Own a piece of history. YOU WANT TO SEE THIS!!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-Honda-ATC-250R-NOS-parts-OEM-crate-USED-/110593078762?pt=ATVs&hash=item19bfdc75ea

i want it!

dont we all...

Wow!! Reserve was not met at $44,600!!!!

thats rediculous. i would've unpacked it years ago and started beating on it!

Thats insane. Wonder what kind of $$$ it would bring if it was the fourtrax.

Don't know if a fourtrax would fetch that much, the threewheeler guys are pretty hardcore and crazy about the 250Rs!

i agree. trike guys are something else. i thought banshee guys were crazy...

True. The ATC 250r was the start of it all. Ive always wanted to rebuild a 250r to factory specs.

well there was 2 trx's on there for 89,000 with the reserve not met not in the crate but they were show room models had the tags and shit still on them i wanted them haha

Id rather rebuild a trx than the atc for sure.

see i never liked atc's till i got mine and rode it a lil bit i love it its so much fun

atc's are cooler to me because you never see them around here. banshees and trx's are nothing new.

I like the atc's better too but they are a bitch to ride on hills! One of my buddies has an 86 250R. Heres a pic of him from a while back dragging it at st joe.

our local sand spot is mainly hillshoots. when i get the Z running im sure it will be a wild ride up those hills lol.

Speaking of that, do you need anything out of our shop to make that happen dude?

ive mainly just been too busy working alot of ot at work. i need to finish stripping the frame and get it powdered and get a piston and bore the jug.

i spent my Z money on banshee parts last time i had some. im gonna have to make myself save the $ and get the Z finished.

i might hit you up when i get the funds if you still have some parts. thanks bro.

We've got Z part coming out our ears around here. We piled up wayyyy more than we needed to put Mrs. Senator's together. If I can help just let me know

thanks bro! will do when i get back started on it.

i think everyone on every forum site was watching this auction! thats for sure

...turns out the owner didn't even want to sell it. He just wanted to run an experiment to see what it was worth. All the pages and pages of commentary that were on ebay attached to that auction outlined some dirty business on both sides of the auction. We read all that. For anyone else who did, that auction is going to leave a bad taste in their mouth for a while...

thats what i figured since i just saw it in dirt wheels what an ass hole though i would have been pissed if i was the high bidder it was like up to 86 k i was like wtf then it dropped so i have no idea whats going on with that...

The guy's not an asshole, he's a bona fide member of the trike community. Don't forget that all of those high bidders were bunk too. They all had excuses and bid retractions. The value of the trike never got established because of the bogus bids. Those were just people who wanted to see the reserve. Unfortunately, the reserve was set at a stupid high price because the owner had no intention of selling it. He also had no idea how many people would break the rules of ebay just to see a bogus reserve that doesn't mean anything. Since the reserve didn't mean anything and either did any of the bids, it ending up being nothing more than a frustrating exercise for anyone involved.
