Hey all, for those interested, i have a nearly 100% original, fully documented, almost flawless 1981 ATC250R just posted to Ebay. The images and documentation speak for itself. Just off the showroom floor, rode for a couple of short rides here and there but mostly sitting for 34 years. Contact me directly if you have questions.

This machine looks absolutely phenomenal. I passed the torch some time ago to pursue my other rare builds. Countless hours were spent acquiring these parts. I called every dealer in Canada one winter, Pete overseas was a great help and that one little dealer down South had a great number of parts before I cleaned them out. Mike at Vintage did top notch work. I remember the day he delivered the parts to my house. I set them all up in my great room ( the famous photos). Much of it was assembled here at my place 80 % then it went back to Mikes to be finished after I sold it. When I set out to do this I wanted a tribute to a historically significant machine that started the 250r craze. I am glad to see it done and in all of its glory!!! RIP Norm!

Beautiful job on the restoration. I also have an 81 250R nearly all original except for rear wheels, a few chromed parts and exhaust. I have owned it for over 30 years and spent many hours riding it. Fast bike, a beauty to ride.

I have a original 1981 250r, I need to paint the rims and get some new tires. Where can I get the same or similar original tires and what is the paint code (would a 1985 250r swing arm arm have the same paint code??)????

I'm looking for the rebuild kit for a 1981 atc 250 converted to a 300, I have no idea what size the piston is, but if anyone knows where i can find one, that would be greatly appreciated.
