It looks kinda cool but stupid at the same time. I am undecided...but hate the mudflaps!

"AT THE MOST IT'S GOT 40 HOURS ON REBUILD"

Wow, only 40 hours on a fresh rebuild and it's only overdue for another by 10 hours or so.

If it wasn't for the blue seat & fork boots, that thing would have better camouflage than the Iraqi Republic Guard.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the board, but am hoping to win this thing. I've wanted a 250R project for a long time, so hopefully this is it!!!! Still the high bidder as of now, hope it stays where it is!!! I used to have an 85 back in the day....Brings back some great crazy memories. Tha camo plastic is first to go...LOL :beer

You could probably use a fine grit sand paper to get the camo off and use that plastic as beater plastic. I wish it was closer to me.

I bet a pressure washer will take that crap off. It worked for a few camo jobs I had to reverse. I still have no idea why people do that. How stupid do you have to be to go through with such a thing?

Congrats. Lets see some pics of that when you get it. It kind of looks like a woods racer with the mud flaps. How far do you have to drive to get it?

HOLY *&^%$#(*&^%$ !@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :Bounce :Bounce :Bounce

I finally have a 250R again!!!!!!!! :Bounce :Bounce :Bounce

Thanks everyone for cheering me on, I really means alot expecially being a new guy on here!!!!! :D

I was hoping it would stay cheap......But I knew I would get it with my last minute snipe!!!!!!!!!!!!! :beer ( I didnt really need it, but always good insurance...lol)

Its about a 4 hour drive for me to get it, I already talked to the owner (old owner) a few days ago and he said I can go up to get it tomorrow!!!!
The guys at work even gave me the day off!!!!!! A new 250R and a 3 day weekend!!! Who could ask for more!!! Lots of support from everyone!!!!!!! Thanks so Much.

I dont have internet access at home right now, ( I came all the way back to work just to bid on it!!!!!) but I will update everyone and post before and after pics......I think it will be a 100% improvement just with the camo and mudflaps removed !!!!!! ;)

Thanks again everyone!!!!!! I havent felt this good in a long time!!!!!

Have a great weekend!!!!!

Cool, Thanks Paul, Sounds good. The trip up to MD was LOOOOOOONG!!!!! But its home and a blast to ride!!! I forgot how crazy these things are!!! :TrikesOwn

I'll give you a call this week to talk to you about those parts, the bike is pretty complete, but you may have a better upgrade for some things. I need to look around for a new rear axel, this one has a slight bend to it. Other than that, its sweet!!! :beer
