    Did he send you a pic of the frame sticker? Its got different tank stickers, a 250r front fender, and does that headlight look wider then normal ones or is it just me??

    Ask him for some CLOSE UP pics.

    Anythings possible...there have been 88 Big Red 250ES's found...

    The only '88 is a big red made in Europe and OZ. Most likely its an '87 and over the years the owners got the year screwed up

    Holeshot and Trailpros. I wonder if it a good match?
    ATC 500x for that price I would buy it. Usually thay ask 1250$ for a 250sx in good condition.

    200X forks slide right into a 250SX tripple clamp.

    If the swinger has a hoop brace and a spinning brake drum it's an 85.

    If the swinger is sleek with one cross brace and an enclosed drum, it's an 86/87.
