Hi guys,

I got the price of the 250es down from $1500 to $1150! I thought that is a pretty good deal. Here are some more pictures.

That's a really good deal especially for a 87 250es I never saw a 87 around here, they sound pretty rare, and it looks like its been treated good, looks just like the decals faded. But looks good

Well I have seen 2 in the last 2 months but they weren't in too good shape. I have seen 3 overall so far but none in good condition.

really nice bike man, keep it that way, she survived this long, dont kill her now

i suggest to everyone who has one of these original untouched 250 sx/es engines check your timing chain slack. it was hondas first try at a self adjusting timing chain and unfortunately they dont seem to go very far. i have seen quite a few engines get too loose and jump teeth, bending valves and one cracked the piston when it hit the valve. check it out

Give the racks and headlight guard a fresh coat of black paint - it will look a lot better. I like the "Super Red" decal...that's cool!

BTW - is that a horn below the headlight on the right side? I have an '85 250ES and don't have one of those.

I don't think it's a horn. I have one on my 86 250es and it does nothing...

Why is it that we can find 87 and 88 big reds but not any 87 250r's or 350x's?

What is the "super red" decal all about? Looks original...
