it, so I removed the side protectors, and mudflaps, so they wouldnt get wrecked. Lots of good that did, because on my last ride she wound up upside down, resulting in a cracked rear fender:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: , I was pissed to say the least. Guy has it 25 years, and its perfect, I have it 3 months, and the fenders cracked. Plan on buying a new oem for it, I think there about 160.00 per side. After the initial shock, the ride was awsome!! She's not detailed up, but you can see how mint it is.

[coteya]

Nice to Bad for the rear fender be careful when buying oem because sometimes they dont have the same color tint.

[hublake]

This is my BR that I restored. Have had it since new.

[coteya]

Nice to see those Big Red Still Alive

[oldtime3wheeler]

[atcquebec]

either you are single, or your wife loves you a lot. That is amazing.

I bought her a 250ES 1986 and she love it.
Now, when she see a trike, she is able to tell the mark, model, size and most of the time, the year of that trike.... yes she is my girl...

Here a pic of her on a hunting trip.

PS.. every tine i buy one, she is buying a pair of shoes..... and beleave me, she does.

[atcquebec]

:lol: some guys have all the money!!!!:lol:

You don't need a lot of cash to buy trikes.
I don't drink.
I don't smoke.
I don't go out.
And i prefer having an old car and put the $$$$ on trikes.:Bounce :Bounce

[pcdailey]

you could buy an awful lot of old iron with 20 to 30k a new car costs, well put. You have a very cool hobby.

[coteya]

[atc350xer]

Holy @#$& Tim... that's beautiful! Can't wait to see that one in person! And I say that enthusiastically! lol

[ATCrider42]

I know this isn't a 250 but they weren't making em in 1980. But here is my first trike i rode when I was a kid (and still do). It's the original big red! Old school with the chrome handle bars, round metal headlight, and manual reverse.

[Big G]

I realize this thread is over two years old, however thought it was worthy of review for those who haven't seen atcquebec's "museum." It is simply aww-inspiring. I would have never thought that someone would have a personal collection of trikes like this...well done!

[BigRedRider85]

Big G...I checked out atcquebec's pics and I think I just got a glimpse of heaven. WOW

[the great gazoo]

Yeah man! Thanks for bringing this one back!

[Fungo Wizard]

Those pics were phenominal!!!!!I made my wife sit down and look at his musuem and said look, someone with more trikes than me!! I would love to see that collection in person!!!

[oldtime3wheeler]

Heres my 86 my wife found me a few months back for a great price.

[Knobby Addict]

Had the red's out in our recent snow. Love my Big reds but hated those "gator" 6ply mud tires so much I traded the entire trike to my buddy for his 125M with real 2 ply balloon tires! Plus I didn't have a 125M.;)

[Knobby Addict]

Also got them dirty up north this fall...161597161598

[userj8670]

Knobby - could you post up some more pix of that camo cargo bag and some info...i likey alot!

[userj8670]

John - i didnt know you had horses??

[nik0708]

Tri again,
I have one of the San Diego police dept 250sx's in my collection, I can't pet pics on here for some weird reason, I'll try and get some on when I'm at work tomorrow, including my 86 BR.

Drool worthy as always my friend. I have a new/as new example of every Big Red from 82-88,with the exception of the 84.. Yours is a real beauty. Look at those squared away mud flaps..... wow. Your 88 R is still my favorite,,probably because I haven't got one yet lol.

[aldochina]

sweet 84 beerside! the one i picked up off fabio awhile back is probably similar in usage, but you can see the difference in the storage technique, and the so cal to north east climate!

[atc007]

Gotta love it don't we Rory. Nothing but rust down the underneath of these NE bikes :( Why I've resorted to importing dry trikes :(

[Big G]

All beautiful Big Reds indeed...but dang Beerside - that is truly a fine specimen. THAT is the definition of mint! What's the story behind that trike anyways?

[OKSTATE#1]

Saw this thread and had to reply....I have posted plenty of pics of mine lately, and I wanted to post my next pic in this one after I put on some NOS pieces later this week and square up some other items...
