Couldn't pass up the deal on this 86. Seems like it sure is the time to buy with Christmas coming up ...so many cheap bikes out there for sale. Anyway might take it down and powdercoat or might just leave it and have fun. I'm guessing the pipe should be run inframe? Haven't had an ESR but figured it's mounted wrong. Here she is.

Lol what a way to make a pipe fit. Cut a bunch of pla off also some people. Nice looking quad though

Yeah I sure thought that was a crappy way to fit that pipe. Those tires are the old school fast trekkers, rear is a 10" wheel. Hopefully will have some time to give it some love this weekend but it does seem to run/ride great. Glad I came across it.

What the .... ? That silencer is too short ??? The whole exhaust is mounted wrong.....Looks like they mounted a center-mount silencer to a standard pipe......If you can find another 250R Silencer.....compare the two and you'll see the difference.....It's a real shame they CUT NICE OEM PLASTIC!!!! :(

Apex...the rears are 18x11x10, fronts are 21's


Langbolt....It does make me sick. I've restored some Honda plastics on a couple of my trikes and know that these could be worked to a really nice shine. I can't complain though. I didn't pay much of anything for the bike and it runs/rides incredibly nice.

It's a center mount I like it for the look and with a shorter stinger it suppose to keep the engine temps cooler
Nice looking r

It's definitely a center mount pipe but he didn't have the center mount kit

So I need the center mount kit and I'm assuming you ditch the airbox with the center mount pipe? Maybe I'll just order the the other pipe and stick this one on my other bike. I think I'd like to keep the airbox on this one.
