I was flipping thru Dirt Wheels today when I saw a picture of a COMPLETELY restored 250R. Right away i recognized the picture, sure enough it was Richs R. Anybody else see it?


Nice job on getting into DW

Congrats Rich. That magzine should have more old school bikes in it. I might subscribe again if they would. :ermm: I guess the four strokes are paying the bills now.

Thanks guys. :D They're looking for an all stock 250R to thrash and shoot-out with a stock 450R. They'll have to keep looking.:p

That shootout would suck. The 250r in pure stock form is an amazing bike, but nothing special as far as today's out of the box performance standards. If they did a shootout, imo, they would have to give like a $1000 mod budget for each quad, cause that would even the gap. You can improve the performace of a 250r with a little money way easier than any 4 stroke. Stock for stock i would put any amount of money on the 450r. (even though i love the 250r:D )



btw, congrats on the article....i saw that too!

Ya i just seen that on the ****ter the other night. man that sucker is nice. wish it was mine. i would let them compare it to the newer thumpers. but id say give me a 20k downpayment for when you mess it up and i want the quad back, just a thought.

ya that would be a pretty cool shootout, but I gotta agree with what A A R O N wrote.

:chinese: and you shoulda let em use your quad for the article. Make em pay for whatever they break. :chinese:

I have a very modded 250R...with all kinds of money in it....and the outta box 450R is real close if not beats the 250R in some situations......so I agree with A A R O N
