So I saw this in the fall on Craigslist. Person wanted 400.00 Went up to see it and after looking it over had second thoughts. Seemed it needed some work, not running. The jug was loose, etc. The kid said he bought it from someone, but never ran it. So I was skeptical. In the mean time went an bought a 200x '85. And couldn't be happier. So Long story short Ive been out at Pismo Beach California this week for Work and his trike popped back up 2 days ago. Offered him $300.00 tonight. and of course he took it. Now headed home on the red eye. Wondering if I should go pick up this weekend.

What do you think?

His craigslist ad reads

1984 ATC250R ATC 250R 3 Wheeler 2 Stroke Project -

Hey Guys,

I have a 1984 ATC250R. This is an aircooled 250 2-stroke.

It does not run and will need a new piston/rings.

The bike is 90% there and will need some odds/ends to be complete/running. Its 27 years old... so everything is in USED condition.... It will need maintenance items such as brakes, bearings, chain, ect.

It has an aftermarket tank, silencer and rear holeshot tires.

It will need some cleaning and TLC to make it nice again!

I paid $600 for a non-running "parts bike" in much worse shape than that - you got a great deal for $300 regardless!!!
