that thing is completely original, thats why its going for so much. I know a guy who has 15 or so trx250R's sitting in crates from the honda factory that he wont touch. He says he wont sell them until he is on his death bed and then give the money to his children

 

On the other hand, my one good friend came across a atc250R that the guy bought it and first time out riding it crashed it into a tree and hurt his back. It sat in a barn for the next 20 years. He got it for 500 bucks and all it needed was a headlight (casing was cracked), and a front fork. He rebuilt the engine because of how long it was sitting (hone and piston), but it probably would've started if we tried but we didnt want to scratch the cylinder.

 

I've tried to buy it off him twice now. 1st time was for 3 grand, and the second was for 2 grand and my one banshee. He just cant seem to part with the thing. It's still mint as can be, except for the pipe and bigger carburetor he put on it. We rip it around on the street for the fun of it sometimes with a spare set of tires on it
