1981 honda atc 250r

I would buy it in an instant. In running condition that bike is worth at least $1000, mint would be around $2500. The repairs you could do yourself if you're mechanically inclined, and would be about $300. It may be a peice of junk right now, but it is a good bike if you know how to ride a trike. I have a '83 atc 250r and have owned it for 10 years and will never sell it. Although parts may be hard to find. Do some research on the motor parts, the others you can get at your local bike shop.

Unless you can do all the work yourself don't buy it. Yes it is a piece of junk. If it needs all those things how can it be running? It would be better to buy a bike that doesn't need so much work. When I bought my bike all it needed was steering bearings. They were a bit worn out, but other than that it ran perfectly. I was riding about 5,000 miles a week and the bike had to go to the shop about once a month for maintenance.
