Ok guys here it is... i am 15 and my uncle has a 1987 Honda 250r in mint condition... it even has the stock tires left on it and he hasnt had to rebuild the motor yet... its stock xcept for it has a different silincer on it and a igniton on it.... so its stock and today at dinner he goes to me he might sell it.... for 3000 im like damn ur gettin ripped off its worth more then that... but i want to buy it real bad but me and my dad just bought a warrior for me... so i dont ahvet he money.... but do u think he is crazy for thinking of selling it... but this is a Stock 250r its probly a rare quad means its stock and all he has to do to make it stock is buy a stock silincer... and unplug the ignition... ill try to get some pics of it but idk when it will be....

 

If you look at Cycletrader.com they have a couple hundred for about $3000, a 250r is only worth the big money if it already has the "goodies". Pipe, swingarm, big bore, extended front A arms, etc.. If it's stock and could use a rebuild, 3000 sounds ok but it better be clean and not in need of a total restoration... Remember it is a 14+ yr old bike and may need *every* bushing and bearing replaced and a fresh powdercoat on the frame which means a summer of fun and lovin IN THE GARAGE.. Could just buy a blaster and put CT racings 240cc kit on it, 40hp on a blaster is much more fun than stripping a bike to the frame[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

yea i know it would be worth a little more if it already had the goodies but how often do u find a stock 87 250r with the origianl tires in perfect condtion but the only thing this has on it is a silincer that makes it sound better... and an ignition on it i think.. which is off in 5 min... im still thinkin about it and he hasnt put it in the paper yet

 

eh.. 3000 is about the going rate and a well ridden R. ive seen bone stock Rs that have been sitting for 10 years fetch about 4500. and even if you have an r with all teh goodies you most likely wont be able to fetch more than 5 or 6 grand. its almost better to part the bike out when its time to sell
