    Question 1985 250R two-page magazine ad?

    I already checked the ads page but no luck.

    Does anyone have an old magazine with the 1985 250R ad that pictures the trike on top of a mountain? The text was something like, "we invented the ATC, now we've perfected it" or something like that. The main part of the ad was a two page image (closeup of the trike) but I think there might have been a page that was like a teaser on the page immediately preceeding the main ad.

    I still remember seeing that image for the first time. I was mesmerized by it. I even cut it out of the magazine and hung it on my wall. If anyone could manage to produce a good quality scan of that ad, you'd be my hero.

    A scan of the (I *think*) 1985 Baja 1000 coverage (the year the '85 250R won) from Dirtwheels would completely rule too.

    Long shot but worth asking.

    Does anybody else even remember seeing this ad? If I'm the only one I'm gonna feel really old.

    Thumbs up Nice 250r!

    That trike just OOZES potential.

    I'd LOVE to have that ride in my garage.
    I'm dying for a 250R to restore.
    Love my 350X to death but every time my neighbor gets out his 250R, I just stare and drool.

    Good luck on the ad!

    I've been trying to find '85 350X ads forever! With no luck.

    Thanks! It feels good to be fixing it up after so long. Hard to believe it's nearly 20 years old (and I've had it for all but about three or four of those years).
