I've been looking to get my 92 Suzuki Quadracer back for almost a year now , and guess what I came across on Ebay?? My old bike is on there selling for $2650 US , thats like the amount I sold it for . I know the work that I put into this bike with a motor costing almost $2000 . The bike has made it from Northern Ontario Canada , down to Albany . Looks like I might be making a trip to get it back . Theres just something about it , that makes me want to take it back. Go check it out on Ebay . type in 250r as a search and itll come up near the bottom of the page.

I sold my 87 quadracer 500, and I see it now more than I did when I had it.:huh Sold it to a guy an hour and a half away, and he sold it to a guy at the end of my road, and now he rides past my house everyday.

Glad you found your bike back.

My old ATC 250R met it's fate after I sold it. The genius who bought it tried to go up a gravel pit hill and didn't make it.

i saw this warrior in the paper for $3000 and called the guy to ask when the best time was to come look at it and went over and that quad looks pretty good for a 2001 model so i might get it

The guy is selling it for the same amount I was asking for it . Has anyone ever bought a bike from out of the country?? How was it for all the paper work and stuff?? Is there any way to get around the rules and not pay duty fees and all that crap??

What would you declare if you took your machine into the states to ride? Maybe thats an idea.

Well I just talked to the guy that has my old bike and he'll sell it for $2400 US and it is still under my name in the ownerships , which means no hassle at the border. Does anyone know the exchange rate between Canadian and American currency right now?? If so switch $2400 US into Canadian currency. Thanks

I have a very similar story I built a 1988 250x and installed a 350x motor in it about 8years ago sold it to a friend who sold it locally then it was purchased again by a friend of mine aprox 30 miles from my home the kid trashed the bike and put it up for sale , and my brother bought it (short money) from him it now sits in my garage nearly fully restored to its former glory , 2001 300ex frame, every bearing seal clutch replaced, and brand new black red plastic, powerall pipe.
