@eagle nest i agree. Its no different thsn a firearm. If someone breaks the firearms saftey rules and shoots themselves or even does it intentionally the manufacturer can't be sued. They have a special exemption. I mean drain-o has a warning lable and its enough. Ford didn't stop making the f150 and I wiuld bet in any given year far mofe people were injured or killed than atv riders. This especially in the states, it a prime example of the legislation idiots being over reaching in the authority that has been given to them. You can purchased the ready to ride converted 450 dirt bikes that have been made into 3 wheelers. There is a company who is filling this part of the market and they are bad @ss.

@@FreedomInc that is some stupid shit, discontinuing 3 wheelers, I loved riding them, hangin off the side, drifting around snow covered streets, nothing better.

Had an 85. Wish I could have it back. Loved every minute riding that trike.

wow great job! My step father just passed "RIP Tom" and he left me his 1983 250r atc (been asking for years if he wanted to get rid of it but never said yeah not until now) it is in good shape for sitting for years all original and ready to be brought back to life. I've rebuilt one (an 83 actually) many years ago I did the whole restore, powder coat, rebuild, new plastics and all the good stuff so I was getting ready to do it again but I am got blown away by the increase in parts cost. last one I rebuilt I paid $150 for front and rear plastics and now it's 450 for just the rear wow the cost is gonna bankrupt me lol not really but it is more expensive then the first time. oh BTW my rebuild was a great build but no where near as nice as yours you did a fantastic job it looks brand new my hats off to you my friend.

Very inspiring. Awesome to see something restored back to 110% better after you know it had nothing but a hard life from off the showroom floor. Awesome work. True Craftsman and your eye for detail is on point.

That engine sound.... brings back so many memories. I still have my '85 ATC 250R that I bought new in August 1984

Would u like to sell it, my brother is not well and I would like him to ride his favorite toy from back in the day??? Would fulfill his final wishes. Love from Chicago

I remember in the 80’s when you got a bike it was bone stock and it stayed stock. I mean there was no internet to order parts and we did not have any money to modify it like you kids today. It was a feat to just get an ATC 250R. Parents did not lay the cash out like they do today for their kids. I will say if you needed parts you went to the junk yard or the dealer or you had to mail order from a company in back pages of dirt wheels magazine LOL. That was a royal pain in the arse. Like I said it was very rare to see bikes, quads and ATC’s worked out like you do today.

Its been my dream to do exactly what you did for most of my adult life. Dreamed about those things when they came out and I was 12. Great job, I am very jealous and hope to do the same still one day - R or a 350X at least.

Not one detail spaired! Great job, beautiful machine!

That’s what makes me very happy in life at 41 . Crazy how this three wheeler shit never gets old and never will . Yea om a young buck but I appricate all you good folk doin your part and holdin it down . Yeeee fuckkin hhaaaaaaaaaa!

Top shelf resto , really nice job !

Beautiful work and clean machine!

Great job, nice video, nice music!!!, and the Honda....WONDERFULLL!!! Congrats!!

Love the video an the toons. nice build I rode alot back in my younger years grew up as a teenager on these good times. Awsome .

Beautiful rebuild great video turned out great!!!!

Awesome totally awesome!! Thank you for reminding me of the greatest decade ever the 80’s. I have only one problem get rid of that Pittsburgh Steelers rally towel

Sweet build, brother. When I was a kid, these were my Mount Everest of toys. Unfortunately, they were beyond my parents' purchasing power. I did eventually get a used cr250 in the early 90s though.

What a beautiful machine the 85-86 ATC 250R

This was so satisfying, Thank you for sharing and keeping atc’s alive!!

Awesome video man, nice job, the trike looks great! Shared the vid!!

Greetings from Pittsburgh! Great job dude, it looks amazing! I love OEM + builds

I bought one of these brand new in 1985 . It was fast 40 hp,6 speed, water cooled , hydraulic brakes. It was like new when I sold it. I wish I had it back.

