Honda XR description

1979 Honda XR 250 Enduro. This bike is NOT a museum piece, but is complete and  does run, shifts through all gears properly, clutch works fine. Gas tank is fair to decent condition. Overall all I would rate its condition as 6.5-7. While it is complete there are some things that need attention. They are:

1) Needs a carb rebuild the needle and seat leaks  if gas is left on
2) will need front and rear brake shoes

3) the previous owner for some unknown reason invented his own silencer out of hardware store  stuff.... it works but is quite ugly. An OEM muffler IS included with the sale


The good stuff:

1) overall it looks pretty nice ( but NOT a museum piece )
2) has NEW chain and sprockets

3) has NEW Maxis Rear tire
4) Has excellent compression


With a small amount of minor rep[air you can hit the trails with confidence OR restore it to museum quality condition. With the few little things it needs
 fixed, I would not hesitate to ride it all day!!


Please Note: There is NO title. Sold with notarized bill of sale ONLY


It is located in Baldwinsville, NY 13027 and pick up is the SOLE responsibility of the buyer. I can deliver it for a FEE within 5 hours from Baldwinsville, NY however you must contact me BEFORE you buy it to make that arrangement. D O   N O T   spring it on me AFTER the sale!!!

You are welcome to come look at it in person. Most sellers will not tell you what the reserve price is. I will. The reserve is set at $1375.00

Valentino Rossi is back on the podium. Not a MotoGP podium, mind, but for a rally car race at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy. (Post updated with video.) Driving a Ford Fiesta RS with co-driver Carlo Cassina, Rossi won two of nine stages and finished second overall to eight-time World Rally Car Champion Sebastien Loeb at the 2011 Monza Rally Show.

Hot on-board laps of Cadwell with Josh Brookes

Thu, 30 Sep 2010

You've got to be reasonably mental to ride a 200bhp Superbike on slicks around the narrow cart track that is Cadwell Park. We've met Josh Brookes a few times and we can vouch that he qualifies highly for the task in hand. That's a compliment, by the way.
