hey guy's. This is my first thread on this site. Last April I had my race quad stolen from me (If I had known about this site earlier I would have posted sooner). At the time I lived in Prescott, AZ. which is about 100 mile north of Phoenix. I now live in Tucson. The quad has a black painted frame, with stock plastic, but the front fenders are race cut. Before it was stolen I had a buyer willing to pay $6000 for it, and it is worht every peny! It is believed that it was either taken to nothern New Mexico, or Anthem (suberb of Phoenix). There is an award for finding this quad. If you could, please keep your eyes open! my e-mail is cray_ugly_coyote@gotmail.com thankyou very much!

1986 TRX 250R
Fox Racing Shock's
Stock chain gaurd on case (pretty rare)
major internal work

 

well the guy that was gonna buy it was proably the one who stole it!

 

Already checked out that option. We know who stole it, and have whitnesses who saw it with him, but the polive and sheriff office is really f-ed up around here. so now my only hope to to recover the bike.

 

if it was stolen, the quad was prob parted out on ebay. plus an 87 R is no where near being worth $6000. hope you find them and keep them from taking others.

 

all of the mods i had done to the engine, and frame made it over 6 grand. It can smoke most banshees that i came up against, and the 450R couldnt tuch me. It was dynoed at 107 HP on AV fuel.

 

I dont know about 107 hp. That seems a bit high.

 

There is no need to lie....there is no way you made that much power. Even with a big bore kit.

 

no joke, 107HP? who did the work? what set up? anyother suspension mods other then the fox shocks? a curtis sparks national built 250r makes about 55-58hp i beleieve.

sucks it got stolen and i hope you find it, but an 86 r will not bring $6000. cinsidering a brand new quad is $6000.

an 86r can bring 6k. mine busted to hell brought 2k; thing wasn't even running.

 

yeah I sole my old 250r three wheeler for 3 grand and the plastics were off

 

when did you sell them? since the yfz was released last year you cant give these things away, if someone payed $6000 for a stock framed 250r they are an idiot.

 

 

I sold mine about 3 years ago maybe 4

 

that explains it, back then the R was still the best quad out there for the track, they were mainly picked up for the motor, and wiring, unless a collector picked it up. you wouldnt believe what the motors went for. ive got friends with a powervalve 250r curtis sparks motor just sitting in their shop.

i sold mine rather than fix & keep it when i moved across the country.

 

catch them and cut their ***** off

 

I had an 87 250r that wasnt really in that great of shape and I got $3500 for it over 3 years ago. I think the 1989's are worth the most.

 

3 years ago you could find them for that price, but once yamaha released the yfz, and now honda has the 450r, people are just pretty much scrapping them, they cant be raced in the pro classes anymore, they wont fit into the production class at nationals, plus they are slower then the new 4 strokes out on the track. i couldnt get but maybe $3500 out of my 310, 250r if im lucky.