Aside from an 86 this is about the top of the totum pole for vintage bikes that deserve saving. Many were abused and neglected but Honda built um right and it shows. How sweet it would be if someone built an aluminum frame to resemble the dirt bike. Something about rolling into the throttle made it hard to stop. Before you know it you are going way faster than you should be. The factory oatsu tires were hard to beat also.

You ave no idea how much I enjoyed that on a Tuesday 5/6/2020 lunch break! Great work! AWESOME!

Perfect Soundtrack. Amazing Restoration

Beautiful atc, the proper way to rebuild these.

Beautiful bike and job well done!!!

Excellent build great choice of music

Awesome build looks great and still does Justice to the atc community

Gorgeous build Dan!

awesome 250R, always wanted one of these. maybe someday

Love that yu have your boy involved...

That’s spot on man. I’m always wary when a vehicle has been restored cause you’ve got no idea of the competence or diligence of the person who did it. I’m going to book my ticket to the USA and buy one off yer

That is one beautiful ride myman👍

That is so beautiful great job!!!

you have the best i have seen great work and a lot of it right super nice

Sweet job dude. AND SICK ASS TRIKE!!

Wow exceptional build

Way to do it up! Im still rocking my 86 350x

Beautiful myman,just beautiful

Great vid bro loved it grew up riding one

Beautiful job man!!

Very nice build, I would have a hard time letting her go!!

Holy smokes, My all time dream machine and the greatest ATV ever built!

Bro I grew up riding that same trike and a 350x two bikes I regret getting taken!!! That is a work of art you should put some video of you riding it. Makes me want to ride one. I can't afford it and no one has a trike

Excellent build

I'm surprised you can still find parts. I wish I could make you an offer that you couldn't refuse (no not at gun point🤣) for this,I had one in the early 90s and LOVED IT!

All I have to say is these are rare an wish id kept mine! Beautiful wheeler bro!!

Love that bike. Great job

Well done ! Like it !

well done man good job i got a 1984 250r im doing

If that bike had a p***y, id eat it! Lmao....beautiful!

Wow! If there is a detail you missed... not sure where. Great job on this. An 86 250r is my fantasy

Just perfect brother 🇺🇸

Damn dude. There's no way i could remember where everything goes. I would've left swingarm and wheels gold. Just my preference but that is a nice job on a nice bike

There it is thank you sir so grateful so much memories just in that picture right there 11:24 wow thank you 🙏🌎🌏🌍

I see you have the TMX carb on that bike. You need to change the emotion tube from #9 to a #7 This will take out all the the low end bog. And I have a needle I recommend you to run 16204-ksk-672 clip on top The needle is from cr250 2004 to 2007 400 main or 420 40 pilot Sea leave Very clean bike bud

Well done.

Very nice

Pretty!

Magnificent genius👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💖💖💖💖

Awesome

Top shape !!

whered you get such a nice overflow NOS?

How long did it take you to build all of it plus paint powder coating polishing chroming and rebuilding forks,,rear shock revailing tires

nice job...but why not make it period correct?...trying to turn an 85 into an 86

great song tooo

Nice!!!

That’s one bad ass bike and you are quite the mechanic wish you were my neighbor how the heck did you get the motor in with no damage to anything there all a pain to get out and in

I am goin to say its market value is now, $23,000.

Long live the 250R... 👍👍👍 #makeatcsgreatagain #teamwaxoffroad

All i can say is WOW

Where did you find most of the rebuild parts for this? I bought a 1986 250r that I'm going to rebuild with my kids and I was curious on stuff like the master cylinder rebuild and calipers,

Do you have a link for the swingarm linkage (dog bone) bushing rebuild kit?

Clean

Yeah I’m jealous... why the heck did they stop making these... crazy but

You do great work...Plus an AZ Boy....right on...me as well.... I have an 86 250R, 85 350X, 85 250 SX, two 85 200x, 1986 125m, 1985 125 m, 1985 70. My goal is one day to have one of each lining my garage wall. What part of Arizona are you from. May have a few questions for you?
