After searching craigslist and reading on here and on the trx250r site I finally got off my fanny and bought an R!
It is an 88 that has been pretty much unmolested as far as I can tell! All the lights work and are in there original locations! It runs paint is original I rate it at a 5? Plastic gets a 7.

It came with 2 extra sets of tires and rims plus the ones on the bike
an extra rear carrier
an extra handle bar
It has 450r shocks
I got the original shocks also
It came with an fmf fatty pipe and turbine core 2 silencer on the bike.
Plus a FMF sst pipe and extra fmf silencer.
It has vforce 3 reeds
a 39 mm lectron carb
I also got the stock carb for it.
I have the original books and bill of sale
the factory honda maintenance manual.
And a few other things...
All for 2500.00
Can you guys tell me how I did? To high fair bargin? I always wonder after the purchase...
Any ways I am soon going to start getting it set up for xc so expect lots of questions!
God Bless,
Dustin Drews
