    1985 ATC 250r Update "Ride Report" 2/23/14

    This was my first 250R I bought back in October 2006. Pretty much rode it everywhere, flat tracking, trails in Florida, Imperial Sand dunes, Northern AZ trails, Nevada Logandale trails, Dumont dunes, and local desert riding. Last year went to service the swing arm bolt and it was stuck! I did not want to build from the frame up but once I cut the bolt it was on. The build sat for too long and I finally got motivated to start building again. I have a couple builds going and this will be quickly followed by another.

    I could not be happier with the swing arm bushings, and TM designworks slider. Few more things on order this week and should be ready to fire up later this week or the weekend.

    Who'd you have do your tank? Who ever it was should have done a little better job around the filler neck.

    Nice bike. Those swingarm bushing should never let a bolt seize in there. I used them on my build for that reason.
