do you have a link to the auction? 2k sounds average to me. I have seen trx250r's sell in the 4-5k range, just depending on what its got.

Messed up with the post that is the item # on ebay motors and the cost is $85,000 for two never used TRX250 R's one 88 and one 89

oh wait I found it, 85K for the pair, that is a bit out of my budget :blink:

Think that is a bit out of anyones budget, there is a guy in Atoka Tn that has an 86 250R 3 wheeler that lokes brand new, can get it for $2000

Thats Freakin CRAZY!

They're nice, but I would say he will be keeping them for a while.

holy crap! i would think 20,000 would be a high price for them. they are pretty sweet though. i dont know if its still there or not but the other day i found an atc 250r still in its original shipping crate on ebay. the starting bid was 16,000 i think, and the last time i looked it was over 30,000.

What makes them sooo valuable?

 

[tomgodd]

People think they are the best quad made by Honda. ITs old technology. Not to start a fight but its a Fanboy thing. Like the arguements over the Glock pistols and Colt 1911 pistols.
They are comparing apples and oranges persay.

What is old technology on them? stock for stock, They hang pretty well with 450r's. I think if anything they were ahead of their time.

I would Agree with you. It is just something made in the late 80s, thats why I say that its old tech. I know they are a big part of keeping MX/sport atv riding alive. I use to have a Kawi T4. I would like to have it now. They have a hugh fanbase too.

Yeah there is really not so much that can be done to them to make them more modern. suspension will probably always be evolving I guess. I wonder sometimes if the thumpers had more to do with dealers servicing and repair costs than environmental factors. Makes business sense, but I want something with the least amount of moving parts for extended reliability.

 

[dkmccreight]

They were up to 100K when I looked at them at 1030PM

 

[Redracer]

The 250R is one of the, if not the best quad ever made. It's handling is extremely crisp, even by today's standards. The geometry of the frame is the best geometry on a quad, they will handle just about any 4 stroke on the market. Those things belong in a museum

 

[shadetree]

just now looked at them..as of right now...125k !!!!..screw that..he can keep them..lmao.

 

[mud99]

I was amazed that someone would even ask a crazy price like that.

 

[Redracer]

They will get it.
