Does anybody know how much I should bid on this three wheeler? I had one just like it when I was a kid and I really want to buy this one but it seems expensive. Someone please tell me it's OK

looks like a atc250es 1985 or 1986? I own the older dual range non-suspention 200es and I paid $600 for it way back in 1991 so im sure that one wouldnt go for more than $500

No Help
 
Your advice is not helpful in making me feel better as it is already at 1900....
Thanks for the advice.....

I have an 86 and thought it was really clean compared to what I've seen go for 1,000-1,200 around here, but that one looks almost new. So yea, it is getting up there, but if you really want one, you'll look a long time, if you ever, before you find another one that clean. People used these things to death.

That one looks mint and is in a class of its own, Looks like the big one also with dual range and reverse. The guy is not going to give it away.

I bought a mint 1981 Yamaha 300 Enticer in 1982 for $1500. I just bought a mint condition 1982 340 Enticer last winter for $1000.and it was a deal.

I bring it to vintage sled shows,there not cheap because there old.

Thats a nice looking ATC.

That atc still has the stock tires!! I could see that going for 2200 in the north east. I would think that the people who are bidding would want that in a collection. Not to ride through the woods.

All original un molested bikes are gonna go for alot, not many of them left.

Missouri Midwest. They are getting $2500 for someting that cherry. Worht every penny. Best susension on any three wheeler, and also best gearing with the 6 soeed.

Jeez, it's perfect! I'd shuck out $2500 for it to do nothing but putter about the yard with it. That is sweet!

minty fresh 86 for 800, orig owner, gramps died and the kids wanted quads (WHY!) everything works 84 for 350 but I got a farmer bike 87 bigred, 20 hrs work on the carb but it is now perfect..horse trading around cost me 200$ Idles like a sleeping baby and too much fastness when I hit it in the beginning of 3rd gear I have too many things I don't want wet or dirty so I got trikes I can actually use. That one you're considering I would put in a heated garage and use it to get the mail. It can only go UP in value if it's real and true. Check the rear differential oil. It only hold 3 THREE ounces and one oz looks like its full. Offer to change the oil for free and look for sparkle soup. make sure the shifter doesn't want to spin on the splines. and make sure the choke works and or changes the idle when running. If that choke enrichment circuit piston gets stuck, it new carb time or drill and destroy. Feel the exhaust pipe when you look at it. Sometimes people warm them up before we get there and they start perfectly. deadcold start tells a lot
