1985 ATC 250R Honda

These bikes were rocket ships



I rode them around up at Stonyford and remember roosting the corners and just plain having fun. Richard was with me sometimes and like always we gave each other a bad time about who was faster. I always won. He rode a ???? I forget because it was always behind me but man was he fast when I blew by him.

I took this unit out to my brothers just after buying it and he wanted to ride it. I told him to be careful but he hit the throttle and looped it when the thing had less than a few hours on it. He tweaked the steering head and it never rode the same. I hate crashed bikes. Even though they could be alright I always feel they are not and never feel comfortable again.
