    Been working on my 1986 TRX 250R

    Well this was an ebay find.......first pic is how I received it....really nice low hour machine but had scuffed plastics, aftermarket pipe, and nerf bars. Because I am an OEM junkie I had a bunch of NOS in storage because I knew I would get one of these eventually. I have some more NOS decals coming and the search continues for the rest...gave harlan a call also Someday it will be broken down and redone....no time soon, to many other things on my plate. Still really nice to look at.

    BTW anyone ever hear of an LCS hand made header pipe..thats what it came with...no dents
