Trading my snowmobile for this Motorcyle. Trade made, new pics 56k grab a noose
 
Trading my old ass perfect conditioned 1982 Moto-Ski snowmobile 500cc for a bike identical to this. Even has the pink stripe ;)

250s are homo but oh well.. a bike is a bike..

only if you plan on making a cart with the motor and boosting the bitch, other wise that bike was lame when it was produced

You get the biggest pieces of trash...fucked up swapped CRX and now a bike that looks like something Richard Simmons would be seen riding on with his boyfriend on the back. Damn when will you realize your a failure at life and the biggest joke on HMT?

Yall youngin's have to understand...
in the 80's what was hot were the hot pink, teal & aqua decals. zig-zag, slashing, and early computer generated graphics (cones, sphere's, pyramids, etc, etc) that was new ---- then.



Anywho, put a turbo on it & call it badass. or do like he said, use the bike to build something else.

looks like it's in pretty good shape, i'd pick it up and try to make some money off of it. it's ancient ass bike thats going to be balls ------- slow and impossible to find parts for when you ---- it up. if it was a 2-stroke it'd be cool, but it isn't and it's not.

when i see people riding bikes as gay as that, i laugh. but also feel bad for them because i know everyone else is laughing at them too.

Re: Trading my snowmobile for this Motorcyle. *pics*
 
The bike is clean and has very little miles on it, and i'm trading it for a snowmobile that might bring 400 bucks tops where I live. To me it's a good trade, even if the bike is top gun material ;)

NOW THAT'S A HONDA THAT DEFINITELY NEEDS AN ENGINE SWAP. It's a good looking bike(if it's in GOOD shape) but a 250 4stroke?? That's gonna be waaaay slow. I wish I lived somewhere that got enough snow to constitute ownin' a snowmobile...I'd have 1 :y

I had a 250 ninja for a few months back in 2000. their sloooow. about as fast as a stock gsr. Only thing that was fun about it was jumping it over handicap ramps and stuff on the street their light enough you can hold the front end up.

Dude the bikes out of style period. But atleast it's clean. I wouldn't go screwing it up with a can of spray paint to make it look like ass. Leave it alone and enjoy it. Just except that it's not an 08 gsxr 1000 and it never will be.......ride it save some gas money.

Hahahah I love the brakes on the bike. lol. Just goes to show how gay and worthless that Fisher Price "My first motorcyle" is. Can you use like bicycle tires on that thing cause those are pizza cutters if I ever saw some. You'd probably have more fun on this

Looks like someone took very good care of it...I'd say that was a good trade...Please don't f@ck it up and try to spray it with can spray paint or anything like that...I wonder if a 2 stroke 500cc CR dirtbike engine would fit in there??

Bike will be kept bone stock, and i'll be driving it around town/country driving during the summer. I might even leave that pink vinyl.

listen to me man, you've got something that you can make some money off of. sell it before it before you ---- it up. i absolutely support 250's for first bikes, but not when they can make some money. some jerk off that thinks old ass slow bikes are cool will buy it for 3k and brag about it to his friends, so let him.

250's are fun if you can actually ride, and go show up a bunch of squids on brand new 600s but if you're just getting started you're just going to get pissed with it in a week and want something else. sell that POS to some sucker and go buy a bike you'll enjoy.

You know you could spend $12 on Ultracote, Monokote, etc type iron on coverings that we use on R/C aircraft.
They iron on and peel off with heat so easy removal...
I always preffered ultracote. It's lighter & irons on much easier, not nearly as hard to remove air pockets.

I would suggest that if you wanna rock the bike, but not change it.



You know I remember bikes like that... If I lived in a big city, I'd rock it... Bikes don't have to be fast to be fast in traffic, plus it's almost worthless if it get's stolen in the first year, and it prolly get's tons of gas mileage.

have you tried to take it on the highway yet? i wonder if 55 is a resonable cruising speed

I havent even gotten my permit to drive the thing yet. Guy I got it off of says it drives fine out on the highway, 55ish.. I probably wouldn't take it much over that anyway.. it's a little bike

That 250 I had years ago would cruise fine at about 80.

i had a 125 yamaha dirt bike when i was a little kid that'd do 50-55 with me on it. im sure it'd do well over 55...

that may be your opinion, however the OP is being smart and limiting his bike so that he may get a solid riding base of skill to learn on and move up. I don't see why everyone is saying get a better one, one that you will enjoy.. Why? So he can drop that one, the one he will invest more in, one that will have more power and be more dangerous to a first timer? He is being smart and mature about learning how to ride a bike. It's pretty clear he is not selling it or moving up right now, so if you have any more negative comments, just keep them to yourself.

@ OP Good beginners bike :) You will enjoy a 250 as you learn and improve your skill. They are LOTS of fun in the twisties :)

take the fairings off, make a custom cage-12 bar and throw a sprocket on there and stunt the bitch if it even gets up there

that bike makes about 20bhp. and does what? 70mph falling off a cliff? do listen to the man about the CR500 motor. I own a CR500, they vibrate soo bad an old man would lose his dentures. maybe these pics will help.
