hey guys i sold my 87 and picked up this basically stock 1989 trx250r. the mods to it are bark busters, prm bumpers, full prm skids. holeshots all around.
the guy said he bought it in 93 completely rebuilt it in 94 and rode it maybe 20hrs since then. i believe it, every bearing/busing is tight and gave me receipts from the local honda dealer. he also gave me a slew of extras a pt 89 race pipe, answer type 2 silencer, what i think is a dyna port exhaust. a cylinder that was ported for xc with a shaved head and 68mm bore. 2 sets of unopened brake pads and manual. it is also titled in my name now.

Nice!

I remember when I bought my '88 back in '99 (heh). I had to drive from Atlanta to Virginia to get it, and it took a grand to get it trail worthy.

Looks super sweet and well preserved.

When I got mine in 92, I gave it a basic check. It ran great around the block. Then off to Glamis, long story short, had small hole in stock filter. Sand + hole= grenaded motor, top end and crank. Hope yours has no hidden probs, sounds like previous owner was on the ball. though!!
