87 250r 350x engines on ebay

[eh_tee_see]

Here we have 1 350x engine, and 1 250r engine, both brand new; apparently from 87 model ATCs

350x:

Am I correct in saying that the black 250R motor can only be an 85??

Still though, I'd like to have it.

Who wants to send the scathing letter telling him that atc's were never "outlawed", or "banned". Uneducated jackasses like this are the reason the CPSC can do the crap they do.

"Motor was taken out of a trike that was for sale new on the showroom floor when sale of these machines new was outlawed. This motor has only been test started after the trike was assembled. When the GOV banned sale"

Its not exactly spelled out word for word, but I got the impression he was referring to dealer sales being banned.

would that engine go into me 110

[trikerider2oo7]

would that engine go into me 110
with some seriously serious modifications, yes

[TrikerR]

how serious

[KASEY]

I DON'T SEE ANYWHERE ,,,where the guy said 1987 ,,,, where did that come from?
the 250r is a 85 ,,350x could be 85 or 86,,,

The buy it now price includes FREE UPS ground shippping to your door within the US mainland.

Geez for the $1,500 and $1,200 he's asking, the buyer should get a free rolling chasis with each engine.

[trikerider2oo7]

i'm with kasey. it doesnt say that theyre 87's and 85's could be still on the floor in 86

[350x'inNY]

The 350X looks to be a 86 motor from how the clutch cable is routed.

[eh_tee_see]

ah yes; thats why i said apparently

[86250RZ]

That 350X engine has been listed twice on e-bay already

[RichinMO]

He's just out for a quick buck. He bought those engines a couple of months ago for about $800 each from ebay user eventhorizons. I was watching the auctions then.

[threewheelin-feelin]

yeah i didnt see anything about 87 i did see 86 in there :rolleyes:

[plkmonster2]

What I find funny is that, in another one of his auctions for a R engine, there is a picture of a 250R in the background, lol. CHeck it out! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2483135758&ssPageName=MERC_VI

[eh_tee_see]

yeah i didnt see anything about 87 i did see 86 in there :rolleyes:
even if the motors truly were 87's which i am sincerely starting to doubt they are; they would have been removed in 86; the 87 250r' and 350x' were no doubt made in trace amounts IN 86 but not in 87 so OF COURSE it will say 86!

What keeps me from fully beleiving these aren't 86 or 85 engines is that there is no 87 200x or 250sx or big red engines on there even though those trikes were dismantled if they weren't sold by the date. Of course, this guy could be savvy on the 87' quest and could just be selling the 85 and 86 engines like everyone seems to think.

[threewheelin-feelin]

i know but still why would he even think it was a 87?

[threewheelin-feelin]

nevermind lol haha
