I have a ? for you honda guys?What color was the frame on a 89 trx 250r?I have found 89 model with this list of parts,What do you guy think it is worth?It has White power front shocks with piggy back resivors that are adjustable.It has stainless steel braded lines, plus 2 up one inch a-arms made by Leager's, it has all the original plastic that is in very good condition (front plastic is race cut), it has gradon pro line nerf bars, lonestar steering stem with denton steering stabalizer, answer pro taper bars with anti-vibration lonestar handle bar mount, DG rear grab bar, it has got an adjustable expansion chamber, white brothers silencer, it has a chrome plated plus 2 durablue axle with posi lock axle nut, durablue brake hub, durablue sprocket hub, it has bead lock rims on the rear with reinforced bead ring, rear shock has also been modified with a larger stem diameter from white power, it has turf tamers on the rear, front tires unknown on stock rims, with brand new 89 crank assembly with ct jug and a cool head cylinder head.Here is the bad news; the motor was fired up and blowed the head gasket.Come to find out, the cyliinder head studs had pulled out of the jug.Is there anyway this cylinder could be repaired or does a new cylinder need to be purchased?thankx kevin.

you have the right year for sure, but i'd be a little hesitant on that one. I didn't even know White Brothers made silencers for two strokes...Look around for a while, like CBW said, the 250r's will be dropping in value with these new quads coming out. Great time for buyers.
