    New pictures of the 87 250r

    This picture doesn't look like much at first glance. It was sent to me from one of the employees of Honda who worked at this wearhouse where they tore apart and destroyed most of the 87 ATCs, and if not all of the 87 250Rs. They would remove the engines out of the crate trikes and crush the rest. You can see the 250R motors behind the crates on the top left. The R engines were available as complete crate engines through Honda for a while he claimed. He also said the ATCs that really caused the ban was the little 70s. They were even the first to be destroyed, before the 250Rs. And that's why the government cracked down on Honda so hard, he mentioned that government officials might have even taken some 87 Rs for themselves and kept them from the public. That might explain that one ad that mentions a "U.S. Serviceman." The adventures continue...

    Lol, in my Moms later years she had a magnifying glass by her chair for reading,as does my Sister now. Maybe it's time for me. Although I see fine.. I can't make out a single Honda part in that pic. You are serious right? Honda kept the tires/rims/forks/plastic,seats and engines before crushing anything.

    It was funny, but I can see a few recognizable pieces. I can see a utility trike shifter and the handle of a recoil starter in the lower right hand corner. The shifter may be in front of a differential that kind of looks like what an atc 200es had (this is all a big MAYBE). I can also make out what appears to be the kicker on a 250r sticking up at the very top in the upper left hand corner. The guy on the left side looks like he's arabic, just with no turban.
