    Need some good advice: '85 250es big red

    Hello there,

    A friend of mine Chris, he is selling his 1985 Honda 250es bigred for $800 buck to me but now Chris's dad wanting selling Big Red for $950

    Here is some details about this big red

    He bought it brand new back in 1985 and he used that bike for hunting all it life.

    Here is bad parts

    He left that big red outside nearly 3 years and it all rustly big red and it still running strong. and the fenders cracked too and it been fixed the fenders.

    So what you guys think about that? Should i buy it for $???

    Thanks Kevin.

    red

    if it is your intention to have a utility machine ,,, i'd say you probly won't be able to do much better then 950. original owner ,,, adult riden.


    if your wanting to race or do jumps, wheelies, big hill climbs ,,, it shouldn't be even considered for purchase.

    i have nearly 1800 into my restro ,,, but it is gonna be with me a longgg time cause i love it to death ,,, i have another machine that i can screw myself up on if i feel the need - lol.
