OK,I restore old ATVs...250Rs,Banshees,Quadracers...etc..etc.. Once I get my right thumb straightened out,Im looking to do some riding again. I have 2 trx250Rs up and running now,a 3rd that can be assembled,a 86 Quadracer,and possibly a 89 LT500R,anybody got any toys they want to play with???

 
Love how the 250r's look! I have an 04 350 raptor. Goes good fer a small one. Don't have a way to get it anywhere other than around here.

 
I've never been ATVing ... If you have a spare machine I can learn how to drive things pretty quick. I've always wanted to go.

I can weld or wire something in exchange...

 
I actually had to get rid of my ATV. I was slowly turning it into a hunting/deeper mud ATV though. A nice new wheeler is in store for me once I can afford it. If I still had one I would definitely be down for a ride somewhere.

 
I have a Honda Big Red 250. It's not as fast as yours, but it floats! I have towed my snowmobile home from my uncles (about 6 miles of trails, in the snow obviously) with it. I love that thing.

Both will be for sale once my youngest son heads off to college. Nobody rides them anymore.

I would,but honestly,a built 250R is NOT the machine to learn on. I started around 29 years ago on a Suzuki 125 with no suspension,and an auto clutch..rode that for quite a few years,then started riding a new 1988 200sx. If I would have had a 250R in 88 or 89,I wouldnt be typing this now..haha. But Id let you try it out in the yard,just to see why.

 
It's not that I'd try to ride it full out, but if I slipped and cracked that throttle all the way open on accident.... ya. Probably not a good scene.

 
This is playing in the yard!

Look at those meats on that thing... Sorry.. Can't afford anything newer. Would rather play with my bike on asphalt than buy a 4 wheeler and play in the mud.
